2r + 2s = 50
2r - s = 17
-----------subtract
3s = 33
s = 11
2r - s = 17
2r - 11 = 17
2r = 28
r = 14
so r = 14 and s = 11
answer is C. r = 14, s = 11
I assume that the parabola in this particular problem is one whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y axis. The formula we're going to use in this case is (x-h)2=4p(y-k). We know variables h and k from the vertex (1,20) but p is not given. However, we can solve for p by substituting values x and y in the formula with the y-intercept:
(0-1)^2=4p(16-20)
Solving for p, p=-1/16.
Going back to the formula, we can finally solve for the x-intercepts. Simply fill in variables p, h and k then set y to zero:
(x-1)^2=4(-1/16)(0-20)
(x-1)^2=5
x-1=(+-)sqrt(5)
x=(+-)sqrt(5)+1
Here, we have two values of x
x=sqrt(5)+1 and
x=-sqrt(5)+1
thus, the answers are: (sqrt(5)+1,0) and (-sqrt(5)+1,0).
Step-by-step explanation:
"Of" means multiplication, and percent means out of 100.
25/100 × 150 = 700/100 × n
75/2 = 7n
n = 75/14
n ≈ 5.357

Answer:
$465
Step-by-step explanation:
100 - 50/3 = 250/3
250/3 ÷ 100 = 5/6
$387.50 ÷ 5/6 = $465
