Answer:
y = 2x^2 is a parabola opening up with it's vertex at (0,0)... y=3x^2 -4 is also a parabola opening up, but it is 'thinner' in that it rises in y faster and it's vertex is at (0,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
all equations of the type y = ax^2 + b are parabolas centered on the y-axis, soo the vertex is always on (0,b)
If a is positive then the parabola opens up,
the bigger a is, the 'thinner' the graph is, i.e. the faster the graph rises
the value of b determines the location of the vertex, if b is added, then the vertex rises over the x-axis, if b is subtracted then the vertex is below the x-axis
RU is 34. To find the answer you can use a proportion. In this problem the proportion would be 60/51 = 40/x. You can then cross multiply giving you 51*40=60x. You can then solve for x which is your answer.
Hi,
To find the cost before tax, we must find out how much the tax is. So we multiply 252 x .05 to get 12.6. So we know the tax was 12.6 dollars. Now all we have to do is subtract that from the total to get our answer. 252 - 12.6 = 239.4.
Have a great day!
