Actually you can't solve this. There is no solutions.
The parabola is opens upward.
a = (8 – 5)
= 3
Using the standard form:
(x – h)^2 = 4a(y – k)
(x -5)^2 = 12( y – 4)
In general form
x^2 -10x +25 =12y – 48
x^2 -10x -12y + 73 =0
Answer:
369.7 mL of medication
Step-by-step explanation:
How many mL of medication are needed to last 10 days if the dose of medication is 2.5 tsp TID (three times a day)?
From the above question,
The dosage of the medication =
2.5 tsp 3 times a day
= 2.5 × 3 = 7.5 tsp per day.
Since
1 day = 7.5 tsp
10 days = x tsp
Cross Multiply
x = 10 × 7.5 tsp
x = 75 tsp of medication for 10 days.
Step 2
It is important to note that:
1 tsp = 4.929 mL
75 tsp = x mL
Cross Multiply
x = 75 × 4.929 mL
x = 369.669 mL of medication
Approximately = 369.7 mL of medication
F(x)=2(x-5)^2-24 simple algebra
