S a punishment for something naughty that we did, my little brother and I have to whitewash both sides of a fence. We start at t

he same time, and we each work at a constant rate.
If we each whitewash one side, I'll finish in 2 hours and my brother will finish in 3 hours. But I'm a nice kid, so after I finish my side, I go around to the other side and help my brother finish his side. From the time I start helping him, how many minutes does it take us to finish the job?

Hint(s):

How many sides per hour can I paint? How about my brother? How about both of us together?

Select all of the statements that are true for the given parabola.
Masja [62]

Answer:

A and B are true

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum is the turning point on the graph and occurs at (1, - 2)

The x- intercepts are where the graph crosses the x- axis , that is at

x = - 1 and x = 3 or in coordinate form (- 1, 0 ) and (3, 0 )

The equation of the axis of symmetry is a vertical line passing through (1, - 2)

with equation x = 1

The true statements are A and B

Can anyone help i will give brainlist!! also you have to solve the equations using elimination
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=29

5x-2y=41

add the equations

10x=70

divide both sides by ten

x=7

substitute 7 in the first equation

5(7)+2y=29

simplify

35+2y=29

subtract 35 from both sides

2y=-6

simplify

y=-3 x=7

3x+2y=9

5x+2y=12

subtract the equations

-2x=-3

simplify

x=1.5

substitute

3(1.5)+2y=9

simplify

4.5+2y=9

subtract 4.5 from both sides

2y=4.5

simplify

y=2.25 x=1.5

5x+2y=-9

2x-3y=4

multiply first equation by three and second by two

15x+6y=-27

4x-6y=8

add equations

19x=-19

simplify

x=-1

substitute

15(-1)+6y=-27

simplify

-15+6y=-27

add 15 to both sides

6y=-12

simplify

y=-2 x=-1
