Step-by-step explanation:

11 7/8 can be written as (11 + 7/8). If we find (11+7/8)², we know that √(11+7/8)² = (11+7/8), so we can compare (11+7/8)² with 129 and see which is bigger.

(11+7/8)² = (11+7/8) * (11+7/8)

= 121 + 7/8 * 11 + 7/8 * 11 + (7/8)²

= 121 + 77/8 + 77/8 + (7/8)²

77/8 is greater than 9 (8*9 = 72) but less than 10 (8*10=80). Rounding down to 7, we have

121 + 7 + 7 + (7/8)²

= 135 + (7/8)²

Even when rounding down, (11+7/8)² is greater than 129. Therefore,

129 < (11+7/8)²

square root both sides

√129 < (11+7/8)

We can apply a similar process for the next one.

(3+5/6)² = (3+5/6) * (3+5/6)

= 9 + 5/6 * 3 + 5/6 * 3 + (5/6)²

= 9 + 15/6 + 15/6 + (5/6)²

15/6 is less than 3 (6*3 = 18) but greater than 2 (6*2 = 12). Rounding down to 2, we have

9 + 2 + 2 + (5/6)²

= 13 + (5/6)² > 10

Even when rounding down, (3+5/6)² is greater than 10

(3+5/6)² > 10

square root both sides

(3+5/6) > √10

Line JK passes through points J(–3, 11) and K(1, –3). What is the equation of line JK in standard form?

nikitadnepr [17]

You can start with the form
∆y(x -x1) -∆x(y -y1) = 0
Here, we have
∆y = 11-(-3) = 14
∆x = -3-1 = -4
and we can choose (x1, y1) = (1, -3). This gives
14(x -1) -(-4)(y -(-3)) = 0
14x +4y -2 = 0
All these terms have a common factor of 2 that we can remove. Adding 1 to the result puts it in standard form:

7x +2y = 1

Determine the vertex of the function f(x) = 3(x − 2)2 + 1.

anastassius [24]

The vertex point of the function f(x) = 3(x - 2)² + 1 is (2 , 1) ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

Any quadratic function represented graphically by a parabola

1. If the coefficient of x² is positive, then the parabola open upward

and its vertex is a minimum point

2. If the coefficient of x² is negative, then the parabola open

downward and its vertex is a maximum point

3. The standard form of the quadratic function is: f(x) = ax² + bx + c

where a, b , c are constants

4. The vertex form of the quadratic function is: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k,

where h , k are the coordinates of its vertex point

∵ The function f(x) = 3(x - 2)² + 1

∵ The f(x) = a(x - h)² + k in the vertex form

∴ a = 3 , h = 2 , k = 1

∵ h , k are the coordinates of the vertex point

∴ The coordinates of the vertex point are (2 , 1)

The vertex point of the function f(x) = 3(x - 2)² + 1 is (2 , 1)

Which fraction is equivalent to 50%? (in simplest fraction form) A) 1 2 B) 1 4 C) 2 5 D) 4 5

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1/2 is equivalent to 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to convert a fraction to a percentage you divide the numerator (Top number of a fraction) by the denominator (Bottom number of a fraction), multiply by 100, and add a percentage sign.

So lets try that with our first answer option A) 1/2:

1 divided by 2 = 0.5

0.5 x 100 = 50

50%

So we know that 1/2 is equivalent to 50%
