Answer:
c = 196
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain a perfect square trinomial
Add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 28x
x² + 2(14)x + (14)², that is
x² + 28x + 196
= (x + 14)² ← a perfect square
Answer: $20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'x' be the cost of a ticket at Haynes
Let 'y' be the cost of a ticket at Valley
Since the total cost from both schools are the same, we can write it as:

Since the cost of tickets at Valley was $5 less than Haynes, we can write it as:

Now we have two equations, we can use to substitute into the other expression:

we substitute y in this equation with the other equation



Therefore the cost of the ticket at Haynes is $20 and the cost of the ticket at Valley is $15.
Answer:
a. 3/4 inches per minute
b. -1 1/8 inches per minute
c. B is fastest; 1 1/8 is more than 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
A <em>change</em> is a <em>difference</em>. A <em>rate of change</em> is <em>one difference divided by another</em>, usually the change in y-value divided by the change in x-value.
__
<h3>a.</h3>
The change in elevation is the difference between the elevation at the end of the period (6 inches) and the elevation at the beginning of the period (3 inches). The change in time period is the difference between the end time (8 min) and the beginning time (4 min).
change in elevation per minute = (6 -3 inches)/(8 -4 min)
= (3 inches)/(4 min) = 3/4 inches/minute
__
<h3>b.</h3>
Similarly, ...
change in elevation per minute = (3 -7 1/2 inches)/(18 -14 min)
= (-4 1/2 inches)/(4 min) = -1 1/8 inches/minute
__
<h3>c.</h3>
We know that 3/4 is more than -1 1/8, but when we talk about the "fastest rate of change", we're generally interested in the magnitude--the value without the sign. That means we understand a rate of change of -1 1/8 inches per minute to be "faster" than a rate of change of 3/4 inches per minute.
The rate of change from Part B is fastest. 1 1/8 inches per minute is more than 3/4 inches per minute.
Answer:
6: 12
7: 14
8: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
You do the last (y) term given [18] minus the first (y) term [10] given divided by how many terms it takes to get from the last (y) term given minus the first (y) term given [4]. So the equation looks like this:
(18 - 10)/4= 8/4 = 2
