Input of 3.....output of -6.......(3 * -2 = -6)
input of -2....output of 4........(-2 * -2 = 4)
input of 0....output of 0.........(0 * -2 = 0)
function rule : multiply the input by -2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The question is</em></u>
Which equation should she use?
we have the formula

Solve for k
That means ----> isolate the variable k
Multiply by 2 both sides

Divide by x^2 both sides

Rewrite

Answer:
The maximum possible number of mosquitoes is 25 millions
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
m(x) -----> the number of mosquitoes in Minneapolis, Minnesota (in millions of mosquitoes)
x ----> the rainfall in centimeters
we have

This is a quadratic equation (vertical parabola) open downward
The vertex is the maximum
we know that
The maximum possible number of mosquitoes is equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex
Find out the coordinate of the vertex
The general equation of a vertical parabola in vertex form is equal to

where
a is a coefficient
(h,k) is the vertex
so
In this problem
a=-1 (open downward)
(h,k)=(5,25)
The y-coordinate is 25
therefore
The maximum possible number of mosquitoes is 25 millions
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Write all numerators above the leas common denominator 10
Calculate the sum -2+7=5
5/10
reduce the fraction by dividing both sides by 5
Answer:
x = 6
y = 2
Explanation:
To solve the system using elimination, we need to multiply the second equation by -1, so the second equation is equivalent to:
x - 9y = -12
-1 (x - 9y) = -1 (-12)
-x + 9y = 12
Then, we can sum this equation and the first equation. So:
5x - 9y = 12
-x + 9y = 12
4x + 0 = 24
So, we can solve for x, as:
4x = 24
4x/4 = 24/4
x = 6
Then, we can replace x by 6 on the first equation and solve for y, so:
5x - 9y = 12
5(6) - 9y = 12
30 - 9y = 12
30 - 9y - 30 = 12 - 30
-9y = -18
-9y/(-9) = -18/(-9)
y = 2
Therefore, the solution of the system is x = 6 and y = 2
