I think the answer is 1/23
Please tell me if I'm wrong.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply plug in 2 for a, then 6 for b and substitute
(2+6)2
Then do order of operations to simplify PEMDAS
First what's inside the parenthesis
(8)2
Then multiply
16.
Answer:
4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by subtracting the 6 from the 14, to get the leftover space on the wall, 8 feet. We then divide that by two, since if the painting is centered there will be two equally-sized spaces on either side of it. This means that X = 4 feet.
We have to find the parameter a so that (-1,2) is part of the function f(x) = ax²+4.
To check if a point is part of a function, we can replace the values of x and y = f(x) with the coordinates of the point and then, if the equation stays true, then the point is part of the function.
So for (x,y) = (-1,2) to be part of the function y = f(x), this equation has to stands true:

Then, the function would have to be f(x) = -2x² + 4.
We can check with a graph as:
Answer: a = -2
