Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

These are similar triangles.

BC:AC = BD:AD

6:5 is the ratio.

Then, simply multiply:

4.2 x 5/6 = 3.5

So, x = 3.5!

Using the given information write the equation of parabolas:

lana [24]

The general form of the equation we need to find is (x - h)^2 = 4p(y- k).

The center is the distance between the directrix and focus.

So, center (h, k) = (3, 3/2) .

P = distance from center to the focus and it just so happens to be 1.5.

We now plug everything into the formula given above.

(x - 3)^2 = 4(1.5)(y - 3/2)

(x - 3)^2 = 6(y - 3/2)

Done!

How do i resolve this?

EleoNora [17]

Solve for y for both equations then equate and solve:

5x + 9y = 160
9y = 160 - 5x
y = 160/9 - 5/9x

9x + 8y = 202
8y = 202 - 9x
y = 202/8 - 9/8x

160/9 - 5/9x = 202/8 - 9/8x (common denominator is 72)

1280/72 - 40/72x = 1818/72 - 81/72x
1818/72 - 1280/72 = 81/72x - 40/72x
538/72 = 41/72x
538 = 41x
538/41 = x
x = 13 5/41

Aisha bought 15 apples and oranges for $9. 0. Each orange costs $0. 50, and each apple costs $0. 65. Let x represent the number

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

x + y = 15

0.5x + 0.65y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of oranges

y = number of apples

total of apples and oranges is 15 so x + y = 15

total cost of apples and oranges is $9 so 0.5x + 0.65y = 9

Calculation

y = 15 - x

0.5x + 0.65(15-x) = 9

0.5x - 0.65x + 9.75 = 9

-0.15x = - 0.75

x = 5

y = 15 - x = 15 - 5 = 10

Choose the expression that represents a quadratic expression. 9x − 2 5x2 9x − 1 −2x3 8x2 − 7x 1 x4 − 12x3 8x2 − 7x 1

NikAS [45]

5x² + 9x - 1 is the expression that represents a quadratic expression.

What is quadratic expression?

Quadratic expression is an expression with the variable with the highest power of 2.
The word quadratic is derived from the word quad which means square.
The expression should have the power of two and not higher or lower.

A quadratic expression is of the form

ax² + bx +c = 0 where a ≠ 0

The give options are-

9x - 2

5x² + 9x - 1

-2x³ + 8x² - 7x +1

$x^{4} - 12 x^{3} + 8x^{2} - 7x +1$

From the given options, the only expression which is quadratic is

5x² + 9x - 1

wChoose the expression that represents a quadratic expression. 9x − 2 5x2 9x − 1 −2x3 8x2 − 7x 1 x4 − 12x3 8x2 −here a =5, b=9 and c=-1

Therefore, 5x² + 9x - 1 is the expression that represents a quadratic expression.
