The answer is 16 hours. This is because 5/8 is equivalent to .625 so we divide the total capacity by that increment and we get 16.

The perimeter of a triangle with two equal sides is 46 cm. If it's base were lengthened by 3 cm and each leg were shortened by 5
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The original triangle has sides of 18 cm, 18 cm and 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x cm be the length of the leg of the original triangle and y cm be the length of the base of the original triangle.

1. Since the perimeter of the original triangle is 46 cm, then

x+x+y=46.

2. If it's base were lengthened by 3 cm, then it becomes y+3 cm. If each leg were shortened by 5 cm, then each leg becomes x-5 cm. All three sides became equal, then

y+3=x-5.

3. Solve the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}2x+y=46\\x-5=y+3\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}2(y+8)+y=46\\x=y+8\end{array}\right.,\ 2y+y=46-16,\ 3y=30,\ y=10\ cm.

Then x=10+8=18\ cm.

In two or more complete sentences, compare the number of x-intercepts in the graph of f(x)=x^2 to the number of x-intercepts in
Ahat [919]
The graph of g(x) = -x^2 is a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of f(x) = x^2. Both graphs have one x-intercept as both graphs have their vertices at the origin, (0,0).

Use the parabola tool to graph the quadratic function f(x)=−12x2+7. Graph the parabola by first plotting its vertex and then plo
Fudgin [204]
First we find the vertex of parabola f(x)=-12 x^{2} +7

The vertex of parabola is ( \frac{-b}{2a},f( \frac{-b}{2a}))
Here,
b = coefficient of x term
a = coefficient of x² term

For given parabola, b = 0 , a = -12

So,
\frac{-b}{2a}= \frac{0}{-24} =0

And,

f( \frac{-b}{2a} )=f(0) = -12(0)+7=7

Thus the vertex of parabola is (0, 7)

To find another point on parabola, substitute x by 1.

f(1)=-12( 1^{2}) +7=-12+7=-5

So the second point on parabola is (1,-5)

The plot of parabola is shown in image below:
