Look at the coefficient of x², ignore the positive or negative sign. The larger the coefficient, the narrower the graph. 
in this case, the coefficients are -2, -1/2, -4, and 1/7
ignore the positive or negative sign, 4 is the largest number, so y=-4x² is the narrowest.

Note: the positive/negative sign tells you whether the graph opens upward or downward. It doesn't determine the width of the graph.

Anna35 [415]

The linear equation B. y = -x +7.5 best describes the given model. The mood rating for a student that spent 5.5 hours online would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; We plot the points that fall on the line and that lie on an exact x or y coordinate. The following 4 points are plotted (0.5, 7), (2, 5.5), (2.5, 5) and (3.5, 4). We substitute the values of x in the given equations to see which best describes the model.

Step 2; When y = x + 7.5, we get the coordinates as (0.5, 8), (2, 9.5), (2.5, 10) and (3.5, 11).

When y = -x + 7.5, the coordinates are (0.5, 7), (2, 5.5), (2.5, 5) and (3.5, 4).

When y = \frac{-1x}{2} + 7.5, the coordinates are (0.5, 7.25), (2, 6.5), (2.5, 6.25) and        (3.5, 5.75).

So equation 2 has the closest values to the actaul graph.

Step 3; By substituting x = 5.5, y = -(5.5) + 7.5 = 7.5 - 5.5 = 2.

You deposit $400 each month into an account earning 5% interest compounded monthly. a. How much will you have in the account in
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

amount in 30 years is $1787.0977

interest is $1387.0977

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

principal amount = $400

rate = 5 % = 0.05

time period = 30 years

to find out

amount in 30 years and total interest

Solution

we know its interest compounded monthly so n = 12

and interest compounded monthly formula is

amount = principal (1+r/n)^{nt}   ............1

put the value principal , n , rate and time in equation 1

we get amount

amount = 400 (1+0.05/12)^{360}

amount = 1787.0977

amount in 30 years is $1787.0977

and interest = amount - principal  ............2

put the value amount and principal in equation 2

we get  interest = $1787.0977 - $400

interest =$1387.0977

It takes 282828 minutes for 777 people to paint 777 walls. How many minutes does it take 141414 people to paint 141414 walls?
LuckyWell [14K]

Complete Question

It takes 28minutes for 7 people to paint 7 walls. How many minutes does it take 14 people to paint 14 walls?

Answer:

28 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes 28minutes for 7 people to paint 7 walls.

Hence, the today number of minutes for 1 person to paint the wall =>

7 people = 28 minutes

1 person = 28 minutes × 7 people =

198 people minutes = 7 walls

1 wall = 198 /7

1 wall = 28 people minutes

How many minutes does it take 14 people to paint 14 walls?

From the above calculation,

1 wall = 28 people minutes

14 walls =

= 14 walls × 28 people minutes/14 People

= 28 minutes

Therefore, it would take 28 minutes for 14 people to paint 14 walls.
