How many quarter hours are in 5 hours

miss Akunina [59]

Part A: As we have learned when given a pair of equations, we must always find a Point of Intersection....or, in other words...the solution of the lines given to us. As we know there can be one solution, in this case we view the graph; see where they intersect, and realize that the solution to these lines (Point of Intersection) is at (4,4).

Thus, your answer.

Solve each system by substitution. y=-4x-9 y=3x+19

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

x=-4, y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the first equation, y = -4x - 9, so we can substitute y in the second equation for -4x - 9.

y = 3x + 19

-4x - 9 = 3x + 19

Add 9 to both sides

-4x = 3x + 28

Subtract 3x

-7x = 28

Divide by -7

x = -4

Plugging this into the equation, we have:

y = -4x - 9

y = -4(-4) - 9

y = 16 - 9

y = 7

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Lunna [17]

NOTES:

Given a quadratic function in standard format (y = ax² + bx + c), the direction of the parabola is as follows:

if "a" is positive, then opens UP
if "a" is negative, then opens DOWN

Given a quadratic function in standard format (y = ax² + bx + c), the vertex can be found as follows:

the Axis Of Symmetry (x-value) is: x = $\frac{-b}{2a}$
y-value is found by plugging in the AOS for "x" in the equation

****************************************************************************************

1) y = x² + 11x + 24

a = +1 so the parabola opens UP

x = $\frac{-b}{2a}$ = $\frac{-11}{2(1)}$ = $-\frac{11}{2}$

y = $(-\frac{11}{2})^{2}$ + 11 $(-\frac{11}{2} )$ + 24 = $-\frac{25}{4}$

vertex $(-\frac{11}{2}$ , $-\frac{25}{4})$ is in Quadrant 3 and is below the x-axis

This COULD be the graph of the rain gauge.

The graph should contain the vertex, x-intercepts (-3, 0) and (-8, 0), and y-intercept (0, 24)

******************************************************************************************

2) y = -x² - 6x - 8

a = -1 so the parabola opens DOWN

x = $\frac{-b}{2a}$ = $\frac{-(-6)}{2(-1)}$ = $\frac{6}{-2}$ = -3

y = -(-3)² - 6(-3) - 8 = -9 + 18 - 8 = 1

vertex (-3, 1) is in Quadrant 2 and is above the x-axis

This could NOT be the graph of the rain gauge.

The graph should contain the vertex, x-intercepts (-2, 0) and (-4, 0), and y-intercept (0, -8)

******************************************************************************************

3) y = x² - 2x + 3

a = 1 so the parabola opens UP

x = $\frac{-b}{2a}$ = $\frac{-(-2)}{2(1)}$ = $\frac{2}{2}$ = 1

y = (1)² - 2(1) + 3 = 1 - 2 + 3 = 2

vertex (1, 2) is in Quadrant 1 and is above the x-axis

This could NOT be the graph of the rain gauge.

The graph should contain the vertex, y-intercept (0, 3), and its mirror image (2, 3). There are no x-intercepts

******************************************************************************************

4) y = x² + 4x + 4

a = 1 so the parabola opens UP

x = $\frac{-b}{2a}$ = $\frac{-4}{2(1)}$ = -2

y = (-2)² + 4(-2) + 4 = 4 - 8 + 4 = 0

vertex (-2, 0) is in Quadrant 2 and is on the x-axis

This COULD be the graph of the rain gauge.

The graph should contain the vertex, y-intercept (0, 4), and its mirror image (-4, 4). The x-intercept is the vertex.

Compared to the other four graphs, this is most likely the equation for the rain gauge!

******************************************************************************************

5) y = 3x² + 21x + 30

a = +3 so the parabola opens UP

x = $\frac{-b}{2a}$ = $\frac{-21}{2(3)}$ = $-\frac{7}{2}$

y = 3 $(-\frac{7}{2})^{2}$ + 21 $(-\frac{7}{2} )$ + 30 = $-\frac{27}{4}$

vertex $(-\frac{7}{2}$ , $-\frac{27}{4})$ is in Quadrant 3 and is below the x-axis

This COULD be the graph of the rain gauge.

The graph should contain the vertex, x-intercepts (-2, 0) and (-5, 0), and y-intercept (0, 30)

At the city museum, child admission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.80 . On Sunday, four times as many adult tickets as child

Ket [755]

5.70c + 9.80a = 1526.60
a = 4c

5.70c + 9.80(4c) = 1526.60
5.70c + 39.20c = 1526.60
44.90c = 1526.60
c = 1526.60/44.90
c = 34 <=== child tickets sold

a = 4c
a = 4(34)
a = 136 ...adult tickets sold
