Answer: y = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})² + \frac{37}{12}, (-\frac{5}{6}, \frac{37}{12})

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First, you need to complete the square:

y   = -3x² - 5x + 1

<u> -1  </u>   <u>                -1  </u>

y - 1 = -3x² - 5x

y - 1 = -3(x² + \frac{5}{3}x

y - 1 + -3(\frac{25}{36}) = -3(x² + \frac{5}{3}x + \frac{25}{36})

           ↑                     ↓            ↑

                                  \frac{5}{3*2} = (\frac{5}{3*2})^{2}

y - 1 - \frac{25}{12} = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})²

y - \frac{12}{12} - \frac{25}{12} = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})²

y  - \frac{37}{12} = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})²

y = -3(x + \frac{5}{6})² + \frac{37}{12}

Now, it is in the form of y = a(x - h)² + k   <em>where (h, k) is the vertex</em>

Vertex = (-\frac{5}{6}, \frac{37}{12})

At Billy's school, 80 students come to school by bicycle or by car. Together, the vehicles they arrive to school in have 270 whe
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

x = number of bicycles = 35

y = number of cars = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of bicycles

y = number of cars

x + y = 80 (1)

2x + 4y = 270 (2)

From (1)

x = 80 - y

Substitute x = 80 - y into (2)

2x + 4y = 270 (2)

2(80 - y) + 4y = 270

160 - 2y + 4y = 270

- 2y + 4y = 270 - 160

2y = 110

y = 110/2

y = 55

Substitute y = 55 into (1)

x + y = 80 (1)

x + 55 = 80

x = 80 - 55

x = 35

x = number of bicycles = 35

y = number of cars = 55

tricky, as the sequence does not define the input values.

by we can assume that the corresponding input values are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... as it is usual for a sequence.

in that sense, b is the correct answer.
