Just divide as you normally would but 1 or 2 numbers at a time
I think it is a because it shows us the points that the students made. I also think it is d. But I think it is mainly a.

I think x should equal -2 or -3
If the discriminant b^2-4ac is 0, then you have TWO EQUAL, REAL ROOTS.
If you're given the x-intercepts, you can determine the factors of the polynomial as follows: Take -3, change the sign and write (x+3). Take 5, change the sign and write (x-5). Then the eq'n of the parabola is
f(x) = (x+3)(x-5) = x^2 - 2x -15, in which a=1, b = -2 and c= -15.
You can find the x-coordinate of the vertex, which is also the equation of the axis of symmetry, using
x= -b / (2a). Here, x = -(-2) / (2[1]), or x = 1
Find the y-coordinate by subbing 1 for x in the equation above:
y = (1)^2 - 2(1) - 15 = 1 - 2 - 15 = -16
The vertex is at (1, -16) and the equation of the axis of symm. is x = 1.
Answer:
80 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
She runs an 8 minute mile (which you can do by dividing 24/3), then how long will it take her to run 10 miles?
All you have to do from there is multiply 8x10, which gives you 80.
It'll take 80 minutes of 1:20 hours
