Total ducks = 8
blue winged ducks =2
fraction of ducks having blue wings =2/8 =1/4
Answer:
x = 3 ± 
or
x = 3 +
, x = 3 - 
Step-by-step explanation:
given f(x) = 2(x - 3)^2 - 8, find when f(x) = 40
So, we plug in 40 for f(x) in the 1st equation and solve for x. (Aim to got x on its own)
40 = 2 (x - 3)^2 - 8
+ 8 + 8
-----------------------------
48 = 2 (x - 3)^2
/2 /2
-----------------------------
24 = (x - 3)^2
square root both sides
--------------------
= x - 3
x = 3 ± 
Y and x are directly proportional, as stated by hypothesis. Let's use the rule of three to find y when x = 8.
x=5 --> y=12
x=8 --> y=?
? = (8*12)/5 = 96/5 = 19.2
So y directly varies with x, and y=12 when x = 5, then y=19.2 when x=8.
Hope this Helps! :D
Parentheses first. 1-4= -3. 4-3=1. 1-2=-1.
The answer is -1.
