In short, for a vertical parabola, namely one whose independent variable is on the x-axis, usually is x², if the leading term coefficient is negative, the parabola opens downward, and its peak or vertex is at a maximum, check the picture below at the left-hand-side.

and when the leading term coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upwards, with a minimum, check the picture below at the right-hand-side.

Which ratio is equivalent to 3/7? <br> A) 6 to 10<br> B) 9:12<br> C) 12/35<br> D) 7 to 3
Leona [35]

we are ratio as

=\frac{3}{7}

It will be equivalent to only those terms which would be multiple of this term

so, we will multiply top and bottom term by 5

and we get

=\frac{3\times 5}{7\times 5}

=\frac{15}{7\times 5}

=\frac{15}{35}

so, it is very similar to 12/35

so, it will be equivalent to 12/35

so, option-C.......Answer

Write the equation of a line that has a slope of -7 and a y intercept of 9. ( Hint: Use the formula y = mx + b )
iogann1982 [59]
The y intercept is 9 and the unit rate is -7

So we plug these numbers in
y= -7x (the unit rate)+ 9 (y intercept)

y= -7x+9
