Answer:

a\cdot b\cdot c=\frac{15}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex is the minimum or maximum point of parabola

Vertex of parabola is (h,k)

Therefore, from given graph (-3,-2) is the lowest point.

Vertex of parabola is at (-3,-2).

Standard equation of parabola

y-k=a(x-h)^2

Substitute the values

y-(-2)=a(x-(-3))^2=a(x+3)^2

y+2=a(x+3)^2

(-1,0) lies on the parabola.

Therefore, it satisfied the equation of parabola.

0+2=a(-1+3)^2=4a

a=2/4=1/2

Now, using the value of a

y+2=1/2(x+3)^2=1/2(x^2+6x+9)

y+2=\frac{1}{2}x^2+3x+\frac{9}{2}

y=\frac{1}{2}x^2+3x+\frac{9}{2}-2

y=\frac{1}{2}x^2+3x+\frac{9-4}{2}

y=\frac{1}{2}x^2+3x+\frac{5}{2}

By comparing with

y=ax^2+bx+c

We get

a=\frac{1}{2}, b=3, c=5/2

a\cdot b\cdot c=\frac{1}{2}\times 3\times \frac{5}{2}

a\cdot b\cdot c=\frac{15}{4}

Peter is writing a number in scientific notation.The number is grater that ten million and less that one hundred million.Which e
OLga [1]

Answer:

M  =  a \times 10^7  where 1 < a ≤ 9

The EXPONENT USED BY PETER is 7 in all the possible cases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the needed number is M.

Also, given:

The needed number is GREATER than 10 Million.

⇒ M  > 10 Million

⇒ M > 10,000,000

⇒ M > 1 \times 10^7  ...... (1)

The needed number is SMALLER than 100 Million.

⇒ M  <  100 Million

⇒ M < 100,000,000

⇒ M  <  1 \times 10^8  ...... (2)

Comparing (1) and (2) we can see that M can have more than 7 zeroes after 1 but LESS than 8 zeroes after 1.

So, the possible values of M can be:

M  =  a \times 10^7  where 1 < a ≤ 9

So, the EXPONENT USED BY PETER is 7 in all the possible cases.

A plumber and his assistant work together to replace the pipes in an old house. The plumber charges $30 an hour for his own labo
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The plumber worked 50 hours, and his assistant worked 25 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a plumber and his assistant work together to replace the pipes in an old house, and the plumber charges $ 30 an hour for his own labor and $ 20 an hour for his assistant's labor, and the plumber works twice as long as his assistant on this job, and the labor charge on the final bill is $ 2000, to determine how long did the plumber and his assistant work on this job the following calculation must be performed:

40 x 30 + 20 x 20 = 1200 + 400 = 1600

50 x 30 + 25 x 20 = 1500 + 500 = 2000

Therefore, the plumber worked 50 hours, and his assistant worked 25 hours.

Ir AB - 4x + 9. BC = 5x + 2, and AC - 56. then find the value for x, AB, BC.
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

A B - 4 x + 9 B C = 5 x + 2 = A = 9 x/ B + 2/ B − 9 C

A C − 56 = A = 9 x /B + 2/ B − 9 C

x=A=9x/B+2x/B-9C
