B^2 + 13b + 2b + 3 - 4
= b^2 +15b - 1

The like terms include 13b and 2b and when you combine them you get 15b. 3 and -4 are also like terms and when you combine them you get -1. b^2 doesnt have any like terms so its the same. The final answer is b^2+15b-1

Imagine a new pasture with grass growing on it. Every day after the seeds have germinated, the number of blades of grass in the

Arisa [49]

Answer:

It took 17 days for the pasture to be one-third covered in grass

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The number of blades of grass is triple every day

- Consider that there are x blades in the first day

∵ The number of blades of grass is triple every day

∴ The next day the number of blades of grass will be 3x

∴ The formula to find the number of blades of grass after d days is

$x(3)^{d}$

- After 18 days, the entire pasture is completely covered in grass

∵ d = 18

∴ The number of blades of grass = $x(3)^{18}$

- We need to know the the number of days that took for the pasture

to be one-third covered in grass

∵ The number of blades of grass for 1/3 covered = $(\frac{1}{3})x(3)^{18}$

∴ $(\frac{1}{3})x(3)^{18}=x(3)^{d}$

- Remember $\frac{1}{3}=3^{-1}$

∴ $3^{-1}x(3)^{18}=x(3)^{d}$

- Remember we add the power of the same bases when we

multiply them

∴ $x(3)^{-1+18}=x(3)^{d}$ ⇒ divide both sides by x

∴ $(3)^{17}=(3)^{d}$

- Remember if the two bases equal in the equation, then their

powers are equal

∴ d = 17

* It took 17 days for the pasture to be one-third covered in grass

The ___ of a parabola is the line, along with a point not on the line, which is used to generate a parabola.

enot [183]

Answer:

Directrix

Step-by-step explanation:

The directrix of a parabola is the line, along with a point not on the line (which is the focus), which is used to generate a parabola. The directrix is parallel either to the x- or y-axis, and is perpedicular to the parabola's axis of symmetry (at x = h).

Therefore, the correct answer is "directrix."
