Answer:

d=3 and e=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

d+e=2

d=2-e-----(1)

d-e=4-----(2)

substituting (1) in (2)

2-e-e=4

-2e=2

e=-1-----(3)

substituting (3) in (1)

d=2-(-1)

d=3

PLEASE HELP I NEED THIS ASAP<br> Find the vertex of y=x^2-7x+4

Goshia [24]

Answer:

$\mathrm{Minimum}\space\left(\frac{7}{2},\:-\frac{33}{4}\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=x^2-7x+4\\\mathrm{The\:vertex\:of\:an\:up-down\:facing\:parabola\:of\:the\:form}\:y=ax^2+bx+c\:\mathrm{is}\:x_v=-\frac{b}{2a}\\\mathrm{The\:parabola\:params\:are:}\\a=1,\:b=-7,\:c=4\\x_v=-\frac{b}{2a}\\x_v=-\frac{\left(-7\right)}{2\cdot \:1}\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\x_v=\frac{7}{2}\\\mathrm{Plug\:in}\:\:x_v=\frac{7}{2}\:\mathrm{to\:find\:the}\:y_v\:\mathrm{value}\\y_v=\left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2-7\cdot \frac{7}{2}+4\\$

$\mathrm{Simplify\:}\left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2-7\cdot \frac{7}{2}+4:\quad -\frac{33}{4}\\y_v=-\frac{33}{4}\\Therefore\:the\:parabola\:vertex\:is\\\left(\frac{7}{2},\:-\frac{33}{4}\right)\\\mathrm{If}\:a0,\:\mathrm{then\:the\:vertex\:is\:a\:minimum\:value}\\a=1\\\mathrm{Minimum}\space\left(\frac{7}{2},\:-\frac{33}{4}\right)$

Liana is studying the activity of nurse sharks. She starts at a position that is 25 feet below sea level. She rises 9 feet, then

Reil [10]

Answer:

I believe the answer is -28

Step-by-step explanation

I gotchu bro

The answer is -28 because Liana starts at 25 below sea level (which is the same thing as -25) If she rises 9 feet, then you know to add because she is going up so your just gonna add. Next she descends 12 feet, so she went down, so subtract. So i know the answer is going to be -28 because -25+9 is -16, then imma subtract -16 and 12 so, -16 - 12= -28. There ye go
