Marcelina uses a blend of white corn and yellow corn to make tortilla chips at her restaurant. She needs to buy 50kg of corn in

total for her next order. White corn costs $0.30 per kilogram, yellow corn costs $0.15 per kilogram, and she wants to spend $12 dollars total. Here's a graph that shows a system of equations for this scenario where x is the amount of white corn she buys and y is the amount of yellow corn she buys.

Answer:

Option D. Marcelina spends less that the intended amount of money and buy less than enough corn

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x---->  is the amount of white corn she buys

y ---> is the amount of yellow corn she buys

we know that

She needs to buy 50 kg of corn in total

so

x+y=50 ----> equation A

She wants to spend $12 dollars total

so

0.30x+0.15y=12 ----> equation B

The solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (30,20)

That means

Marcelina needs to buy 30 kg of white corn and 20 kg of yellow corn

we have the ordered pair F(15.15)

That means

15 kg of white corn and 15 kg of yellow corn

therefore

Total kg of corn bought is

15+15=30\ kg

30\ kg < 50\ kg

Total spend is

0.30(15)+0.15(15)=\$6.75

\$6.75

therefore

Marcelina spends less that the intended amount of money and buy less than enough corn

Write the quadratic equation y= x^2 -6x = 7 in vertex form.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

(x - 3)² - 16 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Subtract 7 from both sides

x² - 6x + 7 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 1, b = - 6

Given a quadratic in standard form then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x_{vertex} = - \frac{b}{2a} = - \frac{-6}{2} = 3

Substitute x = 3 into the equation for y

y = 3² - 6(3) - 7 = 9 - 18 - 7 = - 16 ⇒ (h, k) = (3, - 16)

y = (x - 3)² - 16 = 0
