f(x)=ax^2+bx+c\\\\(0;\ 3)\to x=0;\ y=3\to f(0)=3\\therefore\\3=a\cdot0^2+b\cdot0+c\\\boxed{c=3}\\\\(1;\ 4)\to x=1;\ y=4\to f(1)=4\\therefore\\4=1^2\cdot a+1\cdot b+3\\4=a+b+3\ \ \ |subtract\ 3\ from\ both\ sides\\(1)\boxed{a+b=1}\\\\(-1;-6)\to x=-1;\ y=-6\to f(-1)=-6\\therefore\\-6=(-1)^2a+(-1)b+3\\-6=a-b+3\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 3\ from\ both\ sides\\(2)\boxed{a-b=-9}

We have (1) & (2):

alex41 [277]

Answer: The percent of the total was spent on veterinarian bills is 27.70% ( approx).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, In 2011, Americans spent approximately $50.9 billion on their pets.

i.e. Total amount they spent on pets = $50.9 billion

Amount spent for veterinarian bills.  = $14.1 billion was for veterinarian bills.

Then, the percent of the total was spent on veterinarian bills would be :

\dfrac{\text{Amount spent for veterinarian bills. }}{\text{Total amount they spent on pets}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{14.1}{50.9}\times100\\\\=27.7013752456\approx27.70\%

Hence, the percent of the total was spent on veterinarian bills is 27.70% (approx).
