Mike bought 5 pounds of red candy and 6 pounds of blue candy.

What is word problem?

 Our comprehensive list of math problems focuses on addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and more specific operations. A math problem is a math question written in one or more sentences that asks a child to apply math knowledge to the "real world." life scenario. This means that children need to be familiar with the vocabulary related to the mathematical symbols they used to understand the meaning of word problems.

Here Mike  spent $11.19 on a bag of red and blue candies and both candies weigh 11 lbs

=>Red candies weigh x lbs

=>Blue candies weigh (11-x) lbs

Here cost of x red candy is

=>$1.29/lb* x lbs of red candy

=> 1.29x

Now ,(11-x) lbs of blue candy costs $0.79 (11-x) = $8.69-0 .79 x

Due to the problem, $8.69 - 0.79 x + 1.29 x = $11.19

or $0.50 x = $11.19 - $8.69 = 2.50 $

or $50 x / 100 = $250 / $100

or $50 x = 250 $

or x = 250/50 = 5, red The candy weighs 5 pounds

The blue candy weighs =11-x=11–5=6 pounds

Therefore mike  bought 5 pounds of red candy and 6 pounds of blue candy.

What is the y-value of the vertex of the function f(x)=-(x-3)(x+11)
lutik1710 [3]

so, this is a quadratic equation, meaning two solutions, and we have a factored form of it, meaning you can get the solutions by simply zeroing out the f(x).

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{0}=-(x-3)(x+11)\implies 0=(x-3)(x+11)\implies x= \begin{cases} 3\\ -11 \end{cases} \\\\\\ \boxed{-11}\stackrel{\textit{\large 7 units}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}-4\stackrel{\textit{\large 7 units}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}\boxed{3}

so the zeros/solutions are at x = 3 and x = -11, now, bearing in mind the vertex will be half-way between those two, checking the number line, that midpoint will be at x = -4, so the vertex is right there, well, what's f(x) when x = -4?

\bf f(-4)=-(-4-3)(-4+11)\implies f(-4)=7(7)\implies f(-4)=49 \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{vertex}{(-4~~,~~49)}~\hfill
