Answer:

6 + 7x = 27

x = 3cm

Step-by-step explanation:

so the question lets us know 3 things:

1) Sarah has a 27 ft pipe

2) she cuts 6 ft off

3) she cuts remaining pipe into 7 equal sections

what we don't know from the question is how big each of those 7 sections were. To form the equation we do this.

Since we know Sarah has 27 ft of pipe that would be our answer of the equation.

Sarah also removed 6 ft and the rest of the pipe she cut up into 7 small sections of equal length. since we don't know the length of the 7 smaller sections we will use the variable X to represent the length. this means that 6ft + 7x (X is the length of the pipes, and we multiply by 7 since there are 7 of them) must equal Sarah's total length of 27ft, therefore meaning our education would be

6 + 7x = 27

to solve for how long each pipe was, we need to solve for X by rearranging the equation as shown bellow.

7x = 27 - 6

7x = 21

x =  \frac{21}{7}

x = 3cm

the vertex of this parabola is at (5,5). when the x-value is 6, the y-value is -1. what is the coefficient of the squared in the
zlopas [31]

Answer: OPTION D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

y= a(x - h)^2 + k

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola and "a" is the coefficient of the squared in the parabola's equation.

We know that the vertex of this parabola is at (5,5) and we also know that when the x-value is 6, the y-value is -1.

Then  we can substitute values into  f (x) = a(x - h)^2 + k and solve for "a". This is:

-1= a(6- 5)^2 + 5\\\\-1=a+5\\\\-1-5=a\\\\a=-6
