first you will need to divide 85 by 100

85÷100=0.85

Then divide 68 by 0.85

68÷0.85=80

80 is what percentage $68 is of $85

So what you left with is a 20% discount

[(68-85) divided by 85] x 100%
= -20%

Find the axis of symmetry and vertex of the following y= -2x2-3x+2
Mnenie [13.5K]
Y= -2x²-3x+2, (form y = ax² +b .x + c

The parabola opens downward & hence it's Vertex is a MAXIMUM.

We know that the axis of symmetry is -b/2a ==>3/(-4) ==>
x= - 3/4 (axis of symmetry. At x=-3/4 , y = 25/8 = 3.125

Hence the axis of symmetry is x= - 3/4 & the vertex is at (-3/4, 25/8)
