Over which interval is the graph of f(x)= -(x+8)^2 decreasing

Sergio039 [100]

Hi try

0.067

Explanation

6.7% = 0.067 in decimal form. Percent means 'per 100'. So, 6.7% means 6.7 per 100 or simply 6.7/100. If you divide 6.7 by 100, you'll get 0.067

In a basketball game Anya makes 14 baskets. Some of these baskets were worth 2-points and others were worth 3-points. In total s

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

She made 12 two point basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the number of 2 point basket is x and that of 3 point basket is y.

Based on the question the total numbers of basket is 14, that is x + y = 14 , and the total numbers of points is 30, which helps us with our second equation 2(x) +3(y)=30.

x + y = 14 eqn 1

2(x) +3(y)=30 eqn 2

Using elimination method multiplying eqn 1 by -3 and adding it to equation 2

-3x-3 y = -42 adding to eqn 2 gives

-x= -12

x=12. Which gives the number of the 2 points basket she made .

Benjamín made 3 times more than Alberto and Carlota 2 times more than Benjamín, so how much is it, help me

vichka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

you are "hiding" some more information (like how much they made together).

without that we cannot calculate the actual values.

all I can do is set up the equations expressing the given relations between the parts of the total :

a = amount Alberto made

b = amount Benjamin made

c = amount Carlota made

b = 3×a

c = 2×b = 2× 3×a = 6×a

that's it.

your see ? now we need something that "ties" all 3 together, an equation of all 3 variables, where we can use the first 2 equations (by substitution) and then solve for the remaining third variable.

and that is missing.

if it is something like "together they made x", then we would have

a + b + c = x

a + 3a + 6a = x

10a = x

a = x/10

b and c we get then from the first 2 equations by simply using the calculated value of a :

b = 3×(x/10) = 3x/10

c = 6×(x/10) = 6x/10 = 3x/5

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Part 40) $y=-2x+9$

Part 41) $y=5x+6$

Part 42) $y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

Part 40) Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point

and is parallel to the given line

we have

Point (4,1)

Given line y=-2x+7

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The given line is a equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

so

The slope of the given line is

$m=-2$

step 2

Find the y-intercept b

we have

$m=-2$

$(4,1)$

substitute in the linear equation

$1=(-2)4+b$

solve for b

$b=1+8$

$b=9$

step 3

Find equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line

we have

$m=-2$

$b=9$

substitute

The equation of the line is

$y=-2x+9$

Part 41) Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point

and is parallel to the given line

we have

Point (0,6)

Given line y=5x-3

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The given line is a equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

so

The slope of the given line is

$m=5$

step 2

Find the y-intercept b

$b=6$ ----> because the y-intercept is the point (0,6) (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

step 3

Find equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line

we have

$m=5$

$b=6$

substitute in the linear equation

$y=5x+6$

Part 42) Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point

and is parallel to the given line

we have

Point (-5,-2)

Given line y=(2/3)x+1

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The given line is a equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

so

The slope of the given line is

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

step 2

Find the y-intercept b

we have

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

$(-5,-2)$

substitute in the linear equation

$-2=(\frac{2}{3})(-5)+b$

solve for b

$-2=-\frac{10}{3}+b$

$b=-2+\frac{10}{3}$

$b=\frac{4}{3}$

step 3

Find equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line

we have

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

$b=\frac{4}{3}$

substitute

The equation of the line is

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{4}{3}$
