Your answer would be 4.
If we substitute in x = -8 and y = -4 into the expression, we get:

This then becomes:
=
= 4.
I hope this helps!
Multiply all the terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators
a/9=-4
9 . a/9=9(-4)
The dot means multiplication
Then simplify to simplify cancel the multiplied terms that are in the denominator
a=9 . -4
Multiply the number
9 . -4 =36
And don’t forget to add the negative sign so the answer is
a= -36
Answer:
Statement 1 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If you take t^2 - 16t + 55 and find some of its graphical values, you will get:
Turning point: (8,-9)
Roots: (5,0) and (11,0)
When this graph is plotted and you imagine the x axis to be time (as stated in the question), each of the roots (x - intercept) must be when the swimmer goes under and when they come back up.
This means that the swimmer dived under the water at 5 seconds and came back up at 9, making the first 2 statements correct.
Now the fourth statement is ruled out.
The fifth statement is not plausible as the graph would have to have more than 2 roots for the swimmer to enter the water twice.
That leaves the third statement. If you imagine the depth of the swimmer to be the y axis of our imaginary graph, and we know that the y axis of the turning point is -9, that means that the swimmer's deepest dive was 9 feet under the water, ruling out the third statement too.
Hope this helps :D
Answer:
The sum of 8 and 1 is 9.
lol
Step-by-step explanation:
The LCD of 2/5 + k/4 = 9/10 is 20. Applying this LCD, we get:
8 + 5k = 18. Subtracting 8 from both sides: 5k = 10. Then k = 10/5, or k = 2.
