Out of the x times Alonso spins the spinner, it lands on red 12 times.

Out of 1000 times, he predicts it will land on red 240 times.

With this information we can set up a proportion to solve for x:

x/12 = 1000/240

Cross multiply

(12)(1000) = (x)(240)

12000 = 240x

Solve for x

x = 12000/240 = 50

The answer is 50 times.

What’s the length of the new fence?
natulia [17]
We apply the Pythagorean theorem twice and obtain:
 12 ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + (15-d) ^ 2
 9 ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + d ^ 2
 We observe that it is a system of two equations with two unknowns whose solutions are:
 (x, d) = (-36/5, 27/5)
 (x, d) = (36/5, 27/5)
 We ignore the negative solution, therefore, the solution is:
 (x, d) = (36/5, 27/5)
 Answer:
 
The length of the new fence is:
 
x = 36/5 meters

2 consecutive even numbers add to equal 178. What is the smallest of the 2 numbers?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The smallest number is 88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the first consecutive even number

x+2 --->the second consecutive even number

we know that

The linear equation that represent this problem is given by

x+(x+2)=178

solve for x

2x=178-2\\2x=176\\x=88

so

x=88\\x+2=88+2=90

therefore

The smallest number is 88

Find the equation, f(x) = a(x-h)2 + k, for a parabola that passes through the point (1,-7) and has (2,- 4) as its vertex. What i
Anettt [7]
The coordinates of the vertex are (h,k)  so we can write:-
 f(x) = a(x -2)^2 - 4
now when f(x) = -7 x = 1 so:-

-7 = a(1-2)^2 - 4
-7 = a - 4
a = -3

so the vertex formula is 
f(x) = -3(x - 2)^2 - 4

standard form:-

f(x) = -3(x^2 - 4x + 4)  - 4
       = -3x^2 + 12x - 16
