Answer:
(d) f(x) = -x²
Step-by-step explanation:
For the vertex of the quadratic function to be at the origin, both the x-term and the constant must be zero. That is, the function must be of the form ...
f(x) = a(x -h)² +k . . . . . . . . . . vertex form; vertex at (h, k)
f(x) = a(x -0)² +0 = ax² . . . . . vertex at the origin, (h, k) = (0, 0)
Of the offered answer choices, the only one with a vertex at the origin is ...
f(x) = -x² . . . . . a=-1

Answer:
-5n + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1. What is the difference?</u>
The sequence goes down by 5. This means that the formula will have -5n in it.
<u>2. Work out the term before the first term.</u>
The first term is 3, and we know that the sequence goes up by 5. So, to get the term before 3 we would add 5.
3 + 5 = 8 Remember, this is positive 8. (+8)
<u>3. Put that term at the end of the equation. </u>
We have -5n already and we just worked out the term before the first one which is positive 8 - so put that at the end of the equation.
-5n + 8 This is our answer!
Just to prove it works:
<em>Substitute: n = term</em>
Lets see if we can get the 3rd term which is -7. (n = 3)
-5(3) + 8
-15 + 8 = -7
See, it works!

Solve Step by Step:
1) Write the Equation: 31/2 = how many pine cones Jenna and Ellen found.
2) Solve 31/2= 15.5
So each girl found 15 and a half pine cones. Or one girl found 15 and the other found 16. If you want to have each girl find an even amount.
