<h2>The graph of y = ax^2 + bx + c </h2><h2>A nonlinear function that can be written on the standard form </h2><h2>ax2+bx+c,where a≠0 </h2><h2>All quadratic functions has a U-shaped graph called a parabola. The parent quadratic function is </h2><h2> y=x2 </h2><h2> The lowest or the highest point on a parabola is called the vertex. The vertex has the x-coordinate </h2><h2>x=−b2a </h2><h2>The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum or minimum value of the function. </h2><h2>a > 0 parabola opens up minimum value </h2><h2>a < 0 parabola opens down maximum value </h2><h2> A rule of thumb reminds us that when we have a positive symbol before x2 we get a happy expression on the graph and a negative symbol renders a sad expression. </h2><h2>The vertical line that passes through the vertex and divides the parabola in two is called the axis of symmetry. The axis of symmetry has the equation </h2><h2>x=−b2a </h2><h2>The y-intercept of the equation is c. </h2><h2> When you want to graph a quadratic function you begin by making a table of values for some values of your function and then plot those values in a coordinate plane and draw a smooth curve through the points.</h2>

What is the unknown fraction? <br><br>6/10 + ____ = 62/100

sergeinik [125]

The answer is 2/100 or 1/50!

6/10 is equivalent to 60/100.
62/100 - 60/100 = 2/100 = 1/50

So, 6/10 + 1/50 = 62/100
6/10 + 2/100 = 62/100

(Use 1/50 because that’s the simplified answer!)

I hope this made sense! Good luck!

Nathan earns $1500 a week. Calculate his new weekly wage if he receives a pay rise of 20%

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$1800

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approanch

An easy way to calculate one's salary after they recive a raise is to, convert the percent that one's salary is increased into a decimal; divide the percent by 100. Then multiply the increase as a decimal by the original salary, to attain the amount the salary is raised by. Finally add the amount the salary is raised by to the original salary to find the new salary. A quicker way to do this is to convert the percent by the salary is increased into a decimal. Then add 1 to that number. Finally one will multiply that number by the original slary and get the new salary.

2. Solving

Original salary; 1500

Raise; 20%

<u>a. convert the raise as a percent into a decimal, then add 1</u>

20% = 0.2

0.2 + 1 = 1.2

<u>b. multiply the number by the original salary</u>

1.2 * 1500

1800

Choose the symbol that correctly compares the fractions below.<br> 8/9 ? 1/9

gladu [14]

Answer:

Which means that this equation is also true: 8/9 > 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 8/9 less than 1/9? Is 8/9 smaller than 1/9? These are the same questions with one answer.

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

8/9 = 0.889

1/9 = 0.111

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.889 is not less than 0.111.

Therefore, 8/9 is not less than 1/9 and the answer to the question "Is 8/9 less than 1/9?" is no.
