<span>1. The r</span>atio of milk cartons taken to total milk cartons,
100 - 27 = 73 were taken
73/100 is the ratio of milk cartons taken to total milk cartons

2. The ratio of milk cartons remaining to milk cartons taken
27 / 73 is the ratio of milk cartons remaining to milk cartons taken

Suppose that equation of parabola is
y =ax² + bx + c


Since parabola passes through the point (2,−15) then 
−15 = 4a + 2b + c

Since parabola passes through the point (-5,-29), then
−29 = 25a − 5b + c

Since parabola passes through the point (−3,−5), then 
−5 = 9a − 3b + c


Thus, we obtained following system:
4a + 2b + c = −15
25a − 5b + c = −29
9a − 3b + c = −5

Solving it we get that 
a = −2, b = −4, c = 1

Thus, equation of parabola is
y = −2x²− 4x + 1

____________________

Rewriting in the form of 
(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)

i) -2x² - 4x + 1 = y

ii) -3x² - 7x = y - 11
(-3x² and -7x are isolated)

iii) -3x² - 7x - 49/36 = y - 1 - 49/36
(Adding -49/36 to both sides to get perfect square on LHS)

iv) -3(x² + 7/3x + 49/36) = y - 3
(Taking out -3 common from LHS)

v) -3(x + 7/6)² = y - 445/36 

vi) (x + 7/6)² = -⅓(y - 445/36) 
(Shifting -⅓ to RHS)

vii) (x + 1)² = 4(-1/12)(y - 445/36)
(Rewriting in the form of 4(-1/12) ; This is 4p) 


So, after rewriting the equation would be - 

(x + 7/6)² = 4(-⅛)(y - 445/36)

Find the slope of the tangent to y= -7Sin(x)+2cos(x) at x= 3π/4
BaLLatris [955]
Y = -7sin(x) + 2cos(x)
y = -7sin(3π/4) + 2cos(3π/4)
y = -7sin(9.42/4) + 2cos(9.42/4)
y = -7sin(2.355) + 2cos(2.355)
y = -7(0.03698381721) + 2(0.9993158646)
y = -0.2588867205 + 1.998631729
y = 1.739745009

Suppose a box contains 3 defective light bulbs and 12 good bulbs. two bulbs are chosen from the box without replacement. find th
Mademuasel [1]
The probability that the bulb is good is 12/15.
Since we have taken 1 item out the remaining total is now 14, so the probability of getting a defective bulb is now 3/14.
Now you multiply the probabilities together to get (12/15)(3/14)=(4/5)(3/14)=12/70=6/35

Find the most important variable in the problem.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = the number of phone available

If it would require 8 more phones, then the total number of phones will be x + 8.

A company hired an additional 12 employees, and every employee needed a phone, then

x + 8 = 12

x = 4

This means 4 phones were available (and 8 more needed to total in 12 phones for 12 new employees)

Hence, correct option is option A.
