Since both trains in total weigh 360 tons and train A weighs more than train be, it means that train B is the rest of the weight when you subtract train A from the total amount. Difference means subtraction so just solve this: 360-272 to get train B and you already know that train A is 272 tons. Please mark branliest!

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with vertex (1,1) and y-intercept (0,-3). Write your answer in this form (x of 1 , y of 1)
Vikki [24]
Remember that the vertex form of a parabola or quadratic equation is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the "vertex" which is the maximum or minimum point of the parabola  (and a is half the acceleration of the of the function, but that is maybe too much :P)

In this case we are given that the vertex is (1,1) so we have:

y=a(x-1)^2+1, and then we are told that there is a point (0,-3) so we can say:

-3=a(0-1)^2+1

-3=a+1

-4=a so our complete equation in vertex form is:

y=-4(x-1)^2+1

Now you wish to know where the x-intercepts are.  x-intercepts are when the graph touches the x-axis, ie, when y=0 so

0=-4(x-1)^2+1  add 4(x-1)^2 to both sides

4(x-1)^2=1  divide both sides by 4

(x-1)^2=1/4  take the square root of both sides

x-1=±√(1/4)  which is equal to

x-1=±1/2  add 1 to both sides

x=1±1/2

So x=0.5 and 1.5, thus the x-intercept points are:

(0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0)  or if you like fractions:

(1/2, 0) and (3/2, 0) :P

What’s the slope of the line that passes through 5,10 and 7,12
Marrrta [24]

Slope of the line passes through (5,10) and (7,12) is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The two points are (5,10) and (7,12).

To find the slope passing through the given points.

Formula

The slope of the line passing through (x_{1} ,y_{1}) and (x_{2} ,y_{2}) is \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }

Now, putting x_{1} =5,y_{1}=10, x_{2}=7, y_{2} =12 we get,

Slope = \frac{12-10}{7-5} = \frac{2}{2} = 1

Hence,

Slope of the line passes through (5,10) and (7,12) is 1.
