Since the 37 is negative the parabola will open downward.
The coefficient on the outside of the ^2 tells you if it opens up or down. If it's positive it opens upward and if it's negative it opens downward.
For the parabola to open sideways it would be a form of x = y^2
(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (|x| + 9 ) + (-6) =
|x| + 9 - 6 = |x| + 3
Answer is |x| + 3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3
When the culture was created t = 0, thus
3
= 3 × 1 = 3
That is there were initially 3 bacteria in the culture → A
Answer: Option #4: the 0.2 could be changed to 2.
Explanation:
The table is designed to make the concept of percentages more understandable. The table first allocates the total amount of 70 in terms of its "fifths," or 20% parts. Then it expresses these parts in the last row of the table, showing that 20% of 70 is 14 and all the five parts sum up to 70 again.
Now, Mikel is supposed to express 40% of the amount. So she writes (incorrectly): 0.2 * 14. This statement needs to be changed to 2 * 14 (two times 14 = 28), to correspond to 2 times 20%, or 40% of 70.
This is reflected in the last (fourth) option "The 0.2 in the expression could be changed to 2."
Option #3 is incorrect because changing 14 to 70, will result in an incorrect number (2.8).
Options 1 and 2 are similarly incorrect (as can be easily verified)
