Given:
The x- intercepts of a parabola are (0,-6) and (0,4).
The parabola crosses the y- axis at -120.
Lucas said that an equation for the parabola is [tex]y=5x^2+10x-120[/tex] and that the coordinates of the vertex are (-1, -125).
To find:
Whether Lucas is correct or not.
Solution:
The x- intercepts of a parabola are (0,-6) and (0,4). It means (x+6) and (x-4) are the factors of the equation of the parabola.
[tex]y=a(x+6)(x-4)[/tex] ...(i)
The parabola crosses the y- axis at -120. It means the equation of the parabola must be true for (0,-120).
[tex]-120=a(0+6)(0-4)[/tex]
[tex]-120=a(6)(-4)[/tex]
[tex]-120=-24a[/tex]
Divide both sides by -24.
[tex]\dfrac{-120}{-24}=a[/tex]
[tex]5=a[/tex]
Substituting [tex]a=5[/tex] in (i), we get
[tex]y=5(x+6)(x-4)[/tex]
[tex]y=5(x^2+6x-4x-24)[/tex]
[tex]y=5(x^2+2x-24)[/tex]
[tex]y=5x^2+10x-120[/tex]
So, the equation of the parabola is [tex]y=5x^2+10x-120[/tex].
The vertex of a parabola [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is:
[tex]Vertex=\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},f(-\dfrac{b}{2a})\right)[/tex]
In the equation of the parabola, [tex]a=5,b=10,c=-120[/tex].
[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{10}{2(5)}[/tex]
[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{10}{10}[/tex]
[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-1[/tex]
Putting [tex]x=-1[/tex] in the equation of the parabola, we get
[tex]y=5(-1)^2+10(-1)-120[/tex]
[tex]y=5-10-120[/tex]
[tex]y=-125[/tex]
So, the vertex of the parabola is at point (-1,-125).
Therefore, Lucas is correct.
what is the lowest common denominator of 4 7 5 2 and 1
Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
Lowest common denominator 4 , 7 ,5 , 2 and 1
= 4 * 7 * 5
= 140
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since usually common denominator is usually used with fractions (in this case), we can find out it's one because of how no numbers (except for 2 and 4) go into each other without a remainder except for one, so one would be the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:
The 12th term of the arithmetic sequence is 10.5. The 18th term of this sequence is 13.5. Find the common difference and the first term
Answer:
common difference is 0.5
first term is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
use the formula for the nth term of an ap Tn=a+(n-1)d
T12=10.5
T18=13.5
therefore come up with two equations
T12=a+(12-1)d
10.5=a+11d(1st equation)
T18=a+(18-1)d
13.5=a+17d(2nd equation)
then solve both as a simultaneous equation
a+11d=10.5
a+17d=13.5
-6d/-6=-3/-6
d=0.5
use one of the equations to find the first term
a+11(0.5)=10.5
a+5.5=10.5
a=10.5-5.5
a=5

A hot air balloon is released into the air. During its straight ascent, the angle of elevation was 15° and, 3 minutes later, the angle of elevation increased 20°. How fast is the balloon traveling, in km/h, if the angle measurements were taken 300m away from the launch site?
Answer:
The speed of balloon is 0.16 m/s.
Step-by-step explanation:
BC = 300 m
AD = x
AB = y
time, t = 3 min = 3 x 60 = 180 s
By the triangle, ADC,
[tex]tan 15 = \frac{AD}{BC}\\\\0.27 \times 300 = x \\\\x = 80.4 m[/tex]
By the triangle, BDC
[tex]tan 20 = \frac{BD}{BC}\\\\0.36 \times 300 = x + y \\\\x + y = 109.2 m[/tex]
So, y = 109.2 - 80.4 = 28.8 m
Speed of balloon = 28.8/180 = 0.16 m/s

Find the ordered pair $(s,t)$ that satisfies the system
\begin{align*}
\dfrac{s}{2} + 5t &= 3,\\
3t - 6s &= 9.
\end{align*}
Answer:
[tex]\left(\dfrac{8}{7} , \ \dfrac{17}{35} \right)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equations is presented as follows;
[tex]\dfrac{s}{2} + 5 \cdot t = 3[/tex]
3·t - 6·s = 9
Making t the subject of both equations, gives;
In the first equation; t = (3 - s/2)/5
In the second equation; t = (9 + 6·s)/3
Equating both values of t to find the the values that satisfies both equations, gives;
(3 - s/2)/5 = (9 + 6·s)/3
3 × (3 - s/2) = 5 × (9 + 6·s)
9 - (3/2)·s = 45 + 30·s
45 - 9 = (30 + (3/2))·s
36 = (63/2)·s
s = 36/(63/2) = 8/7
t = (3 - s/2)/5
∴ t = (3 - (8/7)/2)/5 = 17/35
Therefore, the ordered pair is (8/7, 17/35)
Which equation matches the graph shown?

