Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

So the equation is 25x = 275. In order for us to find out what x is we need to get rid of 25 that is next to x, so we are going to have to divide 25x by 25. What you do to one side you do to the other so the equation will look like this:

25x/ 25 = 275/ 25

25x/25 = x

275/25 = 11

so x = 11

Write an equation of a parabola that passes through (3,-30) and has x-intercepts of -2 and 18. Then find the average rate of cha

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{32}{5}\cdot x -\frac{72}{5}$ . The average rate of change of the parabola is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that a parabola is represented by a quadratic function, which can be formed by knowing three different points. A quadratic function is standard form is represented by:

$y = a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c$

Where:

$x$ - Independent variable, dimensionless.

$y$ - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

$a$ , $b$ , $c$ - Coefficients, dimensionless.

If we know that $(3, -30)$ , $(-2, 0)$ and $(18, 0)$ are part of the parabola, the following linear system of equations is formed:

$9\cdot a +3\cdot b + c = -30$

$4\cdot a -2\cdot b +c = 0$

$324\cdot a +18\cdot b + c = 0$

This system can be solved both by algebraic means (substitution, elimination, equalization, determinant) and by numerical methods. The solution of the linear system is:

$a = \frac{2}{5}$ , $b = -\frac{32}{5}$ , $c = -\frac{72}{5}$ .
