Answer:

In the first half, they scored 9 points.

in the second half, they scored:

-3 + 2*9 = 18 - 3 = 15 points.

The total number of points scored is 9 + 15 = 24 points.

Now we want to know:

"What is the ratio of the points scored in the second half to the total number of points scored?"

The ratio between two numbers a and b is written as:

a:b

In this case, the ratio will be:

15:24

But we should simplify this ratio, we can divide both sides by the same number and the ratio will remain unchanged.

As both numbers are multiples of 3, we can divide both sides by 3.

15/3 = 5.

24/3 = 8

Then:

15:24 = 5:8

The ratio is 5:8

The graph of a quadratic relationship is in the shape of a parabola. Parabolas are symmetric arcs and are useful for modeling re
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • The arcs on the Golden Gate Bridge.

Explanation:

I think about the Golden Gate Bridge, which is a suspension bridge.

As in any suspension bridge, a long cable is supported by two large supports.

The cable falls from a support, in the form of a curve concave upwards, to a minimum point that is the vertex of the<em> parabola</em>, through which the axis of <em>symmetry</em> passes, and curves again upwards to ascend to the upper end of the other support.

As a <em>unique feature</em> of this parabolic arc you can tell that the the concavity is upward; the parabola open upward.

Also, you can tell that the parabola is vertical, which means that the axis of symmetry is vertical.

The <em>symmetry</em> is clear because to the curve to the left of the vertex is a mirror image of the curve to the right of the vertex.

If g(x)= x^2-2x-6 and h(x)= 2x^2-5x+2 find (h-g) (-2)
Natalka [10]

Answer:

<h2>(h - g)( - 2) = 18</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = x² - 2x - 6

h(x) = 2x² - 5x + 2

To find (h-g) (-2) we must first find h - g(x)

To find h - g(x) subtract g(x) from h(x)

We have

<h3>(h - g)(x) =  {2x}^{2}  - 5x + 2 - ( {x}^{2}  - 2x - 6)  \\  =  {2x}^{2}  - 5x + 2 -  {x}^{2}  + 2x + 6 \\  =  {2x}^{2}  -  {x}^{2}  - 5x + 2x + 2 + 6</h3><h3>(h - g)(x) =  {x}^{2}  - 3x + 8</h3>

To find (h-g) (-2) substitute the value of x that's - 2 into (h - g)(x) that's replace every x in (h - g)(x) by - 2

That's

<h3>(h - g)( - 2) =  ({ - 2})^{2}  - 3( - 2) + 8 \\  = 4 + 6 + 8 \\  = 10 + 8</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>(h - g)( - 2) = 18</h3>

Hope this helps you
