Christina and sarah went on a fishing trip and caught 31 fish. christina caught one less than three times as many fish as sarah got. can you me set up a 5d table to figure out how many fish each girl caught?

I think Christina caught 23 fish and Sarah caught 8 fish.

Step-by-step explanation:

If I did this right, we have to find the equation to represent this situation. Christina caught one less than 3 times as many as Sarah caught. Since we do not know how many Sarah has, we have to use a variable so let's go with x. One less than 3 times as many would be 3x - 1 because one less means subtracting 1 and 3 times means multiply by three. So we have x for Sarah and 3x - 1 for Christina. We add those together to get x + 3x - 1 = 31 (since they caught 31 fish, the total would be 31). We simplify it down to 4x - 1 = 31. Add one to both sides to cancel it out and we get 4x = 32. Divide by 4 on both sides and we get x = 8. Since Sarah was x, Sarah caught 8 fish. To find Christina we just plug in the 8. 3(8) -1. 3 times 8 is 24 and 24 minus 1 is 23. To check our answers we add 8 and 23 together which comes out to be 31.

Please correct me if I'm wrong! (Now I'm not sure what you mean by a 5D table but if this is right I hope it helps)

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1

this is a good question! i’ll do some research and what i find, i’ll contact you asap when i have something! ✊
