nata0808 [166]3 years ago
4 0

Try this solution with a short explanation:

a) y=ax²+5; ⇒ substitution (4;0): 16a+5=0; ⇒ a= -5/16.

Answer: <u>y= -5/16 x²+5</u>;

b)<u> y=x²</u>;

c) y=ax(x+7); ⇒ substitution (4;4): 4a(4+7)=4; ⇒a=1/11.

Answer: <u>y= 1/11 x²+ 7/11 x</u>;

d) y=a(x-1)(x-3); ⇒substitution (0;3): (-1)*(-3)*a=3; ⇒a=1.

Answer: <u>y=x²-4x+3</u>;

e) y=a(x-1)(x+3); ⇒ substitution (-1;5): (-2)*2*a=5; ⇒ a= -5/4.

Answer: <u>y= -5/4 x² -5/2 x +15/4</u>;

f) y=ax²+bx+c; ⇒ substitution (2;2): 4a+2b+6=2 or 2a+b= -2 (the I-st equation of the system);

the x-coordinate of the vertex: -b/2a=2; ⇒ b= -4a (the II-d equation of the system);

\left \{ {{2a+b=-2} \atop {b=-4a}} \right. \ => \ \left \{ {{a=1} \atop {b=-4}} \right.

Answer: <u>y=x²-4x+6.</u>

Wood is sometimes sold in planks that are 2 inches high, 4 inches wide, and 6 feet long.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Answer = 72!

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so imagine that piece of wood in your mind

As the second part of the question states, the LENGTH is the only dimension that changes. It goes from 6 Foot pieces, to 6 INCH pieces.The height and the width stay the same, at 2 inches and 4 inches, respectively

So, we know that there are 12 inches in a foot. If the original piece was 6 Feet long, then if you multiply 6 (the number of feet) x 12 (the number of inches per foot) then you come up with 72!

Thus, that plank of would could be cut into 72 pieces that were 2 inches high, 4 inches wide, and 6 inches long.
