136 - 3x = 40 +5x
136 - 40 = 5x + 3x
96 = 8x
12 = x

40 + 4(12)
40 + 48
88

A.) 12 weeks
B.) $88

Express 5×-4y=20 in the form a×+by+c=0and write the value of a,band c<br><br>

finlep [7]

Answer:

a = 5

b = -4

c = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to express the given equation in the following form;

So we can have this as;

5x-4y-20 = 0

That means we have;

a as 5

b as -4

and c as -20

If PQRS is a rectangle, find the length of QT

MAVERICK [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, opposite sides of a rectangle are equal and each angle is of 90°.

$\therefore$ QP = RS = 14 cm

$In \:\triangle QPS, \: \angle QPS = 90\degree$

$\therefore \: QS= \sqrt{QP^2+ PS^2} \\ \therefore \: QS= \sqrt{(14)^2+ (20)^2 } \\ \therefore \: QS= \sqrt{196 + 400} \\ \therefore \: QS= \sqrt{596} \\ \therefore \: QS= 24.41 \: m$

$\because$ Diagonals of a rectangle bisects each other.

$\therefore\: QT = \frac{1}{2} QS\\\therefore\: QT = \frac{1}{2} \times 24.41\\\therefore\: QT =12.205\\\huge\orange {\boxed {\therefore\: QT =12.21\:m}}$

URGENT, will reward brainliest. Determine the equation of the graph and select the correct answer below.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

In this problem, it will be helpful to know the vertex form of a parabola, which is listed below:

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

$a$ is a constant which helps to determine whether the parabola opens up or down. If $a < 0$ , then the parabola opens downward and if $a > 0$ , the parabola opens upwards
$(h, k)$ is the vertex of the parabola

By looking at the graph, we can first see that the graph opens downwards, meaning that $a < 0$ . Thus, choices C and D are not valid. Now, let's use the vertex of the parabola to complete the equation.

The vertex of this parabola is (-1, 3), as shown by the graph. When we substitute this into our formula, we get:

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

The answer is a, $-(x + 1)^2 + 3$ .
