Answer:

37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of polio vaccination given=x

Let the number of measles vaccination given=y

Dr. Potter gave a total of 60 vaccinations

x+y=60

Since each polio vaccination consists of 4 doses, and each measles vaccination consists of 2 doses. A total of 184 doses was given out.

4x+2y=184

To find the values of x and y, we solve the two equations simultaneously.

x+y=60             (1)

4x+2y=184        (2)

From (1), x=60-y

Substitute x=60-y into equation 2.

4x+2y=184

4(60-y)+2y=184

240-4y+2y=184

240-184=4y-2y

56=2y

Divode both sides by 2

y=23

Recall earlier that x=60-y

x=60-23=37

Dr Potter gave 37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.

suppose a parabola has an axis of symmetry at x=-2, a maximum height of 8, passes through the point (-6, 2). Wrire the equation
Virty [35]

Answer:

y = -3/8(x + 2)^2 + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

vertex form is

y = a(x - b)^2 + c     where a is a constant and (b,c) is the vertex.

The maximum is at (-2, 8)  because x 8 = height and x =-2 is equn. of symmetry

So here we have

y = a(x - (-2))^2 + 8

y = a(x + 2)^2 + 8

Now at the point (-6, 2):

2 = a(-6+2)^2 + 8

2 = 16a + 8

16a = -6

1 = -3/8.

So our equation is y = 3/8(x + 2)^2 + 8

Set the two equal to each other and solve for x

-2x+1 = -2x²+1
-2x= -2x²
x=x²
x²-x=0
x(x-1) =0, so x is either 0 or 1

two solutions, namely (0,1) and (1,1)

What are the factors of the equation 24x^2=9-30x?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

3(4x - 1)(2x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation into standard form

Subtract 9 - 30x from both sides

24x² + 30x - 9 = 0 ← in standard form

Take out 3 as a common factor

3(8x² + 10x - 3) = 0 ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x term

product = 8 × - 3 = - 24, sum = 10

The factors are - 2 and + 12

Use these factors to replace the x- term, that is

8x² - 2x + 12x - 3 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(4x - 1) + 3(4x - 1) ← take out the common factor (4x - 1)

(4x - 1)(2x + 3)

24x² + 30x - 9 = 3(4x - 1)(2x + 3) ← in factored form
