Answer:
-0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'a' value can be found by looking at the difference between the y-value of a point 1 unit from the vertex, and the y-value of the vertex.
Here, that is a negative fraction of a unit. If we assume the value is a rational number that can be accurately determined from this graph, then we can find it by looking for a point where the graph crosses a grid intersection. It looks like such grid points are (-7, 0) and (3, 0). The vertex is apparently (-2, 4), so the vertex form of the equation is ...
y = a(x +2)^2 +4
Using the point (3, 0), we have ...
0 = a(3 +2)^2 +4 . . . . . fill in the values of x and y
-4 = 25a . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4; next, divide by 25
a = -4/25 = -0.16
The correct answer is 60cm^2 because the area of a triangle is half base*height -> 30/2*40
Answer:
6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
A swim meet has 13 contestants signed up. To calculate the arrangement of first 6 swimmers in first heat we will use combinations because order doesn't matter.
So to select 6 swimmers out of 13 contestants number of different ways
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 1716
Therefore, 6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.

Trial and error
tried 8 x 6 =48
i used 10 x 5 to get closer to 100
10 x 5= 50
50+ 48= 98 all I need is 6 which is 2 x 3
8 x 6 = 48
5 x 10= 50
3 x 2 = 6
Total = 104
Hope this helps
