<span>Tabia spent 15/24 of this week's allowance on gummy bears. She can calculate that by multiplying 3/4 times 5/6. To do that, she multiplies the top numbers of each fraction together (3 times 5 equals 15), and to get the top number of the fraction. Then she multiplies the bottom numbers together (4 times 6 equals 24) to get the bottom number.</span>
It is less than 324.21, because as you can see, all the numbers are equal until you get to the 0 & 1, and 1 is greater than 0
For part a: you just need to find how far the vertex has been moved from the origin, or the point (0,0). As the vertex is at the point (2,-3), it has been translated right 2 horizontally and down 3 vertically.
For part b: you use the info found in part a to create the equation in the form of y=A(x-h)^2+k. In this case, A =1, so you can ignore it. The h value is the horizontal distance the vertex has been moved. Since it has been moved right 2, this part of the equation would be (x-2). I know it seems like it should be plus 2, but values in parentheses come out opposite. For the k value, find the vertical shift, which is down3, or -3.
Now that you have h and k, substitute them back into the equation.
Your final answer for part b is: y=(x-2)^2 -3.
The answer is B because the slope is always the one multiplying the x and the 1 is negative because the equation is y-y1=m(x-x1)
