Tiffany is solving an equation where both sides are quadratic expressions. She sets each quadratic equation equal to y and graphs the resulting system. If the graph of one quadratic opens upward and the other opens downward, what is the greatest possible number of intersections for these graphs?

n

step-by-step explanation:

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

answer: h=5.6 i don't really know how to put into words, so i though i would let you do that. i hope i was able to some

step-by-step explanation:

18 = 6(h)+1/2

18 = 6h+1/2

18-1 = 6h/2

17 = 3h

17/3 = h

h = 5.6

hi i’m going tomorrow morning and i can come over and you out with this stuff for me haha ya day is going crazy and i’ll tell you what i’m talking about you don’t wanna go do you think i’m going to be a good friend i just don’t know how much you mean about the stuff you want to do and stuff you know i just want you and you know that i’m going crazy i don’t think i’m going crazy about going tomorrow and i’ll tell ya hey i don’t think i’m going crazy about going tomorrow and i’ll tell you what i’m done
