Answer:

Time taken by his friend to create the app alone = 48 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hours needed by Jacob to create an app = 24 hours

\text{One hour work of Jacob = }\frac{1}{24}

Let hours needed by his friend in creating the app alone = x hours

\text{So, one hour work of his friend = }\frac{1}{x}

The both can create the app in 16 hours.

\implies \frac{1}{24}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{16}\\\\\implies\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{16}-\frac{1}{24}\\\\\implies\frac{1}{x}=\frac{24-16}{24\times 16}\\\\\implies \frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{48}\\\\\bf\implies x = 48

Hence, Time taken by his friend to create the app alone = 48 hours.

IF Triangle DEF JKL, find KL.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{KL}{EF} = \frac{JK}{DE} , substitute values

\frac{6x+3}{x+11} = \frac{25}{10} ( cross- multiply )

10(6x + 3) = 25(x + 11) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

60x + 30 = 25x + 275 ( subtract 25x from both sides )

35x + 30 = 275 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

35x = 245 ( divide both sides by 35 )

x = 7

Then

KL = 6x + 3 = 6(7) + 3 = 42 + 3 = 45 → b

If the parabola has y = -4 at both x = 2 and x = 3, then since a parabola is symmetric, its axis of symmetry must be between x = 2 and x = 3, or at x = 5/2. Our general equation can then be:
y = a(x - 5/2)^2 + k
Substitute (1, -2): -2 = a(-3/2)^2 + k
-2 = 9a/4 + k
Substitute (2, -4): -4 = a(-1/2)^2 + k
-4 = a/4 + k
Subtracting: 2 = 2a, so a = 1. Substituting back gives k = -17/4.
So the equation is y = (x - 5/2)^2 - 17/4
Expanding: y = x^2 - 5x + 25/4 - 17/4
y = x^2 - 5x + 2 (This is the standard form.)
