Step-by-step explanation:

x2 - 4x - 12

Finding factors of 12 then

x2 - 6x + 2x - 12

x( x - 6) + 2 (x - 6)

So the factors are (x+2) (x-6)

Todd wants to make a snack of a number of grapes and slices of cheese. He knows that each grape has 2 calories. The slice of che
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) C = 2g + 155c

b) g = 25 grapes

c) c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

grapes = g = 2 calories

cheese = c = 155 calories

a) Equation, we consider the amount of grapes and the calores given.

Total calories = C = 2g + 155c

b) We consider that the slices of cheese stays the same

                       2g + 155 = 205

                       2g = 205 -155

                        2g = 50

                        g = 50/2 = 25 grapes

c) Then the number of grapes stays the same

                       2(25) + 155c = 515

                       50 + 155c = 515

                       155c = 515 - 50

                        155c = 465

                        c = 465/155

                        c = 3 slices of cheese

the taxi charges in a city consist of a fixed charge together with the charge for the distance covered. For a distance of 10 km,
Olegator [25]

Answer:

255

Step-by-step explanation:

total cost paid = fixed cost + total variable cost

total variable cost = distance travelled x variable cost per unit

two equations can be derived from the question

a + 10b = 105  equation 1

a + 15b = 155   equation 2

a = fixed cost

b =  variable cost per unit

Subtract equation 1 from 2

5b = 50

b = 10

Substitute for b in equation 1

a + 10(10) = 105

a = 105 - 100 = 5

a = 5

cost of travelling a distance of 25km

5 + 10(25) = 255

2y = x + 3 5y = x - 7 What is the solution set of the given system?
prohojiy [21]
<span>2y = x + 3 then x = 2y - 3
5y = x - 7 then x = 5y + 7

so 
</span>2y - 3 = 5y + 7
2y - 5y = 7 + 3
-3y = 10
y = -10/3
y = -3 1/3

<span>2y = x + 3
</span>2 (-10/3) = x + 3
-20/3 - 3 =x
-29/3 = x
-9 2/3 =x
or
x = -9 2/3

solutions: x = -9 2/3 and y = -3 1/3

Dana walks 3/4 miles in 1/4 hours. What is dana's walking rate in miles per hour?
Harman [31]

Dana’s waking rate in miles per hour is 3 mph.

I did 3/4 x 4 = 3 because she walked 1/4 a mile and I needed to figure out the miles per one whole hour.

I hope this made sense and helped you.

What are the coordinates of the vertex for f(x) = x2 + 4x + 10?
MAVERICK [17]
You have to complete the square to get it into vertex form.  Do this by setting the function equal to zero and at the same time moving the constant over to the other side of the equals sign so you have this: x^{2} +4x=-10.  Now we can complete the square on the polynomial by taking half the linear term, squaring it, and adding it to both sides.  Our linear term is 4. Half of 4 is 2, and 2 squared is 4, so we add 4 to both sides: ( x^{2} +4x+4)=-10+4 and simplify to get ( x^{2} +4x+4)=-6.  In this process we have created a perfect square binomial on the left, which happens to be (x+2) ^{2}=-6.  Now move the -6 back over by addition to get (x+2) ^{2} +6=y.  The vertex is found at (-2, 6), the third choice down.
