Y = x^2 is the parent function.
y = (x - 2)^2 would translate 2 units to the right
y = (x - 2)^2 - 2 would translate 2 units to the right and also 2 units down
y = - (1/2) (x - 2)^2 - 2
would reflect the parabola upside down, and also make it wider
Hello, Marymack!
We know that in a geometric sequence defined by

and

, the sum can be calculated the following way:
If 0.75 cups = 20 cookies
0.375 cups = 10 cookies
1.875 cups = 50 cookies
3 bottles of juice
6.72/3 = $2.24 < amount paid for each bottle
11 bottles of juice
24.86/11 = $2.26 <amount paid for each bottle
9 bottles of juice
20.25/9 = $2.25 < amount paid for each bottle
16 bottles of juice
35.68/16 = $2.23 < amount paid for each bottle
*the best buy would be to get 16 bottles for $35.68*
10 bars of soap
23.20/10 = $2.32 < amount for each bar of soap
16 bars of soap
36.48/16 = $2.28 < amount for each bar of soap
13 bars of soap
29.51/13 = $2.27 < amount paid for each bar of soap
12 bars of soap
27.60/12 = $2.30 < amount for each bar of soap
*the best buy would be to get 13 bars of soap for $29.51*
hope this helps :)
8.85 x 1000= 8,850
Hoped this helped.
