x+y=17000 (x.7+y.15)/100=2000 (7x+7y)+8y=200000. 8y=200000-17000.7 y=61.5.5.5 17000-y=9375=x x=9375
The answer is 1.6
How I figured it out:
I divided 8 by 5, which gave me 1.6
To make sure this was right, I multiplied 1.6 by 5, which gave me an answer of 8 or other known as 8 inches.
In conclusion, the number of inces per hour is 1.6
For the equation,
y = 1/2(x+3)^2 -5
The vertice is (-3,-5). Therefore the axis of symmetry is X = -3.
7 + 2x = 51
hope this helps
