SAT question Can someone explain to me what this is asking

Mathematics
1 answer:
frozen [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex is the turning point of the parabola.

First find the zeros by equating y to zero, that is

(x - 6)(x + 12) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = - 12

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is situated at the midpoint of the zeros, thus

x_{vertex} = \frac{6-12}{2} = \frac{-6}{2} = - 3

Thus the x- coordinate of the vertex is x = - 3 → B

Andy is hanging wallpaper in his kitchen. He is able to cover 2 2/5 of the walls in the room using 6 rolls of wallpaper. What is
faltersainse [42]

Answer: The number of rolls of paper is 2\dfrac{1}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Andy is hanging wallpaper in his kitchen. 6 rolls of wallpaper is used to cover 2\dfrac{2}{5} of the walls.

We are to find the number of rolls of paper used per wall.

We will be using unitary method to solve the given problem.

We have,

2\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{12}{5}.

Now, number of rolls used to cover \dfrac{12}{5} of the walls = 6.

Therefore, number of rolls used to cover 1 wall is given by

\dfrac{6}{\frac{12}{5}}=\dfrac{5\times 6}{12}=\dfrac{5}{2}=2\dfrac{1}{2}.

Thus, 2\dfrac{1}{2} rolls of paper used per wall.

A programmer plans to develop a new software system. In planning for the operating system that he will​ use, he needs to estimat
Contact [7]

Answer:  a. n= 1068

b. n= 164

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the sample size :

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z^{*}}{E})^2

, where p=prior population proportion , z* = critical z-value and E = Margin of error.

Here , let p=proportion of computers that use a new operating system.

Given : Confidence level = 95%

i.e. z* = 1.96  [by z-table]

Margin of error : E = 3% =0.03

a. If p is unknown , then we assume p=0.5

Then, n=(0.5)(1-0.5)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.03})^2=1067.11111\approx1068

i.e. n= 1068

b. p=0.96

Then, n=(0.96)(1-0.96)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.03})^2=163.908266667\approx164

i.e. n= 164.

36 x 108= 3888  sq. inches

3888 inches divided by 12 inches= 324 ft.

720 ft - 324 ft. = 396 ft is the yard only without the garden

Q is the midpoint of line segment PR. PR=9x-31 and QR=43 ; find x
bulgar [2K]

notice that, if Q is the midpoint of PR, that simply means that PQ = QR = 43.


\bf \boxed{P}\underset{\leftarrow 9x-31 \to }{\stackrel{\stackrel{\downarrow }{43}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}Q\stackrel{43}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}}\boxed{R}
\\\\\\
9x-31=43+43\implies 9x-31=86\implies 9x=117
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{117}{9}\implies x=13
