8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the age of the youngest child

Let x + 1 = the age of the middle child

Let x + 2 = the age of the oldest child

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 39

3x + 3 = 39

3x = 36

x = 12 years

Which equation does the graph of the systems of equations solve? It's a quadratic graph opening down and quadratic graph opening
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

D. -x^{2} -2x+3=2x^{2} -8x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The graph of the system of equations is a 'quadratic graph opening down and a quadratic graph opening up'.

This means that one quadratic equation will have leading co-efficient positive and other will have leading co-efficient negative.

So, we get that options A and B are discarded.

Further it is provided that the graph intersect at ( 0,3 ) and ( 2,-5 ).

This means that the pair of points must satisfy the given system of equations.

So, according to the options:

C. -x^{2} -2x+3=2x^{2} -8x-3

Putting x = 0, gives 3 = -3, which is not possible.

So, option C is dicarded.

D. -x^{2} -2x+3=2x^{2} -8x+3

Putting x = 0 gives 3 = 3 and x = 2 gives -5 = -5.

Hence, the graph of the given system solves the equation -x^{2} -2x+3=2x^{2} -8x+3.

Triss [41]

Answer:

The mean is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the sum of a set of numbers divided by the number of numbers in a set. In this case, you add up all the numbers to get 56, and divide by 7 to get 8.

Which of the following are exact numbers?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation with the help of discrete variables and continuous variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to tell that which of the following can be an exact number.

This can be done with the approach of discrete and continuous variables.

Discrete variables are the variables that are countable and cannot be expressed in decimal form. They are point estimated.

Continuous variable are the variable that are estimated with the help of an interval. Their values can be expressed with the help of a decimal expansion. They are not countable.

a) Mass of a paper clip, Surface are of dime, Inches in a mile, Ounces in pound, microseconds in a week

Since all mass, area, weight(ounces), time, length(inches) are continuous variable, they can be estimated with the help of an interval. Thus, they can have exact number but not always.

b) Number of pages in a worksheet

Since this is a discrete quantity and it is countable. Thus, it will always have a point estimation and are exact numbers always.
