In multiplication, the order doesn't matter.

2 rows of 7 and 7 rows of 2 is the same.

If you have seven 2's, that's the same as two 7's.

See here:

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 14

7 + 7 = 14

Or:

2 * 7 = 7 * 2 = 14

Order the group of parabolas from widest to narrowest.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2,\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x^2,\ y=\dfrac{3}{2}x^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola: y = ax²

The larger the value of |a|, the narrower the parabola.

We have the following coefficients a:

$\left|\dfrac{1}{4}\right|=\dfrac{1}{4},\ \left|-\dfrac{1}{2}\right|=\dfrac{1}{2},\ \left|\dfrac{3}{2}\right|=\dfrac{3}{2},$

We arrange the coefficients from the smallest to the largest:

$\dfrac{1}{4}\$

Therefore you have the answer:

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2,\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x^2,\ y=\dfrac{3}{2}x^2$

15. A survey of 2,000 doctors showed that an average of 3 out of 5 doctors use brand X aspirin. How many doctors use brand X asp

belka [17]

2000 divided by 5 is 400. 400 time 3 is 1200. You could also do 2000*.6 (because .6 = 3/5)
