-1.5 ------ f(x) = 3(-1.5) - 5
= -4.5 -5
= 9.5
2 -------- f(x) = 3(2) - 5
= 6 -5
= 1
4 -------- f(x) = 3(4) - 5
= 12 - 5
= 7
(9.5, 1 , 7)
6a=54 so a=54/6, a=9
b-a=14, and using a found above...
b-9=14
b=23, so a=9 and b=23 so
ab=9(23)=207
Answer: OPTION D.
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola and "a" is the coefficient of the squared in the parabola's equation.
We know that the vertex of this parabola is at (5,5) and we also know that when the x-value is 6, the y-value is -1.
Then we can substitute values into
and solve for "a". This is:
1. 24%
2. 13%
3. 60%
1. Since 6/25 is .24, 24% of the class was absent
2. He spent 3 hours in total.. Divide is by 24 because there are 24 hours in a day. 3/24 is 0.125 for 13% of the day
3. He ran 3 of the 5 miles, so 3/5 = 0.6.. meaning 60%. The time doesn’t matter
The answer for the question is 21
