Answer:
-1/4x² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Path of sprinkler is modeled by the quadratic function :
w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 )
w(x) = height of the water, in meters, at position x
The height of ceiling as a constant or Coefficient = w(x)
Expanding w(x)
-1/4(x^2 -12 )
-1/4 * x² + 1/4 * 12
-1/4x² + 3
The height of ceiling is -1/4x² + 3

you'll get a decimal format, just multiply it times 100, to get the % format
Answer:
20) the answer is -43
21) the answer is 25
22)the answer is -5
Step-by-step explanation:
20) 
n=-7
p=-6
we have:

21) mp-(p-(m-n))
m= -1 n=-6 p=-10
-1*-10-(-10-(-1-(-6)))
10-(-10-(5))
10-(-15)
10+15=25
22) 
m=1 n=5
1- 
1- 2/2 -5
1-1-5 =-5
Answer:
0.5 pounds of butter.
Explanation
X pounds for 0.25 gallons.
0.5 gallon of cream - 1 pound of butter
0.25 gallons of cream - X pounds of butter
Applying cross multiplication:
0.5X = 0.25
X = 0.25 over 0.5 or 0.25/0.5
X = 0.5
Therefor, you could make 0.5 pounds of butter with 0.25 gallons of cream.
