We are asked to determine the value of a such that the function f(x) = ax^2 + 5 is fit for the point given (-1,2). In this case, we substitute 2 to y and -1 to x. The result is then 2 = a*(-1)^2 + 5 ; 2 = a + 5; a is then equal to -3
To solve for the given problem above:
Let x be the number of boxes left after 3 hours
3 * ½ X = 24
3/2 X = 24
X = 24 * 2/3
X = 16
The correct answer is 16.
Answer:
53°
Step-by-step explanation:
17² = 18² + 20² - 2(18)(20) cos Q
289 = 324 + 400 - 720 cos Q
289 = 724 - 720 cos Q
-435 = -720 cos Q
0.6042 = cos Q

Q = 52.83
Answer:
2yrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Amount of interest earned = $40
Principal = $400
Interest rate = 5%
Unknown:
Time taken for the money to be in bank = ?
Solution:
The formula for interest is given as:
I =
Where I is the interest
P is the principal
R is the rate
T is the time
So;
100I = PRT
T =
=
= 2yrs
Answer: 3.11637
Explanation: The hundred thousandths place is in the fifth place after the decimal. To avoid remembering this, you can simply note that the first place after the decimal is the tenths. You simply keep progressing as you would in whole numbers.
For example 10 becomes 100 when a zero is added. This zero is always added right beside the first zero and indicates the hundreds place.
Furthermore, the general rule for rounding is if the number after the preferred rounding place is 4 or less, the number remains the same. 5 or more means it goes up by one digit.
