The vertex form of the equation of a parabola is

                     f(x) = a( x − h)^2 + k

where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola. In this case, we are given that      (h,k) = (5,0). Hence,

                     f(x) = a( x − 5)^2 + 0

                           =a( x − 5)^2

Since we also know the parabola passes through the point (7,−2), we can solve for a because we know that f(7) = −2.

                        a( 7 − 5)^2 = -2

                           a(2)^2 = -2

                              4a = -2

                               a = -1/2

Thus, the given parabola has equation

                      f(x) = -1/2(x − 5)^2

Pastries made out of filo dough are brushed with either olive oil or butter (but not both). Pastries made out of shortcrust doug
givi [52]

Answer:

3X/20 (option a) of the pastries submitted by Rashid and Mikhail were brushed with butter

Step-by-step explanation:

Rashid pastries (R)

Mikhail pastries (M)

Rashid and Mikhail submitted a total of x pastries

R+M=x (I)

Rashid made 2/3 as many pastries as Mikhail

(2/3)*R=M (II)

Using II in I

R+(2/3)*R=x

(5/3)*R = x

R=(3/5)*x (III)

Using III in I

(3/5)*x+M=x

M=x-(3/5)*x

M=(2/5)*x (IV)

Mikhail filo dough (MF)

Mikhail shortcrust dough (MS)

Rashid filo dough (RF)

Rashid shortcrust dough (RS)

Mikhail used filo dough for all of his pastries

MF=M

MS=0

Rashid used shortcrust dough for all of his pastries

RS=R

RF=0

Filo dough (FD)

FD=RF+MF=0+MF=MF=M (V)

5/8 of the filo dough pastries were brushed with olive oil

pastries brushed with olive oil (OI)

(5/8)*FD=OI

Using V

(5/8)*M=OI

Using IV

(5/8)*(2/5)*x=OI

(1/4)*x=OI (VI)

pastries brushed with butter (B)

Pastries made out of filo dough are brushed with either olive oil or butter (but not both)

FD=OI+B

B=FD-OI

Using V and VI

B= M - (1/4)*x

Using IV

B = (2/5)*x - (1/4)*x

B= (3/20)*x

3X/20 (option a) of the pastries submitted by Rashid and Mikhail were brushed with butter

timothyis re-arranging his marbles collection. he has 5 identical blue marbles, five green and 3 black. he can fit excactly 5 ma
Lerok [7]
-- He must have at least one of each color in the case, so the first 3 of the 5 marbles in the case are  blue-green-black.

Now the rest of the collection consists of

                    4 blue
                    4 green
                    2 black

and there's space for 2 more marbles in the case.

So the question really asks:  "In how many ways can 2 marbles
be selected from 4 blue ones, 4 green ones, and 2 black ones ?"

-- Well, there are 10 marbles all together. 
So the first one chosen can be any one of the 10,
       and for each of those,
the second one can be any one of the remaining 9 .

Total number of ways to pick 2 out of the 10  =  (10 x 9)  =  90 ways.

-- BUT ... there are not nearly that many different combinations
to wind up with in the case.    

The first of the two picks can be any one of the 3 colors,
             and for each of those,
the second pick can also be any one of the 3 colors. 

So there are actually only 9 distinguishable ways (ways that
you can tell apart) to pick the last two marbles.
