A ham sandwich consists of one slice of ham (9 grams) and two slices of bread (25 grams each). you have 1 kg of ham and 1.2 kg o

The rule of thumb for this kind of problem is that you must first determine the limiting variable in your situation. We know that for a single sandwich, 50 grams bread greatly exceeds the 9 grams of ham requirement. We also know that there will be a greater supply of ham since 1 kg is relatively close in amount to 1.2 kg. This means that we only need to look at the bread for calculation purposes. We can get the total number of sandwiches to be 1200 / 50 = 24 sandwiches.

How the heck r u supposed to round this? I tried and it says its wrong!

Rus_ich [418]

The result of division is 21.392

Rounded to the nearest tenth its 21.4 answer

(because the hundredth digit is 9 so you add 1 to the tenth digit.)

determine the quadratic function of f whose graph is given. The vertex is (1,-3) and the y-intercept is -2

LuckyWell [14K]

Hmmm the y-intercept is at -2? what does that mean? well, is where the graph "intercepts" or touches the y-axis, and when that happens, x = 0, so the point is really ( 0 , -2 ).

and we know where the vertex is at. Let's assume a vertical parabola, in which case the squared variable is the "x".

$\bf \qquad \textit{parabola vertex form}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
\boxed{y=a(x-{{ h}})^2+{{ k}}}\\\\
x=a(y-{{ k}})^2+{{ h}}
\end{array} \qquad\qquad vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
vertex
\begin{cases}
h=1\\
k=-3
\end{cases}\implies y=a(x-1)^2-3
\\\\\\
\textit{now, we also know that }
\begin{cases}
x=0\\
y=-2
\end{cases}\implies -2=a(0-1)^2-3
\\\\\\
1=a(-1)^2\implies \boxed{1=a}\qquad thus\implies 
\begin{cases}
y=1(x-1)^2-3\\
\textit{or just}\\
y=(x-1)^2-3
\end{cases}$
