Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

last year 1/5 of the class played sports, so s = (1/5) c

the next year, s increased by 5, c increased by 10 and the fraction changed to 1/4, so for the next year (s+5) = (1/4)(c+10)

To solve this we can substitute s = (1/5)c from the first equation into the second, so

((1/5)c + 5)=(1/4)(c+10), simplify both sides

(1/5)c + 5 = (1/4)c + 10/4, simplify 10/4 to 5/2

(1/5)c + 5 = (1/4)c + 5/2, multiply both sides by 20 to eliminate fractions (least common multiple of 2, 4 and 5)

4c + 100 = 5c + 50, subtract 4c, subtract 50 from both sides

50 = c, number of students in class last year was 50, this year is 10 more, so this year is 60

On a coordinate plane, two parabolas open up. The solid-line parabola, labeled f of x, goes through (negative 2, 4), has a verte
34kurt

Answer:

y = (x+4)^{2}+6

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabola with vertex at point (h,k) is described by the following model:

y - k = C\cdot (x-h)^{2}

The equation which satisfies the conditions described above:

y - 6 = (x+4)^{2}

y = (x+4)^{2}+6

The two points are evaluated herein:

x = -6

y =(-6+4)^{2}+6

y = (-2)^{2}+6

y = 4 + 6

y = 10

x = -2

y = (-2+4)^{2}+6

y = 2^{2} + 6

y = 4 + 6

y = 10

The equation of the translated function is y = (x+4)^{2}+6.
