For this case we have a standard quadratic equation of the form:
 f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c&#10;
 As the function is negative then the following is true:
 a \ \textless \ 1&#10;
 Therefore, when the leading coefficient is less than one then:
 1) The parable opens down.
 2) The cutting points with the x axis can be positive or negative
 3) The cutoff point with the y axis can be positive or negative
 4) The axis of symmetry can be to the right or to the left of zero.
 5) The vertex of the parabola is a maximum and this is because the second derivative is negative.

 Answer:
 
The vertex is a maximum.

a suit is being sold at a 20 % off (discount). The sale price is $ 270. What was the original price ?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The original price is 337.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If we get 20% off, we still have to pay 100-20 =80%

Let x be the original price

x *80% = 270

.80x = 270

Divide each side by .80

.80x/.80 = 270/.80

x =337.50

The original price is 337.50
