As a small step to save the environment, Luna came up with an idea for her sweet shop. In exchange for five eclaire boxes, that

she gets, she decided to give an eclaire box for free. A group of kids from the locality ate seventy-seven eclaire boxes that week and they collected the boxes to give to Luna and get back eclaires boxes.
How many eclaires boxes do you think they can buy from Luna using the seventy-seven claire boxes?​

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can infer from the information given that:

5 eclaires boxes = 1 free eclaires box.

Therefore, to get the number of eclaires boxes that the kids will get if they bring 77 eclaires boxes, we have to divide 77 by 5 and this will be:

= 77 / 5

= 15.4

= 15

The group of kids will receive 15 free boxes

RS = 3x - 16, ST = 4x - 8, RT = 60
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

RS = 20

ST = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

R____S____T

RS + ST = RT

3x - 16 + 4x - 8 = 60

3x + 4x - 16 - 8 = 60

7x - 24 = 60

    +24    +24

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

7x = 84

/7     /7

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

x = 12

Let's use what we got for x to find the length of ST and RS

ST = 4x - 8

= 4(12) - 8

= 48 - 8

ST = 40

RS = 3x - 16

= 3(12) - 16

= 36 - 16

RS = 20

so, RS = 20, ST = 40, and RT = 60

what is an equation of a parabola with a with the given vertex and focus vertex: (-2, 5) focus: (-2, 6)
SpyIntel [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

As the vertex (−2,5) and focus (−2,6) share same abscissa i.e. −2, parabola has axis of symmetry as x=−2 or x+2=0

Hence, equation of parabola is of the type (y−k)=a(x−h)2, where (h,k) is vertex. Its focus then is (h,k+14a)

As vertex is given to be (−2,5), the equation of parabola is

y−5=a(x+2)2

as vertex is (−2,5) and parabola passes through vertex.

and its focus is (−2,5+14a)

Therefore 5+14a=6 or 14a=1 i.e. a=14

and equation of parabola is y−5=14(x+2)2

or 4y−20=(x+2)2=x2+4x+4

or 4y=x2+4x+24

Answer:

After 1.5 second of throwing the ball will reach a maximum height of 44 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height in feet of a ball after t seconds of throwing is given by the function  

h = - 16t² + 48t + 8 .......... (1)

Now, condition for maximum height is  

\frac{dh}{dt} = 0 = - 32t + 48 {Differentiating equation (1) with respect to t}

⇒ t = \frac{48}{32} = 1.5 seconds.

Now, from equation (1) we get

h(max) = - 16(1.5)² + 48(1.5) + 8 = 44 ft.

Therefore, after 1.5 seconds of throwing the ball will reach a maximum height of 44 ft. (Answer)
