Answer:
Parent function: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Parent function is the simplest form of the type of function given
for equation: 
the simplest form is: 
John is correct because 0.5 is equal to one half and multiplying something by its half is just same as dividing something in two and half of 1.4 is 0.5

The expression s = 5b represents the Sandra rode her bike and the distance Sandra rode, equals 17 miles.
<h3>What is distance?</h3>
Distance is a numerical representation of the distance between two items or locations. Distance refers to a physical length or an approximation based on other physics or common usage considerations.
We have:
Sandra rode her bike 5 times as many miles as Barbara. If b, the distance Barbara rode, equals 3.4 miles.
b = 3.4 miles
Let's suppose the s is the distance Sandra rode then,
s = 5b
The above expression represents the Sandra rode her bike.
Plug b = 3.4 miles
s = 5(3.4) = 17 miles
Thus, the expression s = 5b represents the Sandra rode her bike and the distance Sandra rode, equals 17 miles.

For a polynomial of the form ax^2+bx+c rewrite the middle term as a sum of two terms whose product is a⋅c=5⋅4=20 and whose sum is b=12.
<u>Factor 12 out of 12x.</u>
5x^2+12(x)+4
<u>Rewrite 12 as 2 plus 10</u>
5x^2+(2+10)x+4
Apply the distributive property.
5x^2+2x+10x+4
Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.
Group the first two terms and the last two terms.
(5x^2+2x)+10x+4
Factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from each group.
x(5x+2)+2(5x+2)
Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, 5x+25x+2.
(5x+2)(x+2)
|PR| = |PQ| + |QR|; |PQ| = |QR| conclusion |PR| = 2|PQ|
|PQ| = 3y; |PR| = 42; |QR|=?
subtitute
42 = 2(3y)
6y = 42 |divide both sides by 6
y = 7
|QR| = 3(7) = 21
