Step-by-step explanation:
Going to assume you need to know that value of x
2x + 6 = 2
isolate the variable by subtracting 6 on both sides
2x = 8
divide by 2
x = 4
Answer:
$3.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The grapes costs $2.70 per pound but you're buying 2.5 pounds so take $2.70 x 2.5 = $6.75. Now u just take $10 - $6.75 which equals $3.25 and thats ur answer.
Answer:
y = -2x^2 - 4x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that the graph passes through (-2, -1), (-1, 1) and (0, -1).
Let's solve
ax^2 + bx + c = y
a(-2)^2 + b(-2) + c = -1
4a - 2b + c = -1
a(-1)^2 + b(-1) + c = 1
a - b + c = 1
a0^2 + b0 + c = -1
c = -1
we got c = -1 so we input it into the other 2
4a - 2b - 1 = -1
4a - 2b = 0
2a - b = 0
2a = b
a - b - 1 = 1
a - b = 2
a = b + 2
Let's input b = 2a
a = 2a + 2
-a = 2
a = -2
b = 2a = 2*(-2) = -4
c = -1
y = -2x^2 - 4x - 1
