Answer:

d = 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

combined speed = 7 + 9 = 16 mph

s = d/t

d = st

d = 16 miles/hr × 0.25 hr

d = 4 miles

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with vertex (1,1) and y-intercept (0,-3). Write your answer in this form (x of 1 , y of 1)
Vikki [24]
Remember that the vertex form of a parabola or quadratic equation is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the "vertex" which is the maximum or minimum point of the parabola  (and a is half the acceleration of the of the function, but that is maybe too much :P)

In this case we are given that the vertex is (1,1) so we have:

y=a(x-1)^2+1, and then we are told that there is a point (0,-3) so we can say:

-3=a(0-1)^2+1

-3=a+1

-4=a so our complete equation in vertex form is:

y=-4(x-1)^2+1

Now you wish to know where the x-intercepts are.  x-intercepts are when the graph touches the x-axis, ie, when y=0 so

0=-4(x-1)^2+1  add 4(x-1)^2 to both sides

4(x-1)^2=1  divide both sides by 4

(x-1)^2=1/4  take the square root of both sides

x-1=±√(1/4)  which is equal to

x-1=±1/2  add 1 to both sides

x=1±1/2

So x=0.5 and 1.5, thus the x-intercept points are:

(0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0)  or if you like fractions:

(1/2, 0) and (3/2, 0) :P

How much bigger is the Sum of first 50 even numbers than the sum of first 50 odd numbers?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum Even numbers

n = 50

d = 2

a1 = 2

The last number is

an = a1 + (n-1)d

an = 2 + (50 - 1)*2

an = 2 + 49 * 2

an = 2 + 98

an = 100

Sum of the even numbers

Sum = (a1 + a50)*n/ 2

Sum = (2 + 100)*50/2

sum = 102 * 25

sum = 2550

Sum of the first 50 odd numbers

a1 = 1

n = 50

d = 2

l = ?

Find l

l = a1 + (n - 1)*2

l = 1 + 49*2

l = 99

Sum

Sum = (1 + 99)*50/2

Sum = 2500

The difference and answer is 2550 - 2500  = 50
