Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average length of each car is

0.003 mile. The length of each car includes the bumper. The cars are in one lane. This means all the cars can be assumed to form a long line of cars that is uniform in length. This length is divided into equal lengths if cars.

The length of the traffic jam which is also the length of the line of is 7/8 = 0.875 mile long.

The number of cars would be in the that would be in the traffic jam will be length of the traffic jam/ length of each car. It becomes

0.875/0.003 = 292 cars

Answer:

(-b/2a, b^2/(4*a) - b^2/2a + c)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a general parabola:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

We can write the vertex as:

(h, k)

The x-value of the vertex is the value of the axis of symmetry.

Then we have:

h = x = -b/2a

Now we need to find the y-value of the vertex.

To do that, we just replace the variable "x" by the x-value of the vertex in our equation, so we get:

k = y = a*(-b/2a)^2 + b*(-b/2a) + c

k = b^2/(4*a) - b^2/2a + c

Then the coordinates of the vertex are:

(h, k) = (-b/2a, b^2/(4*a) - b^2/2a + c)

irakobra [83]

Answer:

X= 5 ( 2 + Y )❤️

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. X = 5y + 10
  • X= 5( Y + 2 )

  1. 2x-10y= 20
  • 2( X - 5y ) = 20
  • (x-5y ) = 20/2
  • X - 5y = 10
  • X= 10 + 5y
  • X = 5 ( 2 + Y )

Ann [662]

Answer:

BC : BN = 8 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines divide any transversal into segments with the same ratio. That means ...

... BN : NC = AM : MD = 3 : 5

Since BC = BN + NC, the desired ratio is ...

... BC : BN = (BN+NC) : BN = (3+5) : 3

... BC : BN = 8 : 3
