The generic equation of a parabola is:
f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c
To verify the equation of the parabola you need three points:
f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c
We choose the points:
(x, y) = (- 1,7)
7 = a (-1) ^ 2 + b (-1) + c
7 = a - b + c
(x, y) = (0,5)
5 = a (0) ^ 2 + b (0) + c
5 = c
(x, y) = (- 2,5)
5 = a (-2) ^ 2 + b (-2) + c
5 = 4a - 2b + c
We solve:
c = 5
5 = 4a - 2b + 5
7 = a - b + 5
Rewriting
b = 2a
a-b = 2
Substituting:
a-2a = 2
a = -2
b = -4
The equation of the parabola is:
f (x) = - 2x ^ 2 -4x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Osvoldo did not meet his goal.
Step-by-step explanation:
If he ate 220 grams of carbohydrates today and 55 grams were from whole grains, it means that the percentage of the carbohydrates he ate today that came from whole grains is
55/220 × 100 = 25%
Since he has a goal of getting at least 30% percent of his grams of carbohydrates each day from whole grains, then he did not meet his goal because 25% is lesser than 30% and he needs 30% or more
Okay. So, the amount was previously $5 per 1,000. The price has gone up to $5.90. That’s a 90 cent change from the previous 5 dollars. To find the percent of change, we have to do change/original. 0.90/5 is 0.18. Multiply that by 100 to get 18. The percent increase to the nearest whole number is 18%.
