Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use substitution to solve this problem. Since we are given y=-x²+4x+5 and y=x+1, we can set them equal to each other.

-x²+4x+5=x+1        [subtract both sides by x]

-x²+3x+5=1            [subtract both sides by 1]

-x²+3x+4=0

Now that we have the equation above, we can factor it to find the roots.

-x²+3x+4=0           [factor out -1]

-1(x²-3x-4)=0         [factor x²-3x-4]

-1(x+1)(x-4)=0

This tells us that x=-1 and x=4.

We can narrow down our answer to A, but let's plug in those values to be sure it is correct.

-(-1)²+4(-1)+5=(-1)+1      [exponent]

-1+4(-1)+5=-1+1              [multiply]

-1-4+5=-1+1                    [add and subtract from left to right]

0=0  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-(4)²+4(4)+5=(4)+1      [exponent]

-16+4(4)+5=4+1           [multiply]

-16+16+5=4+1              [add and subtract from left to right]

5=5

Therefore, we can conclude that A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think substitution would be the easiest since you already have one of the variables solved for.

y=-x^2+4x+5\\y=x+1\\x+1=-x^2+4x+5\\x^2-3x-4=0\\(x-4)(x+1)=0\\x-4=0\\x=4\\x+1=0\\x=-1

(You can just set the equations equal to each other since they both equal y).

Now, to get the points, plug in x = 4 and x = -1 into one of the equations (I'm going to plug them into y = x+1 because that one is much simpler)

y(4)=4+1\\y(4)=5\\y(-1)=-1+1\\y(-1)=0

So, your final points are:

(4,5) and (-1,0)

<h3>Answer:  0.34</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

A = 0.61 is given to us

Pumpkin B travels 0.28 of a mile further than A does, so,

B = A+0.28 = 0.61+0.28 = 0.89

Pumpkin B travels 0.89 of a mile.

---------------------

Pumpkin C travels 0.06 of a mile more than B does, which means,

C = B + 0.06

C = 0.89 + 0.06

C = 0.95

Pumpkin C travels 0.95 of a mile.

---------------------

The last thing to do is to subtract the values of C and A

C - A = 0.95 - 0.61 = 0.34

Pumpkin C travels 0.34 of a mile further compared to pumpkin A.

---------------------

Side note: if you want to convert from miles to feet, then multiply by 5280.

For instance, 0.61 miles = 0.61*5280 = 3,220.8 feet.
