Claire has $300 Is an account. She decides she is going to take out $25 each month.
Elena-2011 [213]
Recursive equation would be f(x+1) = f(x) - 25 with f(0) = 300

Explicit equation would be f(x) = -25x + 300

And graph would looks like this:

Jesse has 5 and 3/4 dozen eggs. How many eggs does Jesse have?
emmainna [20.7K]
¾ = 75%
so turn 75% into a decimal by dividing by 100 and get .75
then multiply:
.75x12=9
so ¾ of a dozen is 9 eggs
now multiply:
5x12=60 eggs
so now just add 60+9=69
So Jesse has 69 eggs

Hope this helps!! :D

Which of the following are the coordinates of the vertex of y = −x2 + 2x + 1? (2, 1) (1, –2) (1, 2) (–2, 1)
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the vertex of the quadratic equation:

\displaystyle y = -x^2 + 2x + 1

Recall that the vertex is given by the formulas:

\displaystyle \text{Vertex} = \left(-\frac{b}{2a}, f\left(-\frac{b}{2a}\right)\right)

In this case, <em>a</em> = -1, <em>b</em> = 2, and <em>c</em> = 1.

Determine the <em>x-</em>coordinate of the vertex:

\displaystyle x = -\frac{(2)}{2(-1)} = 1

To determine the <em>y-</em>coordinate, evaluate the function at <em>x</em> = 1:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} y(1)&= -(1)^2 + 2(1) + 1 \\ &= 2\end{aligned}

In conclusion, the vertex of the quadratic equation is (1, 2).

Hence, our answer is C.

Một ủy ban an toàn kiểm tra ngẫu nhiên 900 công nhân xây dựng trong thời gian làm việc, thấy có 48 công nhân không mang mũ bảo h
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The percentage of workers not wearing the helmets is 5.3 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

A safety committee randomly examined 900 construction workers during their work, and found that 48 workers were not wearing helmets. Estimate the percentage of workers who do not wear protective masks during their working time with 98% confidence

total workers = 900

Not wearing helmet = 48

Percentage which are not wearing the helmets

= \frac{48}{900}\times 100 = 5.3 %%
