Answer:
p= -3d-6
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is right because he's eating 3 pieces each day after which would be -3d and d represents the amount of days, and the -6 represents the 6 pieces of candy he ate on his birthday. Hope this helps!
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/4
(3,3)....x = 3 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = -3/4(3) + b
3 = -9/4 + b
3 + 9/4 = b
12/4 + 9/4 = b
21/4 = b.....or 5.25 for graphing purposes
so ur equation is : y = -3/4x + 21/4
ur y int = (0,21/4) or (0,5.25)
ur x int can be found by subbing in 0 for y and solving for x
y = -3/4x + 21/4
0 = -3/4x + 21/4
3/4x = 21/4
x = 21/4 * 4/3
x = 84/12 = 7.....so ur x int is (7,0)
so plot ur points (7,0) and (0,5.25)....now start at (0,5.25) and since the slope is -3/4, come down 3 spaces and go to the right 4 spaces, then down 3, and to the right 4 and u will eventually cross the x axis at (7,0)

Explanation:
1. The general form of a quadratic in standard form* is ...
An example is ...
The constant c is the y-intercept, so is the easiest bit of information to obtain in this form.
__
2. The general form of a quadratic in vertex form can be written as ...
An example is ...
The ordered pair (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola, so is easy to obtain in this form. Arguably, it may be easier to identify the line of symmetry, x=h, since that requires looking at only one constant, instead of two.
_____
* In the UK, "standard form" is vertex form.
No but , they can be pretty easy sometimes
