Answer:
a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line of symmetry for the parabola given by ...
y = ax² +bx +c
is
x = -b/(2a)
Using the given values, we have ...
-2 = -(-4)/(2a)
Multiplying by -a/2, we get ...
a = (4/2)(-1/2) = -1
The value of "a" is -1.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the shelves are 75.5cm long, the total length she would be needing is 75.5cm × 6 = 453cm
Now, the length of the wood she is using is 180cm, to get enough length to make the shelves, we would need to divide 453cm by 180cm which gives a value of around 2.51
This is approximately equal to 3 when rounded up to the nearest whole number.
(4 pieces) / (6 kids) = (4/6) (pieces/kids) = 2/3 piece/kid
