-- Subtract K from each side of the equation.
8/5 = 0
-- There is no value for K that can make this a true statement. So the original equation has no solution.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the discriminant you do b^2-4(a)(c), which in this case gives you -28. If your discriminant is less than zero, you will have no real roots.
After 14 weeks, both Megan and Conner will have saved the same amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount Megan have = $50
Amount saved each week = $5.50
Amount Conner have = $18.50
Amount saved each week = $7.75
Let,
x be the number of weeks.
According to given statement;
M(x) = 50+5.50x Eqn 1
C(x) = 18.50+7.75x Eqn 2
For amount to be same;
Eqn 1 = Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 2.25
After 14 weeks, both Megan and Conner will have saved the same amount.

Answer:
q = -8, k = 2.
r = -6.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = (x - p)^2 + q
This is the vertex form of a quadratic where the vertex is at the point (p, q).
Now the x intercepts are at -6 and 2 and the curve is symmetrical about the line x = p.
The value of p is the midpoint of -6 and 2 which is (-6+2) / 2 = -2.
So we have:
f(x) = 1/2(x - -2)^2 + q
f(x) = 1/2(x + 2)^2 + q
Now the graph passes through the point (2, 0) , where it intersects the x axis, therefore, substituting x = 2 and f(x) = 0:
0 = 1/2(2 + 2)^2 + q
0 = 1/2*16 + q
0 = 8 + q
q = -8.
Now convert this to standard form to find k:
f(x) = 1/2(x + 2)^2 - 8
f(x) = 1/2(x^2 + 4x + 4) - 8
f(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x + 2 - 8
f(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x - 6
So k = 2.
The r is the y coordinate when x = 0.
so r = 1/2(0+2)^2 - 8
= -6.
