Julian has to read 4 articles for school. He has 8 nights to read them. He decides to read the same number of articles each nigh

daser333 [38]

Answer:

a. He will have to read half an article per night

b. Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = $\frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}$

Explanation:

Part a:

We are given that:

number of articles to read = 4 articles

number of nights = 8 nights

To get the number of articles that he should read per night, we will simply divide the the number of articles by the number of nights

Therefore:

number of articles to read per night = $\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$ articles per night

Part b:

Now, we know that he will read half an article each night from a total of 4 articles

To get the fraction of the reading assignment read each night, we will divide the number of articles read each night by the total number of assignments

Therefore:

Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = $\frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}$

Hope this helps :)

A quadratic function is a function of the form y=ax^2+bx+c where a, b, and c are constants. Given any 3 points in the plane, the

pochemuha

Answer:

The quadratic function whose graph contains these points is $y=-x^{2}-2x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a quadratic function is a function of the form $y=ax^{2}+bx+c$ . The first step is use the 3 points given to write 3 equations to find the values of the constants a,b, and c.

Substitute the points (0,-2), (-5,-17), and (3,-17) into the general form of a quadratic function.

$-2=a*0^{2}+b*0+c\\c=-2$

$-17=a*-5^{2}+b*-5+c\\c=-25a+5b-17$

$-17=a*3^{2}+b*3+c\\ c=-9a-3b-17$

We can solve these system of equations by substitution

Substitute $c=-9a-3b-17$

$-9a-3b-17=25a+5b-17\\-9a-3b-17=-2$

Isolate a for the first equation

$-9a-3b-17=-25a+5b-17\\a=\frac{b}{2}$

Substitute $a=\frac{b}{2}$ into the second equation

$-9\left(-\frac{b}{2}\right)-3b-17=-2$

Find the value of b

$-9\left(-\frac{4b}{17}\right)-3b-17=-2\\ b=-2$

Find the value of a

$a=\frac{b}{2}\\ a=-1$

The solutions to the system of equations are:

b=-2,a=-1,c=-2

So the quadratic function whose graph contains these points is

$y=-x^{2}-2x-2$

As you can corroborate with the graph of this function.

The distance between (-5, 3) and B(5, 3) is

8090 [49]

In here, we will use the distance formula
$\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}$

Compute the distance between (-5, 3) and (5, 3)
 $=\sqrt{\left(5-\left(-5\right)\right)^2+\left(3-3\right)^2}$

= 10

The distance between (-5, 3) and (5, 3) is 10
