Answer:

  • 16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation for the Highland population</u>

  • 12200 + 300x

<u>Equation for the Lowville population</u>

  • 21000 -250x

<u>Populations are equal after</u>

  • 12200 + 300x = 21000 - 250x
  • 300x + 250x = 21000 - 12200
  • 550x = 8800
  • x = 8800/550
  • x = 16 years

Y=x^2+bx+c;(-2,3)
Maksim231197 [3]
<h3>Answer:  b = 4 and c = 7.</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Comparing y = x^2+bx+c to y = ax^2+bx+c, we see that a = 1.

The vertex given is (-2,3). In general, the vertex is (h,k). So h = -2 and k = 3.

Plug those three values into the vertex form below

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1(x-(-2))^2 + 3

y = (x+2)^2 + 3

Then expand everything out and simplify

y = x^2+4x+4 + 3

y = x^2+4x+7

We see that b = 4 and c = 7.

Julli [10]

Answer:

25 train routes

Step-by-step explanation:

The train routes go from 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, ,and so on, but there is also one that goes from 25-1. If you notice, there when we get to 4-5, there are 4 train routes which means that if there are 25 towns, then there are 24 train routes, but since 25 and 1 are connected then there are 25 routes. Hope this helps!

The answer to the problem i asked
guapka [62]
8(4x+5)=136
Multiply the number outside of the parenthesis(8) with the numbers inside the parenthesis(4x and 5).
32x+40=136
Subtract 40 from both sides
32x=96
Divide both sides by 32 so the only thing remaining on the side of the variable is only the variable itself.
