Question 21
Let's complete the square
y = 3x^2 + 6x + 5
y-5 = 3x^2 + 6x
y - 5 = 3(x^2 + 2x)
y - 5 = 3(x^2 + 2x + 1 - 1)
y - 5 = 3(x^2+2x+1) - 3
y - 5 = 3(x+1)^2 - 3
y = 3(x+1)^2 - 3 + 5
y = 3(x+1)^2 + 2
Answer: Choice D
============================================
Question 22
Through trial and error you should find that choice D is the answer
Basically you plug in each of the given answer choices and see which results in a true statement.
For instance, with choice A we have
y < -4(x+1)^2 - 3
-7 < -4(0+1)^2 - 3
-7 < -7
which is false, so we eliminate choice A
Choice D is the answer because
y < -4(x+1)^2 - 3
-9 < -4(-2+1)^2 - 3
-9 < -7
which is true since -9 is to the left of -7 on the number line.

Question 25
Answer: Choice B
Explanation:
The quantity (x-4)^2 is always positive regardless of what you pick for x. This is because we are squaring the (x-4). Squaring a negative leads to a positive. Eg: (-4)^2 = 16
Adding on a positive to (x-4)^2 makes the result even more positive. Therefore (x-4)^2 + 1 > 0 is true for any real number x.
Visually this means all solutions of y > (x-4)^2 + 1 reside in quadrants 1 and 2, which are above the x axis.

Answer:
0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
1paise = 1/100rupee
so, 16 paise = 16/100
16/100= 0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute for y
x+3+4 = -6x
x+ 7 = -6x
7 = -7x
-1 = x
y = -1+3
y = 2
Answer:
Simplify them to the lowest.
What's the GCF( Greatest Common Factor). It's 8. So divide both sides by 8.
24/8 = 3
56/8 = 7
so it's
3 dogs to 7 cats
