Make x the subject means you need to solve for x
y = ax^2 solve for x
divide both side by a
y/a = ax^2/a
simplify
y/a = x^2
so
x = square root (y/a)
The next number in the sequence is 8
Diameter of small pizza = diameter of large pizza divided by 2 = 9 inches
x = y divided by 2
x = 9 inches
Answer: 48 points gained in those 3 days.
Subtract 220 with 48, then add 96. Last step would be subtracting 220 with the amount they have now in those 3 days to find how much points the stock market gained in those 3 days.
Subtract 220-48.It‘ll be 172.
Add 172 with 96. 172+96=268.
Subtract 268 with how much points the stock market had 3 days ago. 268-220. So it would be about 48 points gained.
