Answer:

<h3>             f(x) = -¹/₄(x + 2)² - 6</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of an equation of the parabola:  

                                                         f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

vertex is (-2, -6)  so  h = -2,  k = -6

so:

      f(x) = a(x - (-2))² + (-6)

      f(x) = a(x + 2)² - 6

the parabola goes through the point (-4, -7) so for x=-4,  f(x)=-7

  -7 = a(-4+2)²  - 6

  -7 +6 = a(-2)² - 6 +6

 - 1  = a(4)

     a = -¹/₄

Therefore the equation of the parabola in vertex form:

                                 f(x) = -¹/₄(x + 2)² - 6

a phone company offers two monthly plans. plan A costs 13 plus an additional 0.16 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs 24 plus
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Let x represent number of calling minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

17 + .11x = 22 + .07x

      .04x = 5

         x = 5/.04  = 125 minutes, is the number of minutes the two plans cost the same

 17 + .11*125 = $30.75 is the cost when the two plans cost the same

Do the results support or contradict the common belief that the mean body temperature is 98.6degrees​F? A. The results contradic
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A. The results contradict the belief that the mean body temperature is 98.6 °F because both the mean and the median are less than 98.6 °F.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the temperature data were those in the table below.

You would have calculated that

  Mean = 97.9 °F

Median = 97.9 °F

These observations contradict the belief that the mean body temperature is 98.6 °F.

A 2017 study found the mean oral temperature of more than 35 000 British patients was 97.9 °F.

From the observation deck of a skyscraper, Micaela measures a 45° angle of
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

870

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle we are focusing on is 45 degrees and we are given vaules/variables for the opposite and adjecent of the triangle. This means we use tangent. The opposite of the triangle is 870 and the adjacent is the unknown (x). The equation then simplifies to

tan(45)=870/x

tan(45)x=870

870/tan(45)=x

if you plug this into the caluclator you get 870.

PLS HELP LAST THING I NEED FOR MATH THIS SCHOOL YEAR
katrin [286]

Answer:

B = 25 because 180-25-130 = 25 and all angles within triangle add to 180 degrees

a = 6  because the triangle is isosceles and we can see symmetry and draw this to prove on two opposite lines, therefore we can now find height easier.

c = 10. 876  because 130/2 = 65 degree and with new central height we can find Right Angle and using 6 x sin (65) = 5. 438 then we multiply by 2 to find c  

Then all you have to do is re-write and round to the nearest 10th and check the units and write degree sign where required.
