30.0 ounces is correct. Using any pairs of numbers in the table,plug into values for x and y and solve for k.

Use one of the ordered pairs that are given to find the value of 'k', the CONSTANT of variation. This number will not change, hence the word 'constant'.
15 = k*6; dividing both sides by 6 we get k = 2.5; The equation used for the table is y = 2.5x
You can find any value now by using this formula.
y = 2.5*12
y = 30

What is the number of square units in the area of the triangle is vertices are points A ( 2,0), B( 6,0) and C (8,5)
lakkis [162]

From points (2, 0) and (6, 0), you can get base = 6 - 2 = 4.

From point (8, 5), you get a height of length 5.

A = bh/2 = 4 * 5/2 = 10

Area = 10 square units

Complete a table with at least 5 points then graph the following quadratic on the coordinate plane. Identify all zeros.y = -2x2
Anna [14]

Answer:

See attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

  • y = -2x² + 5x + 8

Table and graph are attached

Zeros are included in the graph

<u>Zero's are obtained:</u>

x = 0 ⇒ y = 8

y = 0 ⇒  Solving quadratic equation

  • -2x² + 5x + 8 = 0
  • x = (-5 ± √(25 + 2*4*8))/-4
  • x = 3.608
  • x = -1.108

So zeros are (0, 8), (3.608, 0) and (-1.108, 0)
