let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then proceed.

\stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{2}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{4}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{4}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\begin{array}{ccll} miles&hours\\ \cline{1-2} \frac{9}{2}&\frac{5}{4}\\[1em] x&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~ \frac{9}{2}~~}{x}=\cfrac{~~ \frac{5}{4}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{~~ \frac{9}{2}~~}{\frac{x}{1}}=\cfrac{5}{4}\implies \cfrac{9}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{5}{4} \\\\\\ \cfrac{9}{2x}=\cfrac{5}{4}\implies 36=10x\implies \cfrac{36}{10}=x\implies \cfrac{18}{5}=x\implies 3\frac{3}{5}=x

Multiply (3b​ 2​+ 4​b​ + 8)(-2​b​ 2​+ ​b​ + 10).
emmainna [20.7K]
Answer: -30b^2+76b+80
Explanation:
Multiply the second parenthesis by each term from the first parenthesis:
3b•2(-2•2+b+10)+4b•(-2b•2+b+10)+8(-2b•2+b+10)
Then distribute 3b•2 through the parenthesis
-24b^2+6b^2+60b+4b•(-2b•2+b+10)+8(-2b•2+b+10)
Then collect like terms
-30b^2+60b+40b-32b+8b+80
Collect like terms=
-30b+76b+80

The graph of a quadratic function meets the x axis where the x=3 and x=k. if the turning point of the function occurs where x=0.
liraira [26]

Step-by-step explanation:

The turning point of a quadratic function is equidistant from both x-intercepts (if they exist)

Since they do exist in this question, 3 + k = 2(0.5), 3 + k = 1, k = -2.
