So,
We are trying to figure out when Grandpa Lopez's age was twice that of Dad.
Let x represent the number of years before/after when G. Lopez's age was twice that of Dad.
66 + x = 2(37 + x)
Distribute.
66 + x = 74 + 2x
Subtract x from both sides.
66 = 74 + x
Subtract 74 from both sides.
-8 = x
So 8 years ago, G. Lopez was twice as old as Dad. Let's check that.
66 - 8 = 58
37 = 8 = 29
29 * 2 = 58
58 = 58
It checks.
Answer:
The answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + c
m = 1/2
(2,-3)
y = (1/2)x + c
-3 = (1/2)(2) + c
c = -4
y = (1/2)x - 4
Answer:
21 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
The radius is half of the diameter. The diameter (as shown) is 42 inches. Divide that by two to get 21 in.
For x intercepts, plug in 0 for y.
0 = (x^2) - 2x - 35
*factoring* = (x-7)(x+5)
x intercepts = 7,-5
As for the vertex, you can use the equation -b/2a for the x-coordinate of the vertex
so,
x = -b/2a = -(-2)/2 = 1
then just find the y value by plugging it back in to the equation.
y = ((1)^2) - 2(1) - 35
= -36
so, vertex is at (1,-36)
