f(x) = x^2 + 16x
Completing the square.
f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k
f(x) = (x + 8)^2 - 64
h = -8, k = -64
Vertex = (h,k)
Vertex = (-8, -64)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that in the after school Dena, Shawn, and Amanda knit scarfs that are the same size with yellow, white, and blue yarn. Denas scarf is 2/5 yellow, Shawn's scarf is 3/5 , and Amanda's scarf is 3/4 yellow.
To make Amanda's argument true, let us compare each fraction by making a common denominator.
We can see that least common denominator of each fraction would be 20.



Since
, therefore, Amanda's scarf has the most yellow.
Answer:
The number of miles at which a car rented from either company cost the same amount is <u>50 miles</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represents the number of miles at which a car rented from either company cost the same amount. Therefore, we can have the following equation:
RC = 25 + 0.14x ....................... (1)
BC = 23 + 0.18x ...................... (2)
Where;
RC = Total cost of Rent-Me Rent-A-Car
BC = Total cost of Better Deal Rental Car
The the cost of the two companies equal where RC = BC. Therefore, we equate equations (1) and (2) and solve for x as follows:
25 + 0.14x = 23 + 0.18x
25 - 23 = 0.18x - 0.14x
2 = 0.04x
x = 2 / 0.04
x = 50
Therefore, the number of miles at which a car rented from either company cost the same amount is <u>50 miles</u>.
<u>Note:</u>
This can be confirmed for equations (1) and (2) individually by substituting for x = 50 as follows:
For equation (1):
RC = 25 + 0.14(50)
RC = 25 + 7
RC = 32
For equation (2):
BC = 23 + 0.18(50)
BC = 23 + 9
BC = 32
Therefore, RC = BC = 32 confirms the answer.
The answer would be a 5% discount.
