Answer:

The shrinkage as a percentage of sales is 1.6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the percentage of the sales that can be contributed to shrinkage, we first need to find the amount of shrinkage between the book value ($907,340) and the physical inventory ($875,435).  The difference between these two values is $31,905.  With this value of shrinkage, I then divide by the total amount in sales, which is $1,988,345.  This would give me an overall percentage of 1.6%, which represents the shrinkage as a percentage of sales.

Answer:

P(-1, 0); Q(0, -1); R(2, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

When you reflect coordinates over the y-axis, the y-coordinates do not change, while the signs of the x-coordinates are flipped. You can see the example attached!

And so, after reflecting P'(1, 0), you would get P(-1, 0) because the sign of the x-value is flipped and the y-value does not change.

Q'(0, -1) becomes Q(0, -1) because 0 is neither negative nor positive, and the y-value does not change.

R'(-2, -1) becomes R(2, -1) because the sign of the x-value is flipped to positive and the y-value does not change.

Hope this helps!

Consider the quadratic function f(x)=2x^2-8x-10
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

f(x) = 2x² - 8x - 10.

This is a parabola open upward (since a>0) with an axis of symmetry = -b/2a:

a) axis of symmetry: x = -(-8)/(2*2) = 8/4 = 2. Then x = 2, which is the x component of the vertex

b) for x =  2, f(x) = f(2) = - 18 (component of y of the vertex)

c) VERTEX(2, - 18)

d) DISCRIMINENT: b² - 4.a.c = 64 - 4*2*(-10) = 144

Hope this helps! :)
