Mrs. T = (4 *12) - 5 = 43

4 times Sophia's age, she's 12, is 48, and 5 years less than that is 43.

12 × 4 = 48 - 5 = 43

2x+14= -21-5x<br> Need to find out what x is but a step by step explanation please
adoni [48]
Notice how on both sides of the equation there is one coefficient (number being multiplied by x) and a constant (just a plain number). You want all constants to be on one side and all coefficients on the other. He’s how do to that:
2x+14=-21-5
I am choosing that all constants will be on the right side, so I will do the inverse operation of any constant on the left side to remove it. Here, a constant on the left side is 14. I will subtract 14 from both sides of the equation. Positive 14 minus 14 is zero, so it cancels out and removes it.
2x+14-14 = -21-5x
2x = -35-5x
See how the 14 is now gone? The equation looks much simpler now. Okay next, you can see that there is a coefficient on the “constant side” that I’ve chosen, so I am going to remove that. Negative 5 plus positive 5 equals zero. Do this on both sides of the equation.
2x+5x = -35-5x+5x
7x = -35
Now the equation is just two numbers. All that is left to do is divide by the last coefficient, 7, in this case.
7x/7 = -35/7
x = -5

Write the equation of the parabola below
lorasvet [3.4K]
Answer:
Equation is: y = 0.5x² + 0.5x - 3

Explanation:
general form of the parabola is:
y = ax² + bx + c

Now, we will need to solve for a, b and c.
To do this, we will simply get points from the graph, substitute in the general equation and solve for the missing coefficients.

First point that we will use is (0,-3). 
y = y = ax² + bx + c
-3 = a(0)² + b(0) + c
c = -3

The equation now becomes:
y = ax² + bx - 3

The second point that we will use is (2,0):
y = ax² + bx - 3
0 = a(2)² + b(2) - 3
0 = 4a + 2b -3
4a + 2b = 3
This means that:
2b = 3 - 4a
b = 1.5 - 2a ...........> I

The third point that we will use is (-3,0):
y = ax² + bx - 3
0 = a(-3)² + b(-3) - 3
0 = 9a - 3b - 3
9a - 3b = 3 ...........> II

Substitute with I in II and solve for a as follows:
9a - 3b = 3
9a - 3(1.5 - 2a) = 3
9a - 4.5 + 6a = 3
15a = 7.5
a = 7.5 / 15
a = 0.5

Substitute with the value of a in equation I to get b as follows:
b = 1.5 - 2a 
b = 1.5 - 2(0.5)
b = 0.5

Substitute with a and b in the equation as follows:
y = 0.5x² + 0.5x - 3

Hope this helps :)
