Hello :
y=-x²+2x-4
y = -(x²-2x)-4
y = - (x²-2x+1)+1-4
y = - (x-1)² -3
the vertex is : (1 , -3 )

forsale [732]

Let D be dogs and C be cats

dogs, d, is initially five less than twice the number of cats, c

D + 5 = 2C

If she decides to add three more of each, the ratio of cats to dogs will be

D + 8 = 2C + 3

Could Bea's Pet Shop initially have 15 cats and 20 dogs?

Simply plug in the numbers

20 + 5 = 2(15)

This is clearly not true: 25 does not equal 30

Madeleine owes $36,000 to a private lender. The debt grows with 12% annual interest that compounds every week. How much will Mad

viva [34]

Answer:

A= $40584.28

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 36000

r = 12% = 0.12

n = 52 weeks

t = 1

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}\\$

$=36000(1 + \frac{0.12}{52})^{52 \times 1}\\\\=36000 (1.002307)^{52}\\\\=36000 \times 1.12734\\\\=40584.28$

Jamie received £26 pocket money last week. He spent it as follows: 10% on sweets, 25% on magazines 15% on games How much did Jam

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Total money left with Jamie = £13

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamie received pocket money = £26

He spent on sweets = 10% of total pocket money

Expense on magazines = 25% of the total money

Expense on games = 15% of the pocket money

Total expenditure on sweets, magazines and games = $\frac{10}{100}+\frac{25}{100}+\frac{15}{100}$

= $\frac{50}{100}$ Or 50% of the pocket money he received

Therefore, money left with Jamie = 50% of total money he received as pocket money

= $\frac{50}{100}\times 26$

= £13
