If I understand your question correctly, you want to know how many pounds of vegetables the zoo feeds the animals a month if its a 30 day month?
In that case it would be 23 pounds times 30 days which is 690 pounds of vegetables. SO the zoo feeds the animals 690 pounds of vegetables to the animals each month.
Is that what your asking for?
A space cushion is a certain amount of distance you keep between u and the car in front of u that allows u to easily maneuver in any condition. The benefit would be : if another driver makes a mistake, ur space cushion gives u time to react.
v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
<h3>
<u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica
Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa
Given that,
Together, they have 32 stuffed animals
Therefore,
v + m = 32 --------- eqn 1
Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted animals as her friend Mariposa
Therefore,
Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)
v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2
Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
5 + 2m + m = 32
5 + 3m = 32
3m = 32 - 5
3m = 27
<h3>m = 9</h3>
Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2
v = 5 + 2(9)
v = 5 + 18
<h3>v = 23</h3>
Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
Because the parabola opens down and the vertex is at (0, 5), we conclude that the correct option is:
y = -(1/8)*x² + 5.
<h3>
Which is the equation of the parabola?</h3>
The relevant information is that we have the vertex at (0, 5), and that the parabola opens downwards.
Remember that the parabola only opens downwards if the leading coefficient is negative. Then we can discard the two middle options.
Now, because the parabola has the point (0, 5), we know that when we evaluate the parabola in x = 0, we should get y = 5.
Then the constant term must be 5.
So the correct option is the first one:
y = -(1/8)*x² + 5.
