B. AC/EA = AB/DA because theyre equal slopes just different sizes
Answer:
1 1/4 yards of fabric
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/2+ 1 3/4=4 1/4
4 1/4 - 3 = 1 1/4
(x-5)(x+2)=0
roots: x=5 and x= -2
see attached photo for steps
1. Annual percent increase in rent is basically just a percentage of the rent increased each year.
2. Heater: Use fire places, or lower the amount of air conditioning usage so it's not so cold.
Electricity: Turn off ceiling fans and lights when not used, or only allow the essential things to use electricity.
Water: Not leave faucets or showers running, or no bathtubs which prevents baths.
3. The couple could save $450 in one year because 3000 divided by 0.15 which is the 15%, equals to the total amount saved at $450.
4. Groceries/everyday essentials, Gas money, taxes, pay off loans.
Answer:
Option (1)
Step-by-step explanation:
x -2 -1 0 1 2
y 10 2.5 0 2.5 3.0
Ist difference,




= -2.5


= 2.5


= 7.5
2nd difference,


= 5


= 5


= 5
Since 2nd difference is common, given table represents a quadratic equation.
Let the equation is,
y = ax²+ bx + c
For a point (0, 0) passing through the quadratic equation,
0 = c
Therefore, quadratic equation is y = ax² + bx
Since ordered pair (-1, 2.5) passes through the graph of the function,
2.5 = a(-1)² + b(-1)
a - b = 2.5 ------(1)
For another point (1, 2.5)
2.5 = a(1)² + b(1)
a + b = 2.5 ------(2)
By adding equations (1) and (2),
2a = 5
a = 2.5
and from equation (2)→ y = 0
Therefore, equation of the quadratic function given in the table is y = 2.5x²
Option (1) is the answer.
