Answer:one number is eight more than twice another and their sum is 20. what are their number? one number = x = 2y+8 another number = y so, (2y+8)+ y=20 simplify 3y+8=20 3y=20-8 3y=12 y=4, checking the answer gives x=2(4)+8=16 so, y = 4 and x = 16 4+16=20

Read the caption! Thanks, if you can helps thank you
Kamila [148]

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle, any 2 side lengths of the triangle must be greatee than the 3rd side.

Given a triangle with side lengths 11, 23 and x,

we have:

  • 11 + 23 > x,
  • 11 + x > 23, and
  • 23 + x > 11.

Therefore 34 > x and x > 12. => 12 < x < 34.

Find the vertex of the parabola formed by the following quadratic function: y = 3x^2 – 6x + 2
storchak [24]
Vertex form is y=a(x-h)^2+k, so we can rearrange to that form...

y=3x^2-6x+2  subtract 2 from both sides

y-2=3x^2-6x  divide both sides by 3

(y-2)/3=x^2-2x, halve the linear coefficient, square it, add it to both sides...in this case:  (-2/2)^2=1 so

(y-2)/3+1=x^2-2x+1  now the right side is a perfect square

(y-2+3)/3=(x-1)^2

(y+1)/3=(x-1)^2  multiply both sides by 3

y+1=3(x-1)^2  subtract 1 from both sides

y=3(x-1)^2-1  so the vertex is:

(1, -1)

...

Now if you'd like you can commit to memory the vertex point for any parabola so you don't have to do the calculations like what we did above.  The vertex of any quadratic (parabola), ax^2+bx+c is:

x= -b/(2a),   y= (4ac-b^2)/(4a)

Then you will always be able to do a quick calculation of the vertex :)

Find the average speed in km/hr of 700m travelled in 5 minutes.
elena55 [62]
Ok...
700 m = 0.7 km
5 minutes = 5/60 hours
Then, speed is:
S= 0.7 km / (5/60) hours = 8.4 km/hola
Good luck!
