Answer:
The equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is x = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
For parabola's, it's axis of symmetry always goes through the vertex of the parabola. In other words, the axis of symmetry is vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the vertex.
Now, the vertex is given as (0,3) which is at x = 0, y = 3.
Thus, the vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the vertex will be x = 0
Thus, the equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is x = 0.
Answer:
Part A: That 6 pounds of rice costs $18
Part B: (1,3) represents the unit price
Part C: 4 pounds of rice, because $12/3 equals 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: The first point, 6, is on the amount of rice axis and the second point, 18, is on the total cost axis.
Part B: The unit price means the price for just 1 of something, so if you go to 1 pound of rice on the graph, you see it's at 3 on the total cost axis. Which means that 1 pound of rice costs $3.
Part C: From Part B you know that 1 pound of rice equals $3. So if you spend $12, then you can divide that by $3 to see how many pounds of rice you bought. 12/3 equals 4, so you bought 4 pounds of rice. Or you can count by 3's until you get to 12: 3, 6, 9, 12. That's 4 times so that means you bought 4 pounds of rice.
Answer:
D. on the x axis is the best answer
Millimeters as my science teacher has just said.
