Answer:
The answer in the simplest form would be 28/9 or 3 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Very simple you would divide the 56 and the 18 by 2 and you get 28/9.
or you could change it to a improper fraction in that case it would be 3 1/9
Let's say that B makes $100.
Then A makes $75.
So, your question then becomes 100 is what percent of 75?
This can be solved by setting up the proportion 100 / 75 = x / 100
75x = 10000
x = 133.3
So, B's income is 33.3% more than A's income.

Answer:
The equation of the quadratic graph is f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3 (second option)
Step-by-step explanation:
Focus: F=(3,1)=(xf, yf)→xf=3, yf=1
Directrix: y=5 (horizontal line), then the axis of the parabola is vertical, and the equation has the form:
f(x)=[1 / (4p)] (x-h)^2+k
where Vertex: V=(h,k)
The directix y=5 must intercept the axis of the parabola at the point (3,5), and the vertex is the midpoint between this point and the focus:
Vertex is the midpoint between (3,5) and (3,1):
h=(3+3)/2→h=6/2→h=3
k=(5+1)/2→k=6/2→k=3
Vertex: V=(h,k)→V=(3,3)
p=yf-k→p=1-3→p=-2
Replacing the values in the equation:
f(x)= [ 1 / (4(-2)) ] (x-3)^2 + 3
f(x)=[ 1 / (-8) ] (x-3)^2 + 3
f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3
Answer:
177 ft below sea level.
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial altitude of the hot air balloon = 282 below sea level
Rate of rise of balloon = 10 ft / second
Time = 12 seconds
Total rise in 12 seconds = Rate of rise of balloon
Time
= 120 ft
Now, we will have to subtract to find the new altitude.
New altitude = 282 - 120 = 162 ft
Now, it is given that balloon Captain lowers the balloon 15 ft.
To find the final altitude, we will have to add it to the previous altitude.
Therefore, the final altitude = 162 + 15 = <em>177 ft below sea level </em>
