Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the value of a is less than 0, the graph of the parabola would be opening downwards. Because of this we can rule out option C. In a quadratic equation, c represents the y-intercept, and, in this case c is negative, meaning the y-intercept is less than 0. Only option B has a downward-opening curve and a y-intercept less than 0, so it is the answer.

Volume is defined as area of the base*the hight.

In this question the base is the traingles.

Area of a triangle is base*hight/2, so it 8*6/2= 24

Volume is 24*8(hight)=192

So the answer is 192cm^3

Ling lives 2 miles from school. It took him 15 minutes to bike from school to home. The first half of the distance he biked at a

alexdok [17]

A) time = distance/speed
For the first half of the trip, the time used was
.. (1 mi)/(12 mi/h) = (1/12) h = 5 minutes
Then the last half of the trip took 10 minutes, 1/6 hour.
.. speed = distance/time
.. = (1 mi)/(1/6 h) = 6 mi/h

The speed for the last half of the trip was 6 mph.

b) The average speed was
.. (2 mi)/(1/4 h) = 8 mi/h

Ling's average speed was 8 mph.
