slope = "rise over run" (the change in y coordinates divided by the change in x coordinates) =

(8--7)/(3-7) = 15/-4 = -15/4

Tam multiplied 2.13 and 4.62, as shown. But he forgot to put a decimal point in his

yuradex [85]

The decimal gives after the 9. There are four places behind the decimal between the two numbers being multiplied so there have to be 4 places behind the decimal in your answer.

Answer:

Part 1) "a" value is $2$

Part 2) The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

Part 3) The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

Part 4) The vertex is a minimum

Part 5) The quadratic equation in standard form is $y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

$y=a(x-h)^{2}+k$

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

if a > 0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

if a < 0 then the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The equation of the axis of symmetry of a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

$x=h$

In this problem we have

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$ -----> this is the equation in vertex form of a vertical parabola

The value of $a=2$

a>0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

$(h,k)=(1,8)$

The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

The equation of a vertical parabola in standard form is equal to

$y=ax^{2}+bx+c$

Convert vertex form in standard form

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$

$y=2(x^{2}-2x+1)+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+2+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

One small tank takes twice as long to fill a tank as a larger pipe does. If it takes the two pipes 40 minutes to fill the tank w

Gala2k [10]

Um... it'll take each pipe 80 mins, bcz if together they take that long, then to find the pipes time separately, you just multiply it by two to show it doing the work the other pipe did as well. Is that what you wanted??
