john had a ribbon that was 1 1/2 meters long. he used 2 pieces that were each 1/3 of that length. how much ribbon did john use

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Of means multiplication. So the question is 1/3 X 1 1/2. First make 1 1/2 improper: 3/2. Then multiply the numerators (top numbers) and denominaters (bottom numbers): 1x3=3, 3x2=6, =3/6. Now simplify 3/6=1/2. Then multiply that by 2, since he used 2 pieces: 1/2x2=1. John used 1 meter :)

Find the coordinate of the vertex of the following parabola algebraically. y=2x^2-28x+80

Answers

Answer:

vertex = (7, - 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

given a parabola in standard form : ax² + bx + c : a ≠ 0

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x_(vertex) = - (b)/(2a)

y = 2x² - 28x + 80 is in standard form

with a = 2, b = -28 and c = 80, hence

x_(vertex) = - (-28)/(4) = 7

substitute x = 7 into the equation for corresponding value of y

y = 2(7)² - 28(7) + 80 = 98 - 196 + 80 = - 18

vertex = (7, - 18)

Answers

Answer:

#2 Karen is 7 years old

#3 Amy will be 31 years old in 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

2#:

  1. b+3=2(k+3)
  2. b-2=3(k-2)
  3. 2b+1=5k
  4. 2b-5k=-1
  5. b-2k=3
  6. 2b-4k=6
  7. 2b-4k-(2b-5k)=6-(-1)
  8. k=7

3#:

  1. a+1=2(s-5)
  2. a+s+8=45
  3. a-2s=-11
  4. a=37-s
  5. 37-3s=-11
  6. -3s=-48
  7. s=16
  8. a=37-16
  9. a=21
  10. 21+10=31

Can someone explain to me how to do this

Answers

Angles on a straight line add up to 180°, so:

x + 60 = 180

x = 180 - 60

x = 120°
60+60+60=180
180/60=30
x=30
