Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X is an unknown variable so just leave x as it is

Because the (2x) and the (7x) are being multiplied together they are almost seen as their own category of things

Think about having two bananas in a bowl. I just threw in seven more to get a total of nine bananas in the bowl.

It's the same thing when you have a variable right next to a number! add them together as if they are alike terms.

2+7=9 therefore your answer should be 9x

Two boats depart from a port located at (–8, 1) in a coordinate system measured in kilometers and travel in a positive x-directi

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}y=-\dfrac{1}{9}x^2 +\dfrac{2}{9}x+\dfrac{89}{9}\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2 -7\end{array}\right.$

Step-by-step explanation:

1st boat:

Parabola equation:

$y=ax^2 +bx+c$

The x-coordinate of the vertex:

$x_v=-\dfrac{b}{2a}\Rightarrow -\dfrac{b}{2a}=1\\ \\b=-2a$

Equation:

$y=ax^2 -2ax+c$

The y-coordinate of the vertex:

$y_v=a\cdot 1^2-2a\cdot 1+c\Rightarrow a-2a+c=10\\ \\c-a=10$

Parabola passes through the point (-8,1), so

$1=a\cdot (-8)^2-2a\cdot (-8)+c\\ \\80a+c=1$

Solve:

$c=10+a\\ \\80a+10+a=1\\ \\81a=-9\\ \\a=-\dfrac{1}{9}\\ \\b=-2a=\dfrac{2}{9}\\ \\c=10-\dfrac{1}{9}=\dfrac{89}{9}$

Parabola equation:

$y=-\dfrac{1}{9}x^2 +\dfrac{2}{9}x+\dfrac{89}{9}$

2nd boat:

Parabola equation:

$y=ax^2 +bx+c$

The x-coordinate of the vertex:

$x_v=-\dfrac{b}{2a}\Rightarrow -\dfrac{b}{2a}=0\\ \\b=0$

Equation:

$y=ax^2+c$

The y-coordinate of the vertex:

$y_v=a\cdot 0^2+c\Rightarrow c=-7$

Parabola passes through the point (-8,1), so

$1=a\cdot (-8)^2-7\\ \\64a-7=1$

Solve:

$a=-\dfrac{1}{8}\\ \\b=0\\ \\c=-7$

Parabola equation:

$y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2 -7$

System of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}y=-\dfrac{1}{9}x^2 +\dfrac{2}{9}x+\dfrac{89}{9}\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2 -7\end{array}\right.$

If a company has 5 employees with annual salaries of 30000 50000 30000 80000 and 70000 respectively what is the mean annual sala

Marina86 [1]

The answer is 52,000.

You have to add all of the values and divide them by the number of values. In this case you would do 30,000 + 50,000 + 30,000 + 80,000 + 70,000 which equals 260,000 then you would divide that number by 5 since there are 5 values.
