<u><em>Matteo is 4 inches taller than Nico. </em></u>

<u><em>Sarah is wrong because she didn't consider the conversion rate from ft to inches. </em></u>

  • We are told that;

Height of Matteo = 4 feet 3 inches

Height of Nico = 3 feet 11 inches.

  • Now to find the difference in height, we need to first convert both of their heights to inches.

From conversion tables, we know that;

12 inches = 1 ft.

  • Thus, their height in inches is;

Height of Matteo = (4 × 12) + 3 = 51 inches

Height of Nico = (3 × 12) + 11 = 47 inches

Thus, difference in height = 51 - 47 = 4 inches.

Thus, Matteo is 4 inches taller than Nico.

  • Looking at the method of Sarah, she didn't consider that the unit she was working with. If it was just units and tens subtraction, that method would have worked but she ought to have added 12 to 3 since it is from ft to inches instead of 10 to 3 as in the case of regular numbers without units.

Consider h(x)=x^2+8+15. identify its vertex and y-intercept.
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Vertex: (-4, -1)

Y-intercept: (0, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quaratic function, h(x) = x² + 8x + 15:

In order to determine the vertex of the given function, we can use the formula, [x = \frac{-b}{2a}, h(\frac{-b}{2a})].

<h3>Use the equation:  [x = \frac{-b}{2a}, h(\frac{-b}{2a})]</h3>

In the quadratic function, h(x) = x² + 8x + 15, where:

a = 1, b = 8, and c = 15:

Substitute the given values for <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> into the equation to solve for the x-coordinate of the vertex.

x = \frac{-b}{2a}

x = \frac{-8}{2(1)}

x = -4

Subsitute the value of the x-coordinate into the given function to solve for the <u>y-coordinate of the vertex</u>:

h(x) = x² + 8x + 15

h(-4) = (-4)² + 8(-4) + 15

h(-4) = 16 - 32 + 15

h(-4) = -1

Therefore, the vertex of the given function is (-4, -1).

<h3>Solve for the Y-intercept:</h3>

The <u>y-intercept</u> is the point on the graph where it crosse the y-axis. In order to find the y-intercept of the function, set x = 0, and solve for the y-intercept:

h(x) = x² + 8x + 15

h(0) = (0)² + 8(0) + 15

h(0) = 0 + 0 + 15

h(0) = 15

Therefore, the y-intercept of the quadratic function is (0, 15).

Which angles are linear pairs? Check all that apply.
AlexFokin [52]
Linear pairs are when 2 lines intersect, and are adjacent angles.

The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair<span> of angles must add up to 180 degrees.
