Answer:

x-intercept: x = 8/3

y-intercept: y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept

$y = 8 - 3x$

$0 = 8 - 3x$

$3x = 8$

$x = \frac{8}{3}$

••••

y-intercept

$y = 8 - 3x$

$y = 8 - 3 \times 0$

$y = 8$

A parabola is represented by the equation y2 = 5x. which equation represents the directrix?

ivann1987 [24]

The value of the directrix is -5/4.

According to the statement

we have given that the equation of parabola is y2 = 5x. And we have to find that the which equation represents the directrix.

We know that the general equation of parabola is

(y - k)2 = 4a(x - h) -(1)

and given parabola equation is

y2 = 5x. -(2)

After comparing the both equations we get k=0 and h=0

And the formula to find the directrix is

x = h - a

Substitute the values of h and a in it then

x = 0-5/4

x = -5/4.

Here the directrix is -5/4.

So, The value of the directrix is -5/4.

Solve the quadratic equation x2+8x−30=0 by completing the square.

diamong [38]

Answer:

$\bold{x=-4\pm\sqrt{46}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\\\x^2+8x-30=0\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2\cdot x\cdot 4+4^2}-4^2-30=0\\\\{}\qquad(x+4)^2\,-\,16-30=0\\\\{}\qquad\ \ (x+4)^2=46\\\\ {}\qquad\ \ x+4=\pm\sqrt{46}\\\\ {}\qquad\ \ x=-4\pm\sqrt{46}$

Tarik rides a stationary bike and Janet rides her bike on a trail. Their data is shown

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Part a. The graph does not model a proportional relationship.

Part b. The values in table model a proportional relation.

3.5 minutes per mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a.

The graph shown in the question representing Janet's data is not a straight line although it passes through the origin.

That is why the rate of change of distance with time is not constant.

Therefore, the graph does not model a proportional relationship.

Part b.

If we plot the data in the table using distance in miles along the y-axis and time in minutes along the x-axis, then we will get a straight line passing through the origin.

So, the values in the table model a proportional relation.

Now, Tarik's unit rate in minutes per miles will be $\frac{7-0}{2-0} =3.5$ minutes per mile. (Answer)
