Answer:

B. 2:1, for every two yellow fish there is one orange fish

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have 6 yellow fish and 3 orange fish.

You can divide both these values by 3 to get:

2 yellow fish: 1 orange fish

Therefore, the simplified version of the ratio is 2:1

In context this means for every 2 yellow fish there is 1 orange fish.

The answer is then B.

Given the function f(x) = 2|x + 6| -4, for what values of x is f(x) = 6?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

f(x) = 2|x + 6|-4

6=2|x + 6|-4

10= 2|x + 6|

divide by 2

5=|x + 6|

x = 5-6

x = -1

so x should be -1

Diagram below shows the curve of a quadratic function
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

q = -8, k = 2.

r = -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - p)^2 + q

This is the vertex form of a quadratic where the vertex is at the point (p, q).

Now the x intercepts are at -6 and 2 and the curve is symmetrical about the line x = p.

The value of p is the midpoint of  -6 and 2 which is (-6+2) / 2 = -2.

So we have:

f(x) = 1/2(x - -2)^2 + q

f(x) = 1/2(x + 2)^2 + q

Now the graph passes through the point (2, 0) , where it intersects the x axis, therefore, substituting x = 2 and f(x) = 0:

0 = 1/2(2 + 2)^2 + q

0 = 1/2*16 + q

0 = 8 + q

q = -8.

Now convert this to standard form to find k:

f(x) = 1/2(x + 2)^2 - 8

f(x) = 1/2(x^2 + 4x + 4) - 8

f(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x + 2 - 8

f(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x - 6

So k = 2.

The  r  is the y coordinate when x = 0.

so r = 1/2(0+2)^2 - 8

=  -6.
