iVinArrow [24]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "c. translate circle J by (x-a, y-b) and dilate by a factor of t/s." Circle J is located in the first quadrant with center (a, b) and radius s. Felipe transforms Circle J to prove that it is similar to any circle centered <span>at the origin with radius r.</span>

This table represents a quadratic function. x y 0 -3 1 -3.75 2 -4 3 -3.75 4 -3 5 -1.75 What is the value of a in the function’s
serg [7]

Answer:

a = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Our strategy to solve this problem will be to use the information given in the table to obtain  first the value of c in the quadratic equation which has the form ax^2 + bx + c and then form a system of 2 linear equations  and solve for the coefficients a and b as follow:

from x=0 and y=-3   a*0 + b* 0 + c = - 3

c = -3

from x=1 and  y= -3.75

a*(1) + *(1) + (-3) = -3.75

a + b = -3.75 + 3 = -0.75

from x= 2 and y = -4

a* (2)^2 + b*(2) + (-3) = -4

4a + 2b = -4 +1

4a + 2b = -1

Now we can solve the system f equations by elimination:

a + b = -0.75

4a + 2b = -1

multiply first equation by -2 and add to the second and  get

-2a - 2b = +1.50

4a + 2b = -1

2a = 0.50 and substituting into any of the equations get b =  -1

so the quadratic equation has a= 0.25 b= -1  c= -3

we can even  plug the any of the other values for  x given in the table and check the answer.

Lin read for x minutes, and Elena read for more than that. Write an expression for the number of minutes Elena read. Only use de
Vikentia [17]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

In this exercise, we know some facts:

  • Lin read for x minutes.
  • Elena read for more than that.

The problem tells us nothing about the number of minutes Elena read more than Lin. However, let's say Elena read one-third more than the number of minutes Lin read. Therefore:

<u>For Lin:</u>

Number \ of \ minutes \ Lin \ read=x

<u>For Elena:</u>

Number \ of \ minutes \ Elena \ read=x+\frac{1}{3}x \\ \\ Number \ of \ minutes \ Elena \ read=\frac{3x+x}{3} \\ \\ Number \ of \ minutes \ Elena \ read=\frac{4x}{3} \\ \\ Number \ of \ minutes \ Elena \ read=\frac{4x}{3} \\ \\ \\ By \ using \ decimals: \\ \\ Number \ of \ minutes \ Elena \ read \approx 1.33x
