2 answers:

6 0

The standard form of the quadratic equation is ax^2 + bx + c. In vertex form, it's y = a(x – h)2 + k.
The graph of a quadratic equation is a parabola, which looks like a u. If a is negative then it's an upside down u.

A movie theater has 85 seats. One rainy day in the summer, all seats were sold and the ticket income was $121. If adult tickets

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

children = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

two equations can be derived from this question

x + y = 85 equation 1

3x + y = 121 equation 2

where x = number of adults

y = number of children

subtract equation 1 from 2

2x = 36

x = 18

substitute for x in equation 1

y = 85 - 18 = 67

The perimeter of a rectangle is 46 millimeters. The length of the rectangle can be represented by (3x+3), and its width can be r

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The dimension of this rectangle = 2mm by 21mm

Where 2 mm = Width of the rectangle

21 mm = Length of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)

= 2L + 2W

The perimeter = 46 mm

L = 3x + 3

W = x - 4

P = 2L + 2W

46mm = 2(3x + 3) + 2(x - 4)

46 = 6x + 6 + 2x - 8

Collect like terms

46 +8 -6 = 6x + 2x

48 = 8x

x = 48/8

x = 6

Since the Length = 3x + 3

= 3(6) + 3

= 18 + 3

= 21mm

Since the Width = x - 4

= 6 - 4

= 2mm

Therefore, the dimension of this rectangle = 2mm by 21mm

Where 2 mm = Width of the rectangle

21 mm = Length of the rectangle.

a flower bed is in the shape of a triangle with one side twice the length of the shortest side and the third side is 19 feet mor

Neporo4naja [7]

Let's assume

shorter side as x

so, first side =2x

third side =x+19

now, we can find perimeter of triangle

perimeter of any triangle is

first side + shortest side + third side

so, we get

$P=2x+x+x+19$

we are given perimeter=187

so, we can set it to 187

and then solve for x

$187=2x+x+x+19$

$187=4x+19$

$4x+19-19=187-19$

$4x=168$

$x=42$

so,

shortest length is x=42 feet

First side =2x=2*42=84feet

third side =x+19=42+19=61 feet

so, dimensions are

first side is 42 feet

second side is 84 feet

third side is 61 feet................Answer
