Example A, Step 1: Write a comparing the percent to the ratio of part to whole. ex- ?/25 = 28/100 *Notice that 25 is a factor of 100* Step 2: Find the multiplication factor. ex- ?*4 = 28 and 25*4 = 100 *Since 25*4 = 100, find what number times 4 equals 28* Step 3: Find the numerator. ex- 7/25 = 28/100 *Since 4*7 = 28, 28% of 25 = 7 Example B, Step 1: Write the percent as a fraction. ex-35% of 60 = 35/100 of 60 Step 2: Multiply. ex- 35/100 of 60 = 35/100x60=2100/100=21 *Simplify* Example C, Step 1: Write the percent as a decimal. ex- 5% = 5/100 = 0.05 Step 2: Multiply. ex- 180 * 0.05 = 9, 5% of 180 is 9.

Suppose the equation ax^2+bx+c=0 has no real solution and a graph of the related function has a vertex that lies in the second q
Veseljchak [2.6K]
If it has no real solutions, that means the graph does not intersect the x axis

since we have ax^2+bx+c=0, the parabola opens either up or down
since the vertex is in the second quadrant (x is negative and y is positive in this reigon) and the graph does not cross the x axis, the parabola must open up
if the value of 'a' is positive, then the parabola opens up

so 'a' must be positive



if it is translated to the 4th quadrant, then the vertex is now below the x axis
it will now have 2 x intercepts because the vertex is in the 4th quadrant and look at a graph of a parabola opening up with vertex in 4th quadrant and seehow many time it crosses the x axis

Find the midpoint and distance between each pair of points, with easy explanation and work !! will give brainliest.
rewona [7]
If we have 2 coordinates say: (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

Then the formula for the midpoint is:

((x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2)

And the formula for the distance is:

Sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)

So here we have (-1,-4) and (-7,4)

The midpoint is:

((-1+-7)/2,(-4+4)/2) = (-8/2,0/2) = (-4,0)

The distance is:

Sqrt((-7- -1)^2+(4- -4)^2)
= sqrt((-6^2)+(8^2))
=sqrt(36+64)
=sqrt(100)
=10

Y-5=-1/2(x+7) (find the slope)
sashaice [31]

It's the slope-point formula:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We have:

y-5=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x+7)

Therefore, the slope m=-\dfrac{1}{2}
