Answer:
y = 1/2 x²
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficient of the first term in a quadratic, in our case here, x², will tell us how the graph stretches. This is akin to the slope within the linear graph. Similar to the slope, the smaller the coefficient value, or value of slope m, the shallower the angle.
When discussing quadratics, the larger the coefficient of our x² term, the steeper, and skinnier the graph. If we want to look for a graph that is wider than y = 2x², then we need to find a graph with a coefficient that is less than 2.
Our only option then is
y = 1/2 x²
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
The street sign is composed of two rectangles and 1 triangle.
Painted area = area of triangle + area of rectangle 1 + area of square
✔️Area of triangle = ½bh
b = 15 in.
h = 8 in.
Area of triangle = ½*15*8 = 60 in.²
✔️Area of rectangle 1 = L*W
L = 50 in.
W = 6 in.
Area = 50*6 = 300 in.²
✔️Area of Square = s²
s = 15 in.
Area = 15² = 255 in.²
✅Painted area = 60 + 300 + 225 = 585 in.²
Answer:
D- 18
Step-by-step explanation:
We simply need to divide the amount of wood she has by amount of wood that she needs for each statue.
She uses a 3 foot piece of wood and she needs 1/6 foot of wood for each statue.
Therefore, the number of statues she can make is:

She can make 18 statues.
Answer: 119 billion
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright, so the rate of change is the same thing as the slope, so we can find this by using the slope formula (which I took a picture of because it's super messy to type it out like this)
Now that we know the slope formula, we need to find the x values and the y values to plug into the equation. We'll say that the years are our x values and the money spent (in billions) are our y values. Now that we've set up an axis, we can create points! Our points would be (2000, 1243) and (2005, 1838)
Now we can plug our points into our equations! On the top of our equation, we'll put (1838-1243), and on the bottom we'll put (2005-2000). When we simplify that, we end up with 595/5, which simplifies to 119. Now we know that the rate of change for the credit cards was 119 billion!
