In each of the following ,make y the subject and hence find the value of y when a=2, b=3 ,and c=4.

zvonat [6]

Part i

$\dfrac{2a-7}{6y} = \dfrac{3b-5}{2c}$

$y = \dfrac{ 2c(2a-7)}{6(3b-5)} = \dfrac{c(2a-7)}{9b-15}$

Substituting,

$y = \dfrac{4(2(2)-7)}{9(3)-15} = \dfrac{ -12}{12} = -1$

Answer: -1

Part ii

I'm not sure that one's typed in correctly but I'll solve it as written.

$3-34y + 2a = \dfrac{3b-5}{2c + 1}$

$34y = 3+2a-\dfrac{3b-5}{2c + 1}$

$y = \frac 1 {34}\left(3+2a-\dfrac{3b-5}{2c + 1} \right)$

We're not asked to simplify it so I wont. Substituting,

$y = \frac 1 {34}\left(3+2(2)-\dfrac{3(3)-5}{2(4) + 1} \right) = \frac 1 {34}(7-4/9) = \dfrac{59}{306}$

Consider h(x)=x^2+8+15. identify its vertex and y-intercept.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Vertex: (-4, -1)

Y-intercept: (0, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quaratic function, h(x) = x² + 8x + 15:

In order to determine the vertex of the given function, we can use the formula, $[x = \frac{-b}{2a}, h(\frac{-b}{2a})]$ .

<h3>Use the equation: $[x = \frac{-b}{2a}, h(\frac{-b}{2a})]$ </h3>

In the quadratic function, h(x) = x² + 8x + 15, where:

a = 1, b = 8, and c = 15:

Substitute the given values for <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> into the equation to solve for the x-coordinate of the vertex.

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

$x = \frac{-8}{2(1)}$

x = -4

Subsitute the value of the x-coordinate into the given function to solve for the <u>y-coordinate of the vertex</u>:

h(x) = x² + 8x + 15

h(-4) = (-4)² + 8(-4) + 15

h(-4) = 16 - 32 + 15

h(-4) = -1

Therefore, the vertex of the given function is (-4, -1).

<h3>Solve for the Y-intercept:</h3>

The <u>y-intercept</u> is the point on the graph where it crosse the y-axis. In order to find the y-intercept of the function, set x = 0, and solve for the y-intercept:

h(x) = x² + 8x + 15

h(0) = (0)² + 8(0) + 15

h(0) = 0 + 0 + 15

h(0) = 15

Therefore, the y-intercept of the quadratic function is (0, 15).

I need to know how to get the scale factor from a h-shaped polygon

Lesechka [4]

“To find the scale factor, we simply create a ratio of the lengths of two corresponding sides of two polygons. If the ratio is the same for all corresponding sides, then this is called the scale factor and the polygons are similar.”

(03.05 MC) Solve the rational equation x divided by 2 equals x squared divided by quantity x minus 2 end quantity, and check for

ycow [4]

Answer:

x = 0 and x = -2 are solutions of the given rational equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We must solve the following rational equation:

$\frac{x}{2} = \frac{x^{2}}{x-2}$

Now we present the procedure:

1) $\frac{x}{2} = \frac{x^{2}}{x-2}$ Given

2) $x\cdot (x-2) = 2\cdot x^{2}$ Compatibility with multiplication/Existence of the multiplicative inverse/Definition of division/Modulative property.
