First factor the numerator
b^2-6b+8/b-4 * b+8/b-2
u will get
(b-2)(b-4)/(b-4)*(b-2)*b+8
those will cancel out each other will left only
b+8<span />

Answer:</h3>
f(x) = -(x -2)² +3
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
We can fill in the vertex (h, k) values immediately in the vertex form ...
... f(x) = a(x -h)² +k
To find the value of a, we solve the equation for a at some point other than the vertex. The given point is (0, -1), so we can use that:
... -1 = a(0 -2)² +3
... -4 = 4a . . . . . . . . . subtract 3, simplify
... -1 = a . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
Now, we know the function is ...
... f(x) = -(x -2)² +3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the decimal to the left once on both of them and time the numbers together
Sum = 20(1-(1/4)^5) / (1-1/4) = 26.64
The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
C.4.1 in
Explanation:
We will use a proportion for this problem.
In the first ratio, we have 6 inches: 80 pounds. This can also be written as 6/80.
For the second ratio, we do not know the length; this is x. The weight is 55; this gives us x/55.
This makes our proportion
6/80 = x/55
Cross multiplying, we have
6(55) = 80(x)
330 = 80x
Divide both sides by 80:
330/80 = 80x/80
4.125 = x
This means the answer is 4.1.