[tex]y + 5 = -\frac{1}{2}*(x - 3)^2[/tex]
[tex]Is the graphed function.[/tex]
Which equation matches the graph shown?On the graph we can see a parabola that opens downwards, so it has a negative leading coefficient.
We also can see that the vertex of the parabola is on the point (3, -5)
Then the equation of the parabola is something like:
y + 5 = a*(x - 3)^2
Where a is a negative real number.
The only option of this form is option B, so we conclude that option B:

Mr. Ellington has a total of 32 students in his class , The ratio of girls to boys is 3:5, how many girls are in Mr . Ellington's class ?
Add the ratio: 3 + 5 = 8
Divide total students by that:
32/8 = 4
The ratio for girls is 3, multiply the 4 by 3:
4 x 3 = 12
There are 12 girls
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of girls to boys is 3:5, that means that for every 8 total students, 3 would be girls and 5 would be boys. Therefore 3/8 of the students are girls and 5/8 are boys. If 3/8 are girls, then:
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of 32
= [tex]\frac{3}{8} * 32[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{3 * 32}{8} \\= \frac{96}{8} \\= 12[/tex]

Answer:
1350m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance ran by Denise, Farah and Elaine be D, F and E meters respectively.
From the given information,
D= ⅔(E +F) -----(1)
E= ½(D +F) -----(2)
Let's get rid of the fraction so the equations are much easier to work with.
From (1):
3D= 2(E +F) (Multiply both sides by 3)
3D= 2E +2F -----(3) (Expand)
From (2):
2E= D +F -----(4)
Substitute (4) into (3):
3D= D +F +2F
3D -D= 3F
2D= 3F
Given that Farah ran 360m, F= 360.
2D= 3(360)
2D= 1080
D= 1080 ÷2
D= 540
2E= D +F
2E= 540 +360
2E= 900
E= 900 ÷2
E= 450
Total distance the 3 girls ran
= D +F +E
= 540 +360 +450
= 1350m
Alternatively, you could start by substituting F= 360 to equations (1) and (2).

Answer:
a) 30
b)600pi
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first questions, since the arc is 240°, the area of the sector and circumference will be 240/360 or 2/3 of the total of the circles'. Therefore 125.6 x 3/2 is the circumference, which is 188.4. When we divide this by 6.28, we get 30
Now, since the area is pi r^2 where we know that r=30, we get 900pi as the area of the whole thing, however since the sector is 2/3 of the whole circle, 2/3 x 900pi = 600pi

The function that represents the inequality of the given graph is;
Option A
Graph Inequalities
From the given graph, the curve with the shaded dot shows less than or equal to because the dot indicates that the maximum input value of x is at that point.
Secondly, the curve without a shaded dot shows that the input function of x is only greater than 3.
Looking at the options, option A is right and we will prove it thus;
for y = x³ - 3
At x = 2, we see that;
y = 2³ - 3
y = 5
This corresponds with the given equation
For the second curve, for y = x² + 6;
At x = 2, we have;
y = 2² + 6
y = 4 + 6
y = 10
This corresponds with what is given and is thus correct.

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!! You work for a consumer advocate agency and want to find the mean repair
cost of a washing machine. As part of your study, you randomly select 40
repair costs and find the mean to be $120.00. The sample standard deviation
is $17.50. The 99% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost is? A.(112.86, 127.14) B.(114.58, 125.42) C. (115.43, 124.57) D. (111.57, 128.43)
Answer:
The correct answer is - A.(112.86, 127.14)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
mean = $120
sd = $17.50
n = 40
Solution:
Confidence interval for a populationcan be express as mean +/- margin of error (E)
degree of freedom = n-1 = 40-1 = 39
confidence level (C) = 99% = 0.01
significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 = 99%
by margin of error E = t×sd/√n = 2.58*17.50/√40
= 2.58*2.76
= 7.138 or 7.14
then the lower limit of mean = mean - E = 120 - 7.14 = $112.86
and, the upper limit of population mean = mean + E = 120 + 7.14 = $127.14

2.4 x 10^12 means that the decimal point is moved 12 places to the right (hence the power of 12)
So by moving the decimal point 12 times you get this: 2,400,000,000,000
