We have: f(x)=x^2-10x+30

Method 1.

Use: (*)\ \ \ \ \ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

and the vertex form f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k

(h, k) - the coordinates of a vertex

x^2-10x+30=x^2-2\cdot x\cdot5+30=\underbrace{x^2-2\cdot x\cdot5+5^2}_{(*)}-5^2+30\\\\=(x-5)^2+5\to h=5;\ k=5

Answer: (5, 5)

Method 2.

For f(x)=ax^2+bx+c the coordinates of a vertex (h, k) are equal

h=\dfrac{-b}{2a};\ k=f(h)=\dfrac{-(b^2-4ac)}{4a}

We have: f(x)=x^2-10x+30\to a=1;\ b=-10;\ c=30

Substitute:

h=\dfrac{-(-10)}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{10}{2}=5\\\\k=f(5)=5^2-10\cdot5+30=25-50+30=5

Answer: (5, 5)

The easiest way to find the vertex is to convert this standard form equation into vertex form, which is y = a(x - h)^2 + k.

Firstly, put x^2 - 10x into parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x) + 30

Next, we want to make what's inside the parentheses a perfect square. To do that, we need to divide the x coefficient by 2 and square it. In this case, the result is 25. Add 25 inside the parentheses and subtract 25 outside of the parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x + 25) + 30 - 25

Next, factor what's inside the parentheses and combine like terms outside of the parentheses, and your vertex form is: y = (x - 5)^2 + 5.

Now going back to the formula of the vertex form, y = a(x - h)^2 + k, the vertex is (h,k). Using our vertex equation, we can see that the vertex is (5,5).

Mrs. Santos is buying binders for the students in her class. She determined that 15 binders would cost $22.50.

Answer:

It will cost $42 for 28 binders

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 15 binders = 22.50 dollars . We need to find the cost of 18, 30, 28, and 48 binders to figure out if they match up with the statements. One way to do this is to find the cost for one binder, and then multiply that by the number of binders to find the cost for a certain number of binders. For example, if one binder costs 2 dollars, five binders would cost 2 * 5 = 10 dollars.

To figure out how much one binder costs, we can use the division property of equality to divide both sides of our equation (15 binders = 22.50 dollars) by 15. We divide by 15 because anything divided by itself is equal to 1, and that would make it 1 binder = something dollars.

Applying this, we get

(15 binders)/15 = (22.5 dollars)/15

1 binder = 1.5 dollars

For 18 binders, this would cost 1.5 * 18 = 27 dollars. We know this because we add 1.5 dollars for each binder.

For 30 binders, this would cost 30*15=45 dollars

For 28 binders, this would cost 1.5 * 28 = 42 dollars

For 48 binders, this would cost 1.5*48 = 72 dollars

The only one that matches up is 28 binders for 42 dollars

You know you have 2 building A and B so divide the total hight of both towers by 2; total of 7650765. You know Building A is 20020 feet shorter thus you subtract that from 7650765.
Building A is 7,630,745 feet tall
Building B is 7,670,785 feet tall
