the 2nd expression is the answer
Answer:
a = 2, b = - 3, c = - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand f(x) = a(x + b)² + c and compare coefficients of like terms, that is
a(x + b)² + c ← expand (x + b)² using FOIL
= a(x² + 2bx + b²) + c ← distribute parenthesis by a
= ax² + 2abx + ab² + c
Compare like terms with f(x) = 2x² - 12x + 10
Compare coefficients x² term
a = 2
Compare coefficients of x- term
2ab = - 12, substitute a = 2
2(2)b = - 12
4b = - 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )
b = - 3
Compare constant term
ab² + c = 10 , substitute a = 2, b = - 3
2(- 3)² + c = 10
18 + c = 10 ( subtract 18 from both sides )
c = - 8
Then a = 2, b = - 3, c = - 8
The expression to represent this would be (m-18)/k.
We first subtract the 18 beads she used in her mother's bracelet from her beginning number, m. We then divide our result by k, the number of bracelets she made for her friends.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can create a right triangle out of this information and then use right triangle trig to solve.
We are given the height of the triangle as the height of the tower which is 150m.
We are given the angle of inclination as the degree the tower makes with the ground which is 72.
From the angle of 72 degrees, which is also known as the reference angle, we have the side across from it (the height) and we are looking for the side adjacent to it (how far from the base of the tower the keys will land). Side opposite the reference angle over side adjacent to the reference angle is the tangent ratio:
and, solving for x,

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode to solve this. Divide 150 by the tan(72) and find that
x = 48.7 m
