Answer 1

Answer:

The temperature, in December is 47 °F

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data for the temperature are;

Month             [tex]{}[/tex]         Temp (°F)

April                   [tex]{}[/tex]          59

May               [tex]{}[/tex]               68

June             [tex]{}[/tex]                71

July                  [tex]{}[/tex]             78

August              [tex]{}[/tex]            74

Let x represent the month, and f(x) = y represent the temperature, we have;

y = a·x² + b·x + c

When x = 1, we have, f(1) = a·1² + b·1 + c = 59

f(1) = a + b + c = 59...(1)

When x = 2, we have, f(2) = a·2² + b·2 + c = 68

f(2) = 4·a + 2·b + c = 68...(2)

When x = 3, we have, f(3) = a·3² + b·3 + c = 71

f(3) = 9·a + 3·b + c = 71...(3)

When x = 4, we have, f(4) = a·4² + b·4 + c = 78

f(3) = 16·a + 4·b + c = 78...(4)

When x = 5, we have, f(5) = a·5² + b·5 + c = 74

f(3) = 25·a + 5·b + c = 74...(5)

Subtracting equation (3) from equation (5), we get;

25·a + 5·b + c - (9·a + 3·b + c) = 74 - 71

16·a + 2·b = 3...(6)

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2), we get;

4·a + 2·b + c - (a + b + c) = 68 - 59

3·a + b = 9...(7)

Multiply equation (7) by 2 and substract from equation (6) gives;

16·a + 2·b - 2 × (3·a + b) = 3 - 2 × 9

16·a + 2·b - 6·a - 2·b = 3 - 2 × 9

16·a - 6·a + 2·b  - 2·b = 3 - 2 × 9 = -15

10·a = -15

a = -15/10 = -1.5

a = -1.5

From, 3·a + b = 9, we have;

3 × (-1.5) + b = 9

b = 9 + 4.5 =13.5

b = 13.5

From, a + b + c = 59, we have;

-1.5 + 13.5 + c = 59

c = 59 - (-1.5 + 13.5) = 47

c = 47

The quadratic equation becomes, y = a·x² + b·x + c = -1.5·x² + 13.5·x + 47

f(x) = y = -1.5·x² + 13.5·x + 47

For December, we have, x = 9, and f(x) = -1.5×9² + 13.5×9 + 47 = 47

The temperature, in December = 47 °F

What is  simplification?

Simplify simply means to make it simple. In mathematics, simply or simplification is reducing the expression/fraction/problem in a simpler form. It makes the problem easy with calculations and solving.

here, we have,

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that:

m + f = 15 ---> 3m + 3f = 45

3m + 5f = 51

now, we have.

3m + 3f = 45

3m + 5f = 51

-------------------

-2f = -6

f = 3

so, we get,

m + f = 15

m = 15 - 3

m = 12

So the correct answer is 12.

Hence, The solution is, 12 multiple-choice questions are on the test.

Perimeter is the sum of lengths of all outer sides of the shape. Since the rectangle has two pairs of parallel lines of the same length... It is safe to assume that the unmarked side length is 10 ft (just like it's parallel counterpart)

Answers

1. ABCD is shifted some units down, and then some othe units left.

2. The figure is just moved, not reflected, not diluted. So the distances are preserved

3. ABCD is translated to OLMN mean that AB has been translated to OL, so length of LO=OL=AB= 6 units

The length of LO is as the length of AB which is 6 units.

What is a quadrilateral?

Any closed figure made by 4 line segments joined end to end in series is called a quadrilateral.

According to the given information, the quadrilateral ABCD is translated down and left to form the quadrilateral OLMN.

As the quadrilateral is just shifted first down and then left but not changed in the dimensions thus, the dimensions of the new quadrilateral OLMN will also be the same as ABCD.

length of LO=OL=AB= 6 units

Would be the correct one or in other words going up and down the 2nd one would be the correct table that represents a linear function. If you were to graph it then you could see that its going into a straight line and straight lines are linear.

The second table at the bottom represents a function because the slope for consecutive pairs of values is the same as 2, all through. The answer is: {(2, 7), (4, 9), (6, 11), (8, 13)}.

How to Identify a Table that Represents a Linear FunctionA table that represents a linear function will have the same slope across all pairs of values.Change in y / change in x will remain the same between consecutive pairs of values.

The constant of proportionality of the given data is 0.57.

What is constant of proportionality?

The constant of proportionality is the ratio of two proportional values at a constant value.

Now it is given that,

Time taken for icing 40 cupcakes = 70 minutes

∴ Icing of cupcakes in 1 minute = 40/70

                                                    = 0.57

Time taken for icing 28 cupcakes = 49 minutes

∴ Icing of cupcakes in 1 minute = 28/49

                                                    = 0.57

constant of proportionality = 0.57
