Answer:

A) the vertex is a maximum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, where is "a" is negative.

a < 0, means the graph of the parabola opens down. when the parabola opens down we will have the vertex as a maximum point.

Therefore, answer is A) the vertex is a maximum.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: $\dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce.}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A biologist studied how cells grow by adding liquid protein to cell samples.

She divided $\dfrac{3}{5}$ of an ounce of liquid protein evenly among 3 cell samples.

Here , total quantity of liquid protein = $\dfrac{3}{5}$ of an ounce

Total cell samples = 3

Now , Quantity of liquid protein given by her to each cell = (total quantity of liquid protein ) ÷ (3)

= $\dfrac{3}{5}\times\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce}$ .

Hence, Quantity of liquid protein given by her to each cell = $\dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce.}$

Divide 56 in a ratio of 5.3

Varvara68 [4.7K]

In order to find what one part is in a ratio, you have to add the ratio up ( 5+ 3) and divide it by the number you're looking for (56). In this case, you get 56/8, which gives you 7. Therefore, each part is worth 7. You then have to multiply both sides of the ratio (5 and 3) by 7. 5x7= 35. 3x7= 21. Therefore, 56 divided into the ratio of 5:3 is 35:21
