The coach recorded how fast his runners ran 1 mile. Emmett ran a mile in 9.73 minutes, Kate ran a mile in 10.87 minutes, and Rubin ran a mile in 8.46 minutes. How many more minutes did Emmett run than Robin?

a. 1.37 minutes

b. 1.27 minutes

c. 2.27 minutes

d. 1.27 seconds

Answer:

1.27 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Emmett ran a mile in 9.73 minutes

Kate ran a mile in 10.87 minutes

Rubin ran a mile in 8.46 minutes.

How many more minutes did Emmett run than Robin?

This is calculated as:

Number of minutes Emmett ran - Number of minutes Rubin ran

= 9.73 minute - 8.46 minutes

= 1.27 minutes

The diagram below shows the graph of the quadratic function f (x) = ax² + 8x + c. calculate the value for each of the following.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The y- intercept is at (0, 6) ⇒ c = 6

The x- coordinate of the vertex is at the midpoint of the zeros, that is

m = $\frac{-3-1}{2}$ = $\frac{-4}{2}$ = - 2

Since the zeros are x = - 3 and x = - 1 then the factors are (x + 3), (x + 1) and

f(x) = a(x + 3)(x + 1) = a(x² + 4x + 3)

Comparing with f(x) = ax² + 8x + 6 ⇒ a = 2

Thus

f(x) = 2x² + 8x + 6

Substitute m = - 2 into the equation for value of n

n = 2(- 2)² + 8(- 2) + 6 = 8 - 16 + 6 = - 2

Hence

c = 6, m = - 2, a = 2, n = - 2
