Sure this question comes with a set of answer choices.
Anyhow, I can help you by determining one equation that can be solved to determine the value of a in the equation.
Since, the two zeros are - 4 and 2, you know that the equation can be factored as the product of (x + 4) and ( x - 2) times a constant. This is, the equation has the form:
y = a(x + 4)(x - 2)
Now, since the point (6,10) belongs to the parabola, you can replace those coordintates to get:
10 = a (6 + 4) (6 - 2)
Therefore, any of these equivalent equations can be solved to determine the value of a:
10 = a 6 + 40) (6 -2)
10 = a (10)(4)
10 = 40a
Answer:
He owned Cat for 5 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Owned dog for 9 years.
Dog owned year is one year less than twice as long as he owned a cat.
Lets assume the years that cat has been owned be "x".
Now, finding the number years that Cat hes been owned.
As given, Dog owned year is one year less than twice as long as he owned a cat.
∴ using equation to find the Cat´s owned years.
⇒ 
adding 1 on both side.
⇒ 
dividing both side by 2
⇒
∴x= 
Hence, Cat has been owned for 5 years.
31/3: 2/3= 5
5X6=30
All you have to do is divide 31/3 by 2/3 and it equals 5 then 5X6=30
3 hours is longer than 175 minutes. An hour is 60 minutes long, so just multiply that by 3 and compare your answer to 175.
60 x 3 = 180
180 > 175
Therefore, 3 hours is longer than 175 minutes.
Hope this helps!
