Answer:
Shirt: $7.5
Sweater: $17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
25/2=12.5
Shirt is 5 less than Sweater
12.5-5=7.5
Add 5 to sweater cost
12.5+5=17.5
Shirt=7.5 Sweater=17.5
17.5+7.5=25
General equation of parabola: y-k = a(x-h)^2
Here the vertex is at (0,0), so we have y-0 = a(x-0)^2, or y = ax^2
All we have to do now is to find the value of the coefficient a.
(1,2) is on the curve. Therefore, 2 = a(1)^2, or 2 = a(1), or a = 2.
The equation of this parabola is y = 2x^2.
