Answer:
The parabola - quadratic.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is only graph / option in the picture but it is the correct one. Regardless, whether x is a positive or negative, the y coordinate is going to be a positive number as x^2 will produce a positive. So as -x^2 will also be positive.
What do you mean by this?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the miles Kenyon ran on tuesday
Let y be the miles Kenyon ran on thursday
Given,
Mon + Tues + Wed + Thu = 8mi

also given,

Now we have x + y = 5.2 as equation 1 and -x + y = 0.4 as equation 2
Using equation 1,

Substitute this equation into equation 2.

Substitute y = 2.8 into equation 1.

Therefore Kenyon ran 2.4 miles on tuesday, and ran 2.8 miles on thursday.
Answer: she baked 1225 muffins.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of muffins that she baked.
She gave 4/11 of the muffins to her friends. This means that the number of muffins that she gave to her friends is 4x/11. The number of muffins remaining is
x - 4x/7 = 3x/7
She gave 4/7 of the remainder to the guests at the event. This means that the number of muffins that she gave to the guests at the event is
4/7 × 3x/7 = 12x/49
The number of muffins remaining would be
3x/7 - 12x/49 = 9x/49
She had 225 muffins left. It means that
9x/49 = 225
9x = 225 × 49 = 11025
x = 11025/9
x = 1225
