I'm sorry, but the spinner that you choose does matter in this case.

For spinner A, there are 5 equal sections with a 1 being in only one of them as well. This gives you a \frac{1}{5} chance of landing on the number 1.

For spinner B, there are 6 equal sections with a 1 being in only one of them. This gives you a \frac{1}{6} chance of landing on the number 1 - a worse chance than if you were to use spinner A.

So for this question, you have a better chance of landing on number 1 if you choose to use spinner A.

Find the average rate of change of f(x) = -x² + 5x+2 from x=3 to x=6.
ivolga24 [154]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The points at the ends of the interval are ...

  (3, f(3)) = (3, 8)

  (6, f(6)) = (6, -4)

The slope is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (-4 -8)/(6 -3) = -12/3 = -4

The average rate of change is -4.

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add up to have a sum of 90 degrees. We can create an equation and solve for x.

3x + 6x - 18 = 90

~Simplify

9x - 18 = 90

~Add 18 to both sides

9x = 108

~Divide 9 to both sides

x = 12

Best of Luck!

A total of 243 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student t
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

81 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Set up a system of equations

Since the adult tickets and student tickets add to 243, we can do

a+s=243

and the student tickets sold were 2x the adult tickets, we can do

s=2a

We can replace s in the first equation adding to 243 with 2a

a+s(2a)=243\\3a=243\\

Step 2:

Solve for a. We can divide both sides by 3.

a=81

Therefore, there were 81 adult tickets sold.

Step 3:

We can check our work! Since we learned earlier the student tickets are 2x adult tickets, we can multiply 81 by 2 and add that to 81 to see if it equals 243!

s=2a\\s=2(81)\\s=162

And...

162+81=243

So, 81 must be the answer!

The focus of a parabola is located at (4,0), and the directrix is located at x = –4.
Tanzania [10]
The distance between the focus and directrix is, in this case, 8. Since the directrix is at x= something, the parabola opens sideways, and since the directrix is on the left, to the right. In which case, y^2=p(x), where p is 4 times distance of half of distance between directrix and focus, so the answer is y^2=16x
