A= $9.90 B= $64.90
because, 18% of $55 is $9.90. Then you would add $9.90 to $55 and get $64.90
Below are suppose the be the questions:
a. factor the equation
<span>b. graph the parabola </span>
<span>c. identify the vertex minimum or maximum of the parabola </span>
<span>d. solve the equation using the quadratic formula
</span>
below are the answers:
Vertex form is most helpful for all of these tasks.
<span>Let </span>
<span>.. f(x) = a(x -h) +k ... the function written in vertex form. </span>
<span>a) Factor: </span>
<span>.. (x -h +√(-k/a)) * (x -h -√(-k/a)) </span>
<span>b) Graph: </span>
<span>.. It is a graph of y=x^2 with the vertex translated to (h, k) and vertically stretched by a factor of "a". </span>
<span>c) Vertex and Extreme: </span>
<span>.. The vertex is (h, k). It is a maximum if "a" is negative; a minimum otherwise. </span>
<span>d) Solutions: </span>
<span>.. The quadratic formula is based on the notion of completing the square. In vertex form, the square is already completed, so the roots are </span>
<span>.. x = h ± √(-k/a)</span>
The answer would be B. You would need to keep the first fraction, change to multiplication, and flip the second fraction and multiply across.
The answer would be B. Look at the graph - on top, to the left goes toward -infinity, while to the right it does the opposite. On the bottom, or the y, to the left and right it increases indefinitely. Plug this together, and you have your answer.
I hope this helped, and have a nice day!
