Answer:

<em>The student completed 13 courses worth 3 credits</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>System of Equations</u>

Let's assign the following variables:

x = number of courses worth 3 credits

y = number of courses worth 4 credits

Some student completed 18 courses thus:

x + y = 18      [1]

The student earned a total of 59 credits:

3x + 4y = 59       [2]

From [1]:

y = 18 - x

Substituting in [2]:

3x + 4(18 - x) = 59

Operating:

3x + 72 - 4x = 59

Simplifying:

-x = 59 - 72 = -13

x = 13

The student completed 13 courses worth 3 credits

Answer: 300.

Step-by-step explanation: 225/(No denominator) = 75/100.

225 doesn't go in 75. So, 75/100 divided by 5 = 15/20.

I want to find what number you multiply from 15/20 to get 225/(No

denominator). So, I divide 225 by 15. = 15, so multiply 15 x 15 = 225, and

the denominator, 20 x 15= 300.

(Sorry if you don't understand, I don't really know how to explain things.)

But here's your answer!

What is the domain and range of the function f(x) = x^2 -4x-5?
Tems11 [23]
F(x) = x²-4x-5, quadratic function,  
Domain (the values if x) is all real numbers.

To find range we should draw a graph or to write an equation in vertex form.
f(x) = x²-4x+4-4-5
f(x) = (x-2)²-9
Point (-2,-9) is the vertex of the parabola, and it is a minimum because a parabola has positive sign in front of x², so it is looking up.  Minimum value of y =-9
Range(the values of y) is [-9, ∞)
