The x-value of the vertex of the given parabola is x = 5, so the correct option is b.

<h3>How to get the x-value of the vertex?</h3>

If we define the parabola by f(x), by looking at the table, we can read:

  • f(2) = 8
  • f(6) = 2
  • f(8) = 8

So, notice that:

f(2) = f(8).

Then the x-coordinate of the vertex is the midpoint between 2 and 8.

x = (2 + 8)/2 = 5

The x-value of the vertex of the given parabola is x = 5, so the correct option is b.

Which form of money came into existence because of goldsmiths receipts?
AveGali [126]
<span>PAPER MONEY.
As wealth increases, owning a large number of gold and silver coins becomes a security problem. As coins are portable, they are also easy to steal. The next step in the development of money was for people to leave their surplus gold and silver coins with a goldsmith who had a reputation for honesty and who operated premises which were secure. The goldsmith would give a receipt, which would entitle the owner to withdraw their coins when they needed them. This was the beginning of paper money.</span>

What are compatible number of 7233 divided by 84
valkas [14]
To me, do the math using compatible number, means to estimate
7233 can round to 8000
and 84 can round to 80
now, this makes it easy, you can do it mentally, which is 100

In more detailed, 
7233 can round to 7225
and 84 can round to 85
then, (not so obvious, but however) 85 times 85 equal 7225

so the compatible number of 7233 divided by 84, is 7225 and 85

I know it's a bit late, but hope it helps
