Answer:
B) 14
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 + 1/3 = x (don't worry, it's not algebra, I'm just using x as an example)
The common denominator is 15, so you multiply 5 by 3 = 15 and 1 by 3 = 3,
3/15 = 1/5
Then, multiply 3 by 5 = 15 and then 1 by 5 = 5, so it's
5/15 = 1/3
5/15 + 3/15 = 8/15 and then multiply 15 by 2 = 30 (number of students) and because you multiplied 15 by 2, you also multiply 8 by 2 = 16
So it is now 16/30, so you do 30-16 which is 14.
14 students chose Station M (doesn't sound like a good station).
Whoo! Let's go! (I'll stop being cringy now).

We can still have some fun with answer choice <span>x = 1, x = 3:
An associated quadratic function would have the form y = a(x-1)(x-3). Just supposing that the point (2, 5) were on the graph, then this </span>y = a(x-1)(x-3) would become 5 = a(2-1)(2-3), or 5 = a(1)(-1), or 5 = -a, or a = -5.
Thus, the equation of the parabola would be y = -5(x-1)(x-3), or, in the more usual form, y = -5(x^2 - 4x + 3).
Complete the square to find the vertex:
Steal y = x^2 - 4x + 3 for a moment and complete the square:
x^2 - 4x + 3 = x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 + 3, or (x-2)^2 - 1
Subbing this back into y = -5(x^2 - 4x + 3), we get
y = -5 [ (x-2)^2 -1 ], or y = -5(x-2)^2 + 5. This shows that the vertex is at (2, 5), that the graph opens downward, and the graph is symm. about the line x = 2.
Having fun yet?
Answer:
yes it does
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to start by subtracting 5 from both sides to get 2/3x=-8/3 then cross multiply to get whole numbers which is 6=-24x then your gonna want to isolate the variable so divide both sides by -24 to get 6/-24=x then you can simplify to x=-1/4
