Change the function into vertex form:
f(x)=x²-10x+16
make a square by (adding half of -10)², which is 25, then subtract it:
f(x)=x²-10x+25-25+16
f(x)=(x-5)²-9
so the vertex is at (5,-9)

another way to do it: 
f(x)=x²-10x+16
the vertex is when x=-\frac{b}{2a}, b=-10, a=1 in this case.
x=-(-10/2*1)=5
plug x=5 into the quadratic function, you get f(x)=-9

Albert bought some fish at a grocery store at $2 per pound for salmon and $4 per pound for catfish. He spent a total of $12 on s
Gemiola [76]

Albert bought 2 pounds of catfish and 2 pounds of salmon

Let c represent the amount of catfish in pounds and s represent the amount of salmon in pounds.

He spent a total of $12 on salmon and catfish and bought a total of 4 pounds.  Hence:

c + s = 4    (1)

4c + 2s = 12    (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

c = 2, s = 2

Albert bought 2 pounds of catfish and 2 pounds of salmon
