X+x=15 combine like terms on left side
2x=15 divide both sides by 2
x=7.5
Do you have a calculator? you can solve it by substituting x.
y=16x^2
0: y = 16(0)^2 = 16(0) = 0
(x = 0 , y = 0)
0.5: y = 16(0.5)^2 = 16(0.25) = 4
(x = 0.5 , y = 4)
1: y = 16(1)^2 = 16(1) = 16
(x = 1 , y = 16)
1.5: y = 16(1.5)^2 = 16(2.25) = 36
(x = 1.5 , y = 36)
2: y = 16(2)^2 = 16(4) = 64
(x = 2 , y = 64)
2.5: y = 16(2.5)^2 = 16(6.25) = 100
(x = 2.5 , y = 100)
3 : y = 16(3)^2 = 16(9) = 144
(x = 3 , y = 144)
4: y = 16(4)^2 = 16(16) = 256
(x = 4 , y = 256)
if you multiply a negative number by itself, it will become positive. So, -4, -3, -2.5, -2, -1.5, -1, -0.5 will be the same as the positive 4, 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5, 1, 0.5.
I'm not sure about the pattern, but if you graph it, it'll be symmetrical across the y-axis.
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
78 + b = 91 Equation: Subtract 78 from both sides.
b = 91 - 78
b = 13
You don't need her position in the game or the fact that 91 placed her second.

Answer:
D. F(x) = 1/(x +5)²
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical asymptote at x=-5 tells you that x=-5 will be a zero of the denominator. The only equation with a denominator factor of (x+5) is ...
F(x) = 1/(x +5)²
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The fact that the value of F(x) does not change sign at the vertical asymptote tells you the denominator factor will be of even degree. That is taken for granted here, as all denominators are squares in the answer choices.
