You find the x coordinates using x = -b/2a = -6/2(-1) = 3
Substitute 3 in the equation and find y
y = -(3^2) + 6(3) - 12 = -9 + 18 - 12 = -3
Vertex (3,-3)
The average of 4, 9, 16, 25 and x is 2x means that;
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
Multiply both side by 5
5(54+x)/5=2x(5)
54+x=10x
Subtract x to both side
54+x-x=10x-x
54=9x
Divided 9 to both side
54/9=9x/9
x=6
Check:
Substitute x with 6
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
(4+9+16+25+6)/5=2(6)
60/5=12
12=12; so x=6 which marks B as the correct answer. Have a nice day!
For this case we have the following statement:
<em>"You have 2 meters of fabric and you cut 85% to make curtains, 50% of the rest to make the strips that hold it. How many centimeters of fabric were left?"</em>
So, we have:
2 meters ---------> 100%
x ----------------------> 85%
Where "x" represents the amount of fabric meters equivalent to 85%.

Thus, 1.7 meters of fabric were used to make curtains.
There are 0.3 meters of fabric left, of which half (50%) is used to make the strips that hold the curtain. That is to say:

Thus, 0.15 meters of fabric remain.

Thus, 15 cm of fabric remain
Answer;
15 cm
