she also really needed to add in that she had depression
what about the last one ?
they look right
1.)c.)y=3x^2;y=7x^2;y=5x^2
The quadratic fractions can be ordered from widest to narrowest graph by looking at the coefficients of the x^2 term. In this case, the widest graph would have the largest coefficient of x^2, so y=7x^2 would be the widest graph, followed by y=5x^2, and y=3x^2 as the narrowest.
So, the correct answer is c.)y=3x^2;y=7x^2;y=5x^2
2.)b.)L=13 yards;W=18 yards
Let the length of the playground be x.
Then, the width would be x+5.
The area of the playground is given by length multiplied by width:
x(x+5) = 234
x^2 + 5x - 234 = 0
Factoring or using the quadratic formula, we find that x = 13 or x = -18 (ignore negative value).
So, the length is 13 yards and the width is 13 + 5 = 18 yards.
The correct answer is b.)L=13 yards;W=18 yards.
3.)c.)4
To make the trinomial x^2+8x+c a perfect square trinomial, we need the coefficient of the x term to be twice the square root of c.
In this case, the coefficient of the x term is 8, so we want 2 times the square root of c to be 8.
Solving for c, we have:
2(sqrt(c)) = 8
sqrt(c) = 4
c = 4
So, the value of c is 4.
The correct answer is c.)4.
4.)c.)289/4
To make the trinomial x^2+17x+c a perfect square trinomial, we need the coefficient of the x term to be twice the square root of c.
In this case, the coefficient of the x term is 17, so we want 2 times the square root of c to be 17.
Solving for c, we have:
2(sqrt(c)) = 17
sqrt(c) = 17/2
c = (17/2)^2 = 289/4
So, the value of c is 289/4.
The correct answer is c.)289/4.
1.) To determine the order of the quadratic fractions from widest to narrowest graph, we need to compare the coefficients of the x^2 term. The coefficient represents the "stretching" or "narrowing" factor of the graph.
In this case, we have the following quadratic fractions:
y = 3x^2
y = 5x^2
y = 7x^2
Comparing the coefficients, we can see that the quadratic fractions are in the order of increasing coefficients: 3, 5, and 7. The wider the graph, the smaller the coefficient, and vice versa. Therefore, the correct answer is:
c.) y = 3x^2; y = 7x^2; y = 5x^2
2.) Let's assume the length of the playground is x yards. According to the problem, the width is 5 yards longer than the length, so the width would be (x + 5) yards.
The area of a rectangle is equal to its length multiplied by its width. We are given that the area is 234 yd^2, so we can set up the equation:
x * (x + 5) = 234
Expanding and rearranging the equation, we get:
x^2 + 5x = 234
To solve this quadratic equation, we can set it equal to zero:
x^2 + 5x - 234 = 0
Now we can factorize or use the quadratic formula to solve for x. After finding the solutions, we can check which combination of length and width satisfies the given conditions:
a.) L = 18 yards; W = 13 yards
b.) L = 13 yards; W = 18 yards**
c.) L = 18 yards; W = 26 yards
d.) L = 26 yards; W = 18 yards
Among the options, the one that satisfies the condition of the width being 5 yards longer than the length is option b:
Length (L) = 13 yards
Width (W) = 18 yards
3.) For a quadratic trinomial x^2 + 8x + c to be a perfect square trinomial, its middle term (8x) must be twice the product of the square root of the first and last terms (x * √c).
In this case, the first term is x^2, and the last term is c. So, doubling the product of x and √c gives us 2(x * √c) = 2x√c.
To make the middle term 8x, we need 8x = 2x√c. Canceling out x, we get:
8 = 2√c
Dividing both sides by 2, we find:
4 = √c
Squaring both sides, we get:
16 = c
Therefore, the correct answer is:
c.) 4
4.) Similar to the previous question, for the quadratic trinomial x^2 + 17x + c to be a perfect square trinomial, its middle term (17x) must be twice the product of the square root of the first and last terms (x * √c).
In this case, the first term is x^2, and the last term is c. So, doubling the product of x and √c gives us 2(x * √c) = 2x√c.
To make the middle term 17x, we need 17x = 2x√c. Canceling out x, we get:
17 = 2√c
Dividing both sides by 2, we find:
8.5 = √c
Squaring both sides, we get:
72.25 = c
Therefore, the correct answer is:
b.) 289
