Answer: The last one.

Step-by-step explanation: Using the vertical line test, if you place a vertical line at any point of a function it should only cross the line of the function once. since it would cross it twice on the last one, it is not a function.

Type the correct answer in the box. Rewrite the quadratic equation in the form y = a(x − h)2 + k. y=5x^2-30x+95

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

y = 5(x - 3)^2 + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem wants you to rewrite the quadratic equation in the vertex form y = a(x - h)^2 + k

You are given a quadratic equation in standard form (ax^2 + bx = c).

To convert from standard form to vertex form, there are two ways but I will show you the easier(?) way.

Use the formula x = -b/2a to find the x-value (h) of the vertex. Note that the vertex in "vertex form" is (h, k) which is virtually the same as (x, y).

In y = 5x^2 - 30x + 95, a = 5, b = -30, and c = 95. Substitute a and b into the formula -b/2a.

-(-30) / 2(5)

Two negative make a positive, so -(-30) becomes 30 and 2 times 5 is 10. Now we have:

30/10 which simplifies down to 3.

The x (h) value of the vertex is 3. To find the y-value, substitute 3 into the original standard form equation.

y = 5(3)^2 - 30(3) + 95
= 5(9) - (90) + 95
45 - 90 + 95
50

The y (k) value of the vertex is 50. Now we have: (h, k) ⇒ (3, 50).

Substitute the values for h and k into the vertex form.

y = a(x - 3)^2 + 50

We still need the a-value, and this is easy to find. You take the a value from the original standard for equation (remember: ax^2 + bx + c)

So our a-value is 5. Now we can substitute this value into the vertex form and complete the question.

y = 5(x - 3)^2 + 50

Solution of the equation 3x/5+1=4x/15+7

Anika [276]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{3x}{5}$ + 1 = $\frac{4x}{15}$ + 7 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

$\frac{3x}{5}$ = $\frac{4x}{15}$ + 6

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions

9x = 4x + 90 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 90 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 18

Find the constant of variation for the relation and use it to write an equation for the statement. Then solve the equation.

hammer [34]

Answer: option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

If y varies directly as x and z, the form of the equation is:

$y=kxz$

Where k is the constant of variation.

If y=4 when x=6 and z=1 then substitute these values into the expression and solve for k:

$4=k(6)(1)\\4=6k\\k=\frac{4}{6}\\\\k=\frac{2}{3}$

Substitute the value of k into the expression. Then, the equation is:

$y=\frac{2}{3}xz$

To find the value of y when x=7 and z=4, you must substute these values into the equation. Therefore you obtain:

$y=k=\frac{2}{3}(7)(4)$

$y(7,4)=\frac{56}{3}$

Type the correct answer in each box. A circle is centered at the point (5, -4) and passes through the point (-3, 2). The equatio

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

$(x+ \boxed{-5})^2+(y+\boxed4)^2=\boxed{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Center of circle is at (5, -4).

A point on the circle is $(x_1,y_1)=(-3, 2)$

Equation of a circle with center $(h,k)$ and radius 'r' is given as:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Here, $(h,k)=(5,-4)$

Radius of a circle is equal to the distance of point on the circle from the center of the circle and is given using the distance formula for square of the distance as:

$r^2=(h-x_1)^2+(k-y_1)^2$

Using distance formula for the points (5, -4) and (-3, 2), we get

$r^2=(5-(-3))^2+(-4-2)^2\\r^2=(5+3)^2+(-6)^2\\r^2=8^2+6^2\\r^2=64+36=100$

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:

$(x-5)^2+(y-(-4))^2=100\\(x-5)^2+(y+4)^2=100$

Now, rewriting it in the form asked in the question, we get

$(x+ \boxed{-5})^2+(y+\boxed4)^2=\boxed{100}$

A tortoise and a hare are competing in a race around a 1600-meter track. The arrogant hare decides to let the tortoise have a 78

Sindrei [870]

I am presuming that the question is who won or by how much did the winner win.

distance equals rate times time, or d = r*t
For the Hare d = 1600 and r = 10
1600 = 10 t
Divide both sides by 10
t = 160
The hare finished in 160 seconds

For the tortoise d = 1600 - 780 = 820 (due to the head start) and r = 5.3
820= 5.3 t
Divide both sides by 5.3
t = 154.72 (rounded to the hundredths place)

The tortoise won by 5. 28 seconds (160-154.72)
