Answer: C. $22.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First round off the given prices to the neares half dollar

$1.85 ≈ $2

$.98 ≈ $1

$3.49 ≈ $3.50

$9.78 ≈ $10

$6.18 ≈ $6

Now, the estimate of the total cost of these items =\$2+\$1+\$3.50+\$10+\$6=\$22.50

Thus, he estimate of the total cost of these items is $22.50.

Hence, C is the right answer.

If you wish to<u> mentally estimate</u> the <u>total cost</u> of items, <u>rounding </u>off the items to the<u> nearest half dollar</u>, then you have to consider all five items separately.

Five items cost $1.85, $.98, $3.49, $9.78, and $6.18.

1. $1.85≈$2;

2. $0.98≈$1;

3. $3.49≈$3.50;

4. $9.78≈$10;

5. $6.18≈$6.

Then the total cost is

$2 + $1 + $3.50 + $10 + $6 =$22.50.

Answer: correct choice is C

Which equation has a graph that is a parabola with a vertex at (5,3)?
lara [203]

Answer:

y =  (x -5)² + 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : parabola with a vertex at (5,3).

To find : Which equation has a graph that is a parabola.

Solution : We have given vertex at (5,3).

Vertex form of parabola : y = (x -h)² + k .

Where, (h ,k )  vertex .

Plug h = 5  , k= 3 in vertex form of parabola.

Equation  :y =  (x -5)² + 3.

Therefore, y =  (x -5)² + 3.

How does the graph of g(x)= 1/x-5+2 compared to the graph of the parent function f(x)=1/x?
Finger [1]

Answer: The graph is shifted to the right by 5 units and shifted up from the parent function.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, a parent function is the simplest form of a function.

2. You have the following parent function given in the problem:

f(x)=\frac{1}{x}

2. The function g(x) is obtained from the function f(x)

g(x)=\frac{1}{x-5}+2

Where the subtraction of 5 indicates the horizotanl shift to the left and the addition of 2 indicates the vertical shift up.

3. Therefore, keeping the information above on mind, you can conclude that the answer is: the graph is shifted to the right by 5 units and shifted up from the parent function.
