Answer:

5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points ( 2,-2) and (9,3)

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( 3- -2)/( 9-2)

= ( 3+2)/(9-3)

= 5/7

Which of the following equations is of a parabola with a vertex at (1, 2)?

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Option 2nd is correct that is $y=(x-1)^2+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the vertices of a parabola

General equation of parabola is:

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

Here, (h,k) is vertex of the parabola

Here, h=1 and k=2 and a=1

On substituting the values in the general equation of the parabola we get:

$y=1(x-1)^2+2$

$y=(x-1)^2+2$

Therefore, option 2nd is correct.

3. The width of a rectangle is 4 feet less than the length. The area is

mina [271]

Answer:

L = 6, w = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width of rectangle

Let L = length of rectangle

w = L - 4

Area of rectangle = Lw

L (L - 4) = 12

L^2 - 4L = 12

L^2 - 4L - 12 = 0

(L - 6)(L + 2) = 0

L - 6 = 0

L = 6 (the other option doesn't work because dimensions can't be negative)

w = L - 4

w = 6 - 4

w = 2

Double check

A = Lw

A = 6 x 2

A = 12

It matches so we are right.

Timmy and Ben shared a bag of marbles. Timmy had 3/4 of what Ben had. When Ben gave 36 marbles to Timmy, Ben had 1/3 of what Tim

Svetllana [295]

Let $t$ be the inital number of Timmy's marbles, and $b$ be the inital number of Ben's marbles.

At the beginning, "Timmy had 3/4 of what Ben had", which means

$t = \cfrac{3}{4}b \iff 4t=3b$

(I wrote the equation in an equivalent form to avoid denominators)

Then, Ben gives 36 marbles to Timmy. So, now Ben has $b-36$ marbles, and Timmy has $t+36$ marbles. The new ratio is 1 to 3 in Timmy's favour, so we have

$b-36 = \cfrac{t+36}{3} \iff 3(b-36) = t+36 \iff 3b-108 = t+36$

(same as before)

So, we have the following linear system:

$\begin{cases}4t=3b\\3b-108=t+36\end{cases}$

From the first equation we know that $3b=4t$ , so the second equation becomes

$4t-108=t+36 \iff 3t = 144 \iff t = \cfrac{144}{3} = 48$

Now that we know the value for $t$ , we can simply plug it into the first equation to get

$3b = 4\times 48 = 192 \iff b=\cfrac{192}{3} = 64$

The angles of a rectangle are equal. always sometimes never

sveta [45]

The angles of a rectangle are equal ALWAYS.

The rectangle has 4 angles, each angle is a right angle or has a measurement of 90°. Total of all interior angle is 360°.

Just like a rectangle, a square has an angle that is always equal because its angles are all right angles.
