Answer:

60 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the structure of the wording: "miles per hour"

The word "per" means for each. There is you clue.

Each is, one of and one of is unit measurement

So the controlling element in this question is that you need to convert the 3 hours into 1 hour.

Using ratio properties

180

miles

hour

We need to 'force' the left hand side into the same form as the right. That is: we need to convert the denominator into 1 and see what happens to the numerator.

⇒

180

⇒

So the unit rate of speed is

miles

per

−−−

hour

A line passes through (10,-1) and has a slope of -1/2 whats the equation of the line

8090 [49]

Answer:

Y=-1/2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

-The slope is -1/2 so you just plug it in where the slope would go with an x in front

-all you need now is your y-intercept which can be found by plugging in the provided info to your basic form y=mx+b

-You can take the provided point at (10,-1) and work out what the intercepts is

-1=-1/2(10)-b

-1=-5-b

4=b

The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (3,2) and the point (4,6) is on the parabola. What is the equation of the parab

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=4(x-3)^2+2\ \bold{vertex\ form}}\\\boxed{y=4x^2-24x+38\ \bold{standard\ form}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola:

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

(h, k) - vertex

We have the vertex at (3, 2) → h = 3 and k = 2.

Substitute:

$y=a(x-3)^2+2$

The point (4, 6) is on athe parabola. Put the coordinates of this point to the equation:

$6=a(4-3)^2+2$ subtract 2 from both sides

$6-2=a(1)^2+2-2$

$4=a\to a=4$

Finally:

$y=4(x-3)^2+2$ vertex form

use (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

$y=4(x^2-6x+9)+2$ use the distributive property

$y=4x^2-24x+36+2$

$y=4x^2-24x+38$ standard form
