We see that the points of the graph of the function never attain a y-value of 0. Thus f is never equal to 0 for real numbers, hence we can disqualify all the necessary answers already (only answer not against this is 2). Nevertheless, we can show that this is the right answer. The graph is called a parabola, so it is represents a second order polynomial. These polynomials have either 2 real or 2 complex solutions. Since this does not have real solutions (at the lowest point of that polynomial the y-value is 4) the correct answer is b).
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. <span>Two lines are perpendicular, and neither line is horizontal so it must be that the slopes of the lines are opposite reciprocals, one slope is positive and the other has a negative slope. Having different slopes so they should intersect the y-axis at different values.</span>
Answer:
Amount of flour in the bag when Mary began = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of baked loaves of bread made from flour = 4
Number of muffins made from flour = 48
To find: Amount of flour in the bag when Mary began
Solution:
Let x denotes amount of flour used to make one baked loave of bread and y denotes amount of flour used to make one muffin.
So,
Amount of flour used to make 4 baked loaves of bread = 4 x
Amount of flour used to make 48 muffins = 48 y
Amount of flour in the bag when Mary began = 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
by the looks of it its saying what the difference was each time
Answer: 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let distance1 = x km
Distance2 = 144 - x
Speed S1 = 63 kph
Speed S2 = 81 kph
Time = Distance / Speed
When the jets pass each other
(144-x) / 81 = x/63
63(144-x) = 81x
9072 - 63x = 81x
x = 9072 / 144
x = 63 km
Time = 63/63 = 1 hour
