I would say A. Because if you add the fractions and the divide by 3(because I added the factions) the denominator is 7 and the numerator is 1 (idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think is right)

Answer:

Gerri spends 1/7 (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

If Gerri spends 1/21 of her money on pencils and 2/21 of her money on paper, adding these two fractions together will give us the total fraction of her money that she spent.  Since 1/21 and 2/21 have the same denominator, we can add the numerators to get 3/21.  However, fractions must always be in simplest form, meaning if the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) can both be divided evenly by the same factor, then the fraction can be simplied to lower numbers.  In this case the number 3 and the number 21 can both be divided evenly by 3:  (3÷3)/21÷3) = 1/7.

Answer:

y = 27°

Step-by-step explanation:

3y + 53 = 7y - 55

53 + 55 = 7y - 3y

4y = 108

y = 108 : 4

y = 27°

3(27) + 53 = 81 + 53 = 134°

Given ​ f(x)=x2+14x+40 ​. <br> Enter the quadratic function in vertex form in the box. <br> f(x)=
sukhopar [10]
We know that
the quadratic function in vertex form is--------------> y=a*(x-h)²+k

we have
f(x)=x²<span>+14x+40
y=</span>x²+14x+40

We can convert to vertex form by completing the square on the right hand side
y-40=x²+14x
y-40-49=x²+14x-49------> subtract 49 on BOTH sides to preserve the equality
y-40=(x²+14x+49)-49
y=(x²+14x+49)-49+40---------> y=(x+7)²-9

the answer is
the quadratic function in vertex form-----------> y=(x+7)²-9
<span>the vertex is the point (-7,-9)

</span>
