Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Get the equation in the form y = ax2 + bx + c.

Calculate -b / 2a. This is the x-coordinate of the vertex.

To find the y-coordinate of the vertex, simply plug the value of -b / 2a into the equation for x and solve for y.

- that's how you find the vertex of the quadratic function-

Viola is helping to plant a rectangular community garden a plant handbook states that 1 plant requires 8 square inches of soil g

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

252 plants

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, calculate the area of the garden bed.

24 x 84 = 2016 inches squared

now, divide your answer by 8 (the amount of space needed for each plant)

2016 ÷ 8 = 252

I HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL :-)

1.) Vivian combined different amounts of white paint, blue paint, and green paint to make 145 milliliters (ml) of paint of a new

Ivahew [28]

So here are the answers to the given questions above:
1. Since the equation is already given, what we are going to do is to solve for x first.
x + (2x – 10) + 1/2 (2x – 10) = 145
x + (2x -10) + x - 5 = 145
x + 2x + x - 10 - 5 = 145
4x = 145 +10 + 5
4x = 160 <<divide both sides by 4 and we get
x = 40.
Therefore, the amount of white paint is 40ml.
The amount of blue paint is 70ml and the green paint is 35ml.
So the difference between the amounts of white paint and blue paint Vivian combined is 30ml.
2. The equation of the line that passes through the points (-2, 1) and (1, 10) would be: 3x - y = -7, the last option. In order to check, just plug in the given ordered pairs.

Does second-hand smoke increase the risk of a low birthweight? A baby is considered have low birthweight if he/she weighs less t

marishachu [46]

Answer:

Option 2) Null hypothesis: p = 0.078 , Alternate hypothesis: p > 0.078

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

According to the National Center of Health Statistics, about 7.8% of all babies born in the U.S. are categorized as low birth weight.

Sample size, n = 1200

p = 7.8% = 0.078

We have to carry a hypothesis test whether national percentage is higher than 7.8% or not.

Thus, we can design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: p = 0.078\H_A: p > 0.078$

Thus, the correct answer is:

Option 2) Null hypothesis: p = 0.078 , Alternate hypothesis: p > 0.078

HELP ME PLEASEEEEEEEEE

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

a)This solution matches with the original equation and its solution

b)This solution matches with the original equation and its solution

c)This solution does not match with the original equation and its solution. Though the solution is correct the original given equation cannot be used.

d)This solution does not match with the original equation and its solution. Though the solution is correct the original given equation cannot be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Which scenarios can be solved by 1.5x + 2.25 = 12.75. Select all that apply and note the given solution.

therefore 1.5x = 10.5 therefore x = 7

a) let the number be x

therefore if $\frac{3}{2} x + \frac{9}{4} = \frac{51}{4} \Rightarrow 1.5x + 2.25 = 12.75$ then the number x = 7.

This solution matches with the original equation and its solution

b.) If a taxi driver charges a flat fee of $2.25 and $1.5 per mile, where the

number of mile = x, then the number of miles Juan can ride the taxi for

$12.75 is x = 7.

This solution matches with the original equation and its solution

c)if nine quarters of a number, say x, increased by three halves is fifty one

quarters, the number is x = 5,

$\frac{9}{4} x + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{51}{4} \Rightarrow 9x = 51 - 6 = 45 \therefore x = 5$

This solution does not match with the original equation and its solution. Though the solution is correct the original given equation cannot be used.

d.) If a taxi driver charges a flat fee of $1.5 and $2.25 per mile, where the

number of mile = x, then the number of miles Juan can ride the taxi for

$12.75 is x = 5.

$2.25x + 1.5 = 12.75 \Rightarrow 9x = 51 - 6 = 45 \therefore x = 5$

This solution does not match with the original equation and its solution. Though the solution is correct the original given equation cannot be used.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

US has a comparative advantage in producing rice.

This means US's opportunity cost of producing rice is less than that of Korea.

Korea's opportunity cost of producing rice will be given as:

For producing 9 units of Rice, Korea gives up 5 cars.

For producing 1 unit of rice's, Korea will give up 5/9 units of car.
