75 divided by 15 is 5. 5 eggs per hen
You need to clarify whether you need the x or the y or both
D is the correct answer to your question
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of "a" is the coefficient of x^2, so we know that is 2.
__
<u>Solve for h</u>
Now, we have ...
2x^2 -8x +7 = 2(x -h)^2 +k
Expanding the right side gives us ...
= 2(x^2 -2hx +h^2) +k
= 2x^2 -4hx +2h^2 +k
Comparing x-terms, we see ...
-4hx = -8x
h = (-8x)/(-4x) = 2
__
<u>Solve for k</u>
Now, we're left with ...
2h^2 +k = 7 = 2(2^2) +k = 8 +k
Subtracting 8 we find k to be ...
k = 7 -8 = -1
__
And the sum of constants a, h, and k is ...
a +h +k = 2 +2 -1 = 3
The sum of the constants is 3.
