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

Answer:

1) B. $12

2) B. Rich burns 1 more calorie per minute than Katie

3) C. Jeffery walks 5 meters per minute slower than Fumi.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  earnings / hours = salary

salary = 24/2 = 60/5 = 96/8 = 12

salary = $12

2) The question describes Rich's graph to have the function of "y=8x." The graph shown that represents Katie's number of burned calories has the function of "y=7x." From that we can conclude Rich burns one more calorie per minute. See attached file for graph.

3) The question describes Fumi's graph to have the function of "y=85x." In order to find the function of Jeffrey's graph, we must use the two points provided from the graph. The point (10, 800) tells us that the point (1,80) would also fall on the line. From that, we can determine Jeffery's function to be "y=80x." 80 is 5 less than 85, so Fumi walks 5 meters per minute faster than Jeffery.

What is one of the solutions to the following equations? y2+x2=53<br> Y-x=5
Olenka [21]
(1)  y² + x² = 53
(2)  y - x = 5 ⇒ y = x + 5

subtitute (2) to (1)

(x + 5)² + x² = 53      |use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

x² + 2x·5 + 5² + x² = 53

2x² + 10x + 25 = 53     |subtract 53 from both sides

2x² + 10x - 28 =0     |divide both sides by 2

x² + 5x - 14 = 0

x² - 2x+ 7x - 14 = 0

x(x - 2) + 7(x - 2) = 0

(x - 2)(x + 7) = 0 ⇔ x - 2 = 0 or x + 7 = 0 ⇔ x = 2 or x = -7

subtitute the values of y to (2)

for x = 2, y = 5 + 2 = 7
for x = -7, y = 5 + (-7) = 5 - 2 = 3

Answer: x = 2 and y = 7 or x = -7 and y = 3

The density of oxygen is 0.001429 grams per cubic centimeter. How is this number written in
Anika [276]

We have been given that the density of oxygen is 0.001429 grams per cubic centimeter. We are asked to write the given number in scientific notation.

To convert a number into scientific notation, we write the given number as product of two numbers. One factor is a number between 1 and 10, while the 2nd factor is power of 10.  

When a decimal is to the left of given number, then we need to move the decimal to right such that the number gets between 1 and 10. Then, we multiply the number by negative power of 10 that many times, we moved the decimal to right.    

We can see that decimal is to left of our number. To place decimal after 1, we have to multiply 10 to 3 times. To keep the value of number same we will multiply the same negative power (negative 3).

0.001429\times 10^3\times 10^{-3}

(0.001429\times 10^3)\times 10^{-3}

(1.429)\times 10^{-3}

1.429\times 10^{-3}

Therefore, the number 0.001429 will be 1.429\times 10^{-3} in scientific notation.
