1000/7 = <span>142.857142857

Because this is not an even number we take "142", then times it by 7 teachers.

142*7= 994

1000 - 994 = 6 Pencils left</span>

What is the area of the figure?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br><br> in²
miss Akunina [59]

Hello!

To find the area of a square use the formula A=lw (Area is equal to length times width) in other words multiply the side times side of just the square. Then to find the area of a triangle use the formula A= 1/2 hb ( Area is equal to half of the height times base) therefore you multiply the height times the base and then multiply it by 1/2 or 0.5 in decimal form ( or just divide by 2, either way works the same). Then add the area of the square and triangle together. (To find the height of the triangle you need to subtract 10 from 16, in other words 16-10. To find the base of the triangle you need to do 10-6.)

Hope this helps!

HELP PLS MANY POINTS Use the function f(x) to answer the questions: f(x) = 4x2 + 8x − 5 Part A: What are the x-intercepts of the
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x^2 + 8x − 5

To find the x intercepts set y = 0

0 =4x^2 + 8x − 5

Factor

0=(2x-1)(2x+5)

Using the zero product property

2x-1 =0     2x+5 =0

2x=1            2x = -5

x = 1/2           x = -5/2

The x intercepts are ( 1/2 ,0)   and ( -5/2,0)

Rewriting in vertex form by completing the square

4 ( x^2 + 2x) -5

4 ( x^2+2x +1) -4*1 -5

4 ( x+1) ^2 -9

Vertex form is

a( x-h) ^2 +k  where ( h,k) is the vertex

The vertex is ( -1,-9)

We know it opens upwards since a > 0

Plot the vertex and the x intercepts

The graph is symmetric on  based on the vertex
