So, we are given the y intercept, and since we know c is the same as the y value of the y intercept, we know that c=15.

From there we can pick any two of the points given to us to find our a and b.

Let's use (4,17) and (8,23) becase they are whole numbers.

17=16a+4b+15\\ 23=64a+8b+15 \implies \\ 2=16a+4b\\ 8=64a+8b \implies\\ 8=64+16b \\ 8=64+8b \implies \\ 0=8b \implies\\ b=0

So, with b=0, we can plug it back into the first equation to get:17=16a+4b+15 \implies\\ 2=16a \implies\\ a=\frac{1}{8}

So our quadratic is \frac{1}{8}x^2+15

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Allen go to bed at <u>9:15 p.m</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Allen started his homework at 8:10 p.M. And worked for 45 minutes. Then he phoned a friend and talked for 20 minutes. He went to bed when he finished the call.

Now, to find the time Allen go to bed.

Allen started his homework at 8:10 p.m.

And worked for 45 minutes.

So, to get the time when he finished homework is by adding 45 minutes and the time when he started homework:

8.10+45

=8.55\ p.m.

Thus, he finished his homework at 8:55 p.m.

Then he phoned a friend and talked for 20 minutes and went to bed when he finished the call.

<em>As, 1 hour = 60 minutes.</em>

Now, to get the time when he go to bed by adding 20 minutes and the time when he finished homework:

8.55+20=9.15\ p.m.

Therefore, Allen go to bed at 9:15 p.m.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

1) A.

2) C.

Step-by-step explanation:

15 pints = 15 × 1/2 quarts

15 pints = 15/2 quarts

15 pints = 7 1/2 quarts

2) 1 quarts = 0.95 liters

4 quarts = 0.95 × 4 liters

4 quarts = 3.8 liters

Find the area of this figure to the nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 to approximate pi.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

49.12 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = \dfrac{1}{2}*base *height

                          =\dfrac{1}{2}*6*8=3*8 = 24 \ sq.units

Circle:

d = 8 units

r = 8/2 = 4 units

Area \ of \  semicircle = \dfrac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}\\

                                =\dfrac{1}{2}*3.14*4*4=3.14*2*4= 25.12 \ sq.units

Area of the figure = area of triangle +area of semicircle

   = 24 + 25.12

    = 49.12 sq. units

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 1/4x - 12?
madam [21]
Hello,

y=1/4 x-12
x=1/4 y -12 (exchange x and y)
1/4y=x+12
y=4(x+12) solve for y
y=4x+48
