Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros are x = - 1 and x = 3 then the factors are

(x + 1) and (x - 3) and the parabola is the product of the factors, that is

y = a(x + 1)(x - 3) ← where a is a multiplier

To find a substitute (0, - 9) into the equation

- 9 = a(0 + 1)(0 - 3) = a(1)(- 3) = - 3a ( divide both sides by - 3 )

3 = a, thus

y = 3(x + 1)(x - 3) ← expand the factors using FOIL

  = 3(x² - 2x - 3) ← distribute by 3

  = 3x² - 6x - 9 → A

Laurie was scuba diving. Each time she dove 5 feet deeper, she would stop and clear her ears. After Laurie had checked her instr
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Laurie's maximum depth can be represented using the expressions :

(20 × 3) = 60

(3 × 4 × 5) = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Each depth level at which ears are checked = 5 feets

Each Depth level at which instruments are checked = 20 feets

For Laurie to check her instrument ;

Number of times ears are checked = 20/5 = 4 times

This means that for Laurie to have checked her instrument 3 times :

(4 × 3 × 5) = 60 feets

Therefore, Laurie's maximum depth can be expressed as (4 × 3 × 5) = 60 feets

Evaluate the following<br><br> (1.6 x 10 12) ÷ (8.01 x 10 23)
devlian [24]
To evaluate the given expression, we must follow the rules of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction) in solving.

Therefore, first calculate what's inside the parentheses:

(1619.2) / (8194.23)

 Then perform the operation in between the parentheses:

<span>(1619.2) / (8194.23) = 0.20
</span>
Therefore the answer after evaluating the expression is 0.20.
