Answer:
y = 0.5 (x^2 -2x + 16) has a y-intercept of 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-coordinate of every y-intercept is zero. To determine which of the four quadratics given here has a y-intercept of 8, we need only substitute 0 for x in each; if the result is 8, we've found the desired quadratic.
O y = 0.5(x + 2)(x + 4) becomes y = 0.5(2)(4) = 4 (reject this answer)
O y = 0.5 (x - 2)(x + 8) becomes y = 0.5(-2)(8) = -8 (reject)
O y = 0.5(x2 -2x - 16) becomes y = 0.5(-16) = -8 (reject)
<em>O y = 0.5 (x2 -2x + 16) becomes y = 0.5(16) = 8 This is correct; that '8' represents the y-intercept (0, 8).</em>

Answer:Jason is 5 years old.
John is 4 years old.
Jackson is 12 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the age of Jason.
Let y represent the age of John.
Let z represent the age of Jackson.
The ages of three siblings Jason John and Jackson totals 21 years. It means that
x + y + z = 21 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Jason is one year older than John. It means that
x = y + 1
Jackson is three times as old as John. It means that
z = 3y
Substituting x = y + 1 and z = 3y into equation 1, it becomes
y + 1 + y + 3y = 21
5y = 21 - 1 = 20
y = 20/5 = 4
x = y + 1 = 4 + 1
x = 5
z = 3y = 3 × 4
z = 12
