Hey there!
"9 pounds more than" means that you'll be adding 9 to the expression.
"half the weight w" means that you'll be calculating half of w each time you solve the equation, or 0.5w.
Your entire expression will be 0.5w + 9.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
22 successes out of a group of 40 means 22/40 were good. Now, simplify 22/40. Both can be divided by 2.
22/2 = 11
40/2 = 20
Now you have 11/20. Put this in decimal form and you have 0.55
9514 1404 393
Answer:
y = -(x -3)^2 +2
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex form of the equation for a parabola is ...
y = a(x -h)^2 +k
where the vertex is (h, k) and the value 'a' is a vertical scale factor.
The value of 'a' can be found by looking at the y-value of points ±1 either side of the vertex relative to the vertex. Here, the vertex y-value is +2 at x=3, and either side goes down 1 unit (to y=1) for 1 unit to the right or left. So, a = -1.
Using the values we've read from the graph for the vertex (h, k) = (3, 2) and the scale factor a = -1, we can write the equation as ...
y = -(x -3)^2 +2
Let's use the furthest left point on the triangle to figure out the translation.
Blue triangle = (-5,1)
Black triangle = (-3,-1)
To get from -5 to -3 we moved the triangle 2 units to the right, which means that we added 2.
To get from 1 to -1, we moved the triangle 2 units down, which means we subtracted 2.
Rule: {2, -2}
Hope this helps!
