Y = a(x  + 1.5)^2 - 12.5
y intercept is (0,-8) so:-
-8 = a(0+1.5)^2 - 12.5
-8 = 2.25a - 12.5
a =  4.5/ 2.25 = 2

so we have 

y  = 2 ( x +1.5)^2 - 12.5

solving for x  when y = 0:-
(x + 1.5)^2 = 12.5/2 = 6.25

taking sqrt's  x + 1.5  = +/- 2.5

x =  -4,   1

so the x intercepts are (-4,0) and (1,0)

Triangle XYZ is reflected across the y-axis, and X = (4,-5). What are the coordinates of X’ ?
adelina 88 [10]
The correct answer is B.

You can come to this decision by picturing the initial point in your mind. Point X has a positive x-value and a negative y-value. This puts it in quadrant 2 on the coordinate plane. Now, if you flip that point over the y-axis, that makes its new location in quadrant three. In quadrant three, both the x and y coordinates are negative. So, the value wouldn’t change but both would become negatives.

I hope this helps. :)

What is the value of x in the equation 3-2x--15x?<br><br> 6<br> 2<br> 2<br> 6
Wittaler [7]

Consider the given equation is 3-2x=15 and one of the 6 in the options is -6.

Given:

The equation is

3-2x=15

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

3-2x=15

Subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

3-2x-3=15-3

-2x=12

Divide both sides by -2.

x=\dfrac{12}{-2}

x=-6

Therefore, the value of x is -6.

denny can deliver 6 papers every 15 minutes and brendan can deliver 5 papers in that same amount of time. how many papers can th
Evgesh-ka [11]

So for this problem you know that 15 is 1/4 of an hour so to get the amount of papers each individual could deliver by themselves in an hour you would multiply the amount they can deliver in 15 minutes by 4. Denny delivers 6 so multiplying that by 4 is 24. Next Brendan delivers 5 in 15 minutes so multiplying that by 4 you get 20. The final step is to add 20 and 24 to get the total amount of papers between the two of them that gets delivered in an hour. This will result in your answer of 44.
