Answer:
A. 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is just the sum of all of the side lengths. The sides of this triangle are n inches, (n + 5.2) inches, and (2n + 3.4) inches.
So, your equation is n + n + 5.2 + 2n + 3.4 = 22.6 inches.
You can combine like terms (adding together all of the n's and all of the numbers) to simplify your equation to 4n + 8.6 = 22.6 inches.
Subtract 8.6 from both sides of the equation to get 4n = 14, and divide both sides by 4 to get n = 3.5.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
The equation of the quadratic graph is f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3 (second option)
Step-by-step explanation:
Focus: F=(3,1)=(xf, yf)→xf=3, yf=1
Directrix: y=5 (horizontal line), then the axis of the parabola is vertical, and the equation has the form:
f(x)=[1 / (4p)] (x-h)^2+k
where Vertex: V=(h,k)
The directix y=5 must intercept the axis of the parabola at the point (3,5), and the vertex is the midpoint between this point and the focus:
Vertex is the midpoint between (3,5) and (3,1):
h=(3+3)/2→h=6/2→h=3
k=(5+1)/2→k=6/2→k=3
Vertex: V=(h,k)→V=(3,3)
p=yf-k→p=1-3→p=-2
Replacing the values in the equation:
f(x)= [ 1 / (4(-2)) ] (x-3)^2 + 3
f(x)=[ 1 / (-8) ] (x-3)^2 + 3
f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3
Simplified answer would be 60k^2+k
and you get that answer by combining like terms, Good Luck!
Answer:
$42.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create a proportion using the following setup:
cost/pounds=cost/pounds
We know that it costs $20.42 for a 10 pound turkey.
$20.42/10 pounds= cost/pounds
We don't know how much a 21 pound turkey costs, so we can say that it costs $x for a 21 pound turkey.
$20.42/ 10 pounds= $x/ 21 pounds
20.42/10=x/21
We want to find x, by getting x by itself.
x is being divided by 21. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 21.
21*(20.42/10)=(x/21)*21
21* 20.42/10=x
21*2.042=x
42.882=x
Round to the nearest cent, or hundredth.
42.88=x
x= $42.88
A 21 pound turkey costs $42.88
