The first answer is A because (b+6) represents the sidewalk length. (With the pool length and the two corners, which equal 3 ft each.) Then, the sidewalk width would be (h+6) for the same reason. Multiply them and get the pool area plus the sidewalk area. But you only need the sidewalk area so you would subtract the pool area from the whole area, to get (b+6)(h+6)-bh, or A in the end.
Unfortunately, I do not know the answers to the rest of the problems. I still hope this helped though!

Answer:</h3>
y = 8/9x + 80/9
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
- Equation of a line as 8x -9y -2 = 0
- Coordinates (-1,8)
We are required to determine the equation of a line parallel to the given line and passing through a point (-1,8)
<h3>Step 1: Determine the Gradient of the given line </h3>
- When an equation is written in the form y = mx + c, m is the gradient.
- Therefore; we could write the equation 8x -9y -2 = 0 in the form of y= mx + c
9y = 8x -2
y = 8/9x - 2/9
Therefore, the slope, m = 8/9
<h3>Step 2: Determine the equation of the line</h3>
- We need to know that parallel lines have the same gradient
- Therefore, the slope of the line in question is 8/9
- It passes through a point (-1, 8)
We can therefore, determine the equation;
Taking another point, (x,y)

9(y-8) = 8(x+1)
9y - 72 = 8x + 8
9y = 8x + 8 +72
9y = 8x + 80
y = 8/9x + 80/9
Therefore, the equation of the line is y = 8/9x + 80/9
Answer:
graph g(x)=1/4 x^2 - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to replace x with (1/2x) in the expression x^2-2
So you have (1/2x)^2-2
1/4 x^2-2
Graph some points for g(x)=1/4 x^2-2
The vertex is (0,-2) and the parabola is open up.
I would graph 2 more points besides the vertex
x | g(x) ordered pairs to graph
----------- (-1,-1.75) and (0,-2) and (1,-1.75)
-1 -1.75
0 -2
1 -1.75
50 miles per hour divided by 30 minutes which is 1/2 hours thus 50/2=25 miles.
