Answer:

Giraffe = 10

Guinea Pig = 4

Tiger = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

G       GP      T                                  = 30

Use the parabola tool to graph the quadratic function y=-1? - 2.0 +8
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't have graphing facilities but can give you the vertex and 1 other point.

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = - \frac{b}{2a}

y = - x² - 2x + 8 ← is in standard form

with a = - 1 and b = - 2 , then

x = - \frac{-2}{-2} = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into the equation for corresponding value of y

y = - (- 1)² - 2(- 1) + 8 = - 1 + 2 + 8 = 9

vertex = (- 1, 9 )

To obtain another point substitute any value for x into the equation

x = 0 : y = 0 - 0 + 8 , then (0, 8 ) is a point on the graph

x = 2 : y = - (2)² - 2(2) + 8 = - 4 - 4 + 8 = 0  then (2, 0 ) is a point on the graph

Solve the equation 3p (3p - 8) - 8 = 9p ( p - 3 + 4
pentagon [3]

Answer:

p= \frac{-8}{33}

Explanation:

Given:

3p (3p - 8) - 8 = 9p ( p - 3 + 4)

To Find:

Value of p=?

Solution:

Before solving this equation,  we will use the method of BODMAS which states that we first solve the Bracket then Off then Division then Multiplier then addition and at last subtraction.  

Now we will solve the both right and left hand side of the equation  

3p (3p - 8) - 8 = 9p ( p - 3 + 4)

9p^2-24p-8=9p^2+9p

Gruoping the like terms we get,

9p^2-9p^2-24p-9p=8

After solving the both right hand and left hand side of the equation  

-33p=8

And we get the value of p as  

p= \frac{-8}{33}

How do you use the order of operations to simplify expressions with exponents
yaroslaw [1]
It could be PEMDAS.
That means solve by this order:
1). Parenthesis
2). Exponents
3). Multiplication
4). Division
5). Addition
6). Subtraction

To remember the order they say it like

What is the inverse and restricted domain of the equation 8x^2-3
kari74 [83]

Answer:  \bold{y=\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{2(x+3)}}{4},\qquad x\neq -3}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

y = 8x² - 3            (Restriction: none -  x is All Real Numbers)

The inverse is when you swap the x's and y's and then solve for y

x = 8y² - 3            <em>swapped the x and y</em>

x + 3 = 8y²           <em>added 3 to both sides</em>

\dfrac{x+3}{8}=y^2           <em>divided both sides by 8</em>

\sqrt{\dfrac{x+3}{8}}=\sqrt{y^2}           <em>square rooted both sides</em>

\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{x+3}{8}}=y           <em>simplified</em>

\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{x+3}{8}\bigg(\dfrac{2}{2}\bigg)}=y           rationalized the denominator

\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{2(x+3)}{16}}=y           <em>simplified</em>

\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{2(x+3)}}{4}=y           <em>simplified</em>

<u>Restriction:</u>

The radical <em>(inside the square root sign)</em> cannot be negative

→  2(x + 3) ≥ 0

      x + 3 ≥ 0         <em>divided both sides by 2</em>

      x       ≥ -3         <em>subtracted 3 from both sides</em>

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-20, 18) and (30, 14)?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

-\frac{2}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is the change in y over the change in x.

change in y is 14-18= -4

change in x is 30-(-20)= 50

so the answer is -4/50

we can factor out 2 from both equations to simplify the fraction. this gives us -2/25
