The original cost of a TV is $800. It is currently in sale for 25% off. What is the price if TV on sale?

1 answer:

6 0

Here’s how I did it even thought it’s not the “right way” of doing it.
800*.25=
200
So subtract 200 from 800 and that is 600. So your answer will be
C. 600

Graph the data in the table below. Which kind of function best models the data? write an equation to model the data.

harina [27]

Answer:

A quadratic function.

$y=2.5x^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot the points given in the table, you obtain the graph shown in the figure attached.

As you can see, it is a parabola, therefore, the function that best models the data is a quadratic function.

By definition, the parent function of a quadratic function is:

$y=x^{2}$

You can compress or stretch it in the y-direction by multiplying the function by a constant $C$ :

$y=Cx^{2}$

If $0$ , then the function is compressed.

If $C>1$ , then the function is stretched.

You can find the constant of the function asked as following:

- Substitute x=1 into the parent function to obtain the y-coordinate:

$y=(1)^{2}=1$

Then the point is (1,1)

- As you can see, with x=1 you obtain y=1 in the parent function, and in the function given in the table when x=1, y=2.5, therefore, the function is multiplied by 2.5. Therefore the constant is:

$C=2.5$
