Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, if he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys, Nathan will get 9 sweets.
<h3>How many sweets does Nathan gets?</h3>
Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys.
Let the sweet be represented by x
For each x sweet for Yasmin, Nathan gets 3x sweets
Hence
x + 3x = 12
We solve for x
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
Hence;
Yasmin gets x sweet = 3
Nathan gets 3x sweets = 3 × 3 = 9
Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, if he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys, Nathan will get 9 sweets.

One form of the equation of a parabola is
y = ax² + bx + c
The curve passes through (0,-6), (-1,-12) and (3,0). Therefore
c = - 6 (1)
a - b + c = -12 (2)
9a + 3b + c = 0 (3)
Substitute (1) into (2) and into (3).
a - b -6 = -12
a - b = -6 (4)
9a + 3b - 6 = 0
9a + 3b = 6 (5)
Substitute a = b - 6 from (4) into (5).
9(b - 6) + 3b = 6
12b - 54 = 6
12b = 60
b = 5
a = b - 6 = -1
The equation is
y = -x² + 5x - 6
Let us use completing the square to write the equation in standard form for a parabola.
y = -[x² - 5x] - 6
= -[ (x - 2.5)² - 2.5²] - 6
= -(x - 2.5)² + 6.25 - 6
y = -(x - 2.5)² + 0.25
This is the standdard form of the equation for the parabola.
The vertex us at (2.5, 0.25).
The axis of symmetry is x = 2.5
Because the leading coefficient is -1 (negative), the curve opens downward.
The graph is shown below.
Answer: y = -(x - 2.5)² + 0.25
to find a slope you subtract the y value of the 2nd point from the y value of the 1st point then you devide that by the difference of the x value of the 2nd point subtracted from the x value of the 1st point. so 5-3 devided by -3-4, 5-3=2, -3-4=-7. so m = 2/-7 is your slope. the slope is usually represented with the letter m.
Answer:
someone had the same exact question i just helped him on it sub 4 for x and 1 for h
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: He could have played more than 3 games.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality.
I golf club charges $10 to join and $5 per game: So, the cost of playing golf is equal to $10 (joining price) plus the product of the number of games played (x) and the price per game (5).
That expression must be higher than 25, since john paid more than $25.
Mathematically speaking
10+ 5 x > 25
Solving for x
5x >25-10
5x >15
x >15/5
x> 3
He could have played more than 3 games, since his cost was higher ( not equal or higher) than 25.
