Gerald bought a home for $300,000. His largest up–front cost is 10 percent, or $30,000. What is this cost called?
1 answer:
Answer:
The cost is called DOWN PAYMENT. The down payment is an initial payment you have to make when buying something on credt.
The down payment varies depending on the price of what you're buying and not all credits require a down payment. As an example, I'm attaching an example of a phone you can buy on credit and no downpayment is required.
The down payment is expressed in percentage of the total cost of the item/property you're buying. In Gerald's case, the down payment was 10% of the total value of the house.

Step-by-step explanation:
This equation is in "vertex form," meaning that you can identify the vertex and other features of the graph from the equation.
y = a(x -h)² +k . . . . . the vertex is (h, k); the vertical scale factor is "a"
Comparing to your equation, you see ...
a = -1/2, h = 3, k = -1
The vertex is (h, k) = (3, -1). The vertical scale factor is negative.
__
This tells you the graph opens downward (the scale factor is negative), and the vertex (maximum point) is below the x-axis. (It has a negative y-coordinate.)
Because it start below the x-axis and goes down from there, the graph does not intersect the x-axis. There are zero (0) x-intercepts.
