Answer:
C. 125
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Bacteria on day 1 = 5
On day 2, each bacteria got split into 5.
So, number of bacteria on day 2 =
Now, again on day 3, each of the 25 bacteria got split into additional 5 bacteria.
So, number of of bacteria on day 3 =
Therefore, the population of bacteria on day 3 is 125.
if we zero out f(x), namely make y = 0, we can get the roots or x-intercepts for this quadratic equation
now, the equation is in x-terms, meaning is a vertically opening parabola, so the axis of symmetry will be x = something, a vertical line.
well, we have two x-intercepts, one at -4 and another at 2, and the vertex is right half-way between those guys
-4------------(-1)------------2
so the vertex is at x=-1, namely the axis of symmetry is x = -1.
