1 answer:

4 0

The answer
y=−x^2−2x-24 is like the form of y=ax² +bx +c, to find the vertex we use the formula:
the x intercept according to the vertex is x=-b/2a, and the vertex V is a point such that V [-b/2a, f(-b/2a)]
the x intercept is x= -(-2) / 2(-1) =-1, and f(-1)= -1 +2 -24= -23

the vertex is V(-1, -23)

Alicia uses 3/4 gallon of paint to paint her room. Becca uses for 4/5 gallon more than Alicia to paint her room. How many gallon

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

23/10 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Alicia uses 3/4 gallon of paint to paint her room.

Alicia use = 3/4 gallon of paint

Becca uses for 4/5 gallon more than Alicia to paint her room.

Becca uses = Alicia (3/4 gallons ) + 4/5

Becca uses = $\frac{3}{4} + \frac{4}{5}$

Total paint used together = Aliccia used + Becca used

$\frac{3}{4}+\frac{3}{4} + \frac{4}{5}$

Add like fractions 3/4 + 3/4 becomes 6/4

$\frac{6}{4} + \frac{4}{5}$

Make the denominators same

$\frac{6*5}{4*5} + \frac{4*4}{5*4}$

$\frac{30}{20} + \frac{16}{20}$

$\frac{46}{20}$

Divide top and bottom by 2

$\frac{23}{10}$ gallons

Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s). Six times Jason

Helga [31]

Based on the given above, collection of books of Nathan and Jason can be translated into the following equations:
6J + 1/3N = 134
1/3 J + N = 31; J = Jasons and N=Nathan
Solving two equations with two unknowns simultaneously,
Jason = 21 books and Nathan = 24 books
