Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a horizontal parabola in the standard form:

(h, k) - vertex
if a > 0, then open right
if a < 0, then open left
We have the vertrex (-1, -3) and the parabola is open left (a < 0).
Therefore the equation of a given parabola could be:

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
For this exercise it is important to remember the following:
The constant of proportionality, which is represented as "k", describe the constant ratio of two quantities that are proportional (the independent and dependent variables).
In this case we know that the independent quantity represents the total members of the band and the dependent quantity represents the woodwind members of the band.
Since the band consists of 3 woodwinds for every 7 members of the band, we can conclude that the constant of proportionality for this relationship is:

Answer:
2.8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = rate * time
If the west-bound train travels at a rate of 80 mph for t hours, then the distance it travels is 80t.
If the east-bound train travels at a rate of 90 mph for t hours, then the distance it travels is 90t.
The distance between the trains after t hours is 476; therefore, the distance of the west-bound train plus the distance of the east-bound train equals the total distance between them, 476:
80t + 90t = 476 and
170t = 476 so
t = 2.8 hours
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the coefficients of each term and evaluating for h = - 4
- 4 | 1 - 7 - 7 20
↓ - 4 44 - 148
---------------------------
1 - 11 37 - 128 ← remainder
Quotient = x² - 11x + 37 , R - 128
Hey there!
Let's solve this equation.
5x+3x-4=10
add the x's
8x-4=10
add 4 to both sides
8x=10+4
8x=14
divide both sides by 8
x=14/8
Reduce the fraction;
x=7/4 (improper fraction)
x=1+3/4 (mixed number)
Hence, the equation has 1 solution.
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any questions!
