6 0

Answer:

Table shown below

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem let's use proportions.

If 2 pounds of grapes cost $6, half the amount will cost half the dollars, so the last row will have $3 in the price

For the second row, we know the price is $1, that is, one-sixth of the original given price. It should correspond to one-sixth of the amount of grapes or 2/6 pounds.

Simplifying the fraction, we get 1/3 or 0.33 pounds

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution 2x-y=6 x=y-1

Oksana_A [137]

substitute x for y-1
2(y-1)-y=6 distribute
2y-2-y=6 subtract y in 2y
y-2=6 add 2 to get y by itself
y=8

Put y back into equation x=y-1
x=8-1
X=7

Consider the parabola given by the equation: f(x) = 2x2 + 14.0 – 4

Softa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x² + 14x - 4

= 2(x² + 7x) - 4

= 2(x² +7x + 3.5²) - 2(3.5²) - 4

= 2(x+3.5)² - 28.5

vertex (3.5, -28.5) = (7/2, -57/2)

The vertical intercept is the y-intercept, i.e., f(0) = -4.

The x-intercepts are the values of x for which y=0.

2x² + 14x - 4 = 0

x = [-14±√(14²-4(2)(-4))]/[2(2)] = [-7±√57]/2 ≅ -7.27, 0.27

Vesna [10]

Answer:

For a flag with 2 different colours, there are 8 possible colours for the first colour to be chosen from and 7 possible colours (excluding the first colour already chosen) for the second colour to be chosen from, given that colours are different. Hence there are a total of 8 x 7 = 56 possible flags to be created.
