Notice the picture below

the directrix is above the focus point, meaning the parabola is vertical and is opening downwards

now, "p" is the distance from the vertex to the focus point or the directrix, so that means, the vertex is between those two fellows, over the axis of symmetry, x = -2, since "p" is 1 unit, that puts the vertex at -2,5

since the parabola is opening downwards, that means the "p" value is negative, so is -1

\bf \textit{parabola vertex form with focus point distance}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
(y-{{ k}})^2=4{{ p}}(x-{{ h}}) \\\\
\boxed{(x-{{ h}})^2=4{{ p}}(y-{{ k}}) }\\
\end{array}
\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
{{ p}}=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\
\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\

\bf \begin{cases}
p=-1\\
h=-2\\
k=5
\end{cases}\implies (x-(-2))^2=4(-1)(y-5)
\\\\\\
(x+2)^2=-4(y-5)\implies 
-\cfrac{1}{4}(x+2)^2=y-5
\\\\\\
\boxed{-\cfrac{1}{4}(x+2)^2+5=y}

elect the correct answer. graph A graph B graph C graph D A credit card company uses these rules to calculate the minimum amount
laila [671]

The graph that correctly shows the minimum amount due for a credit amount (x)  is graph B.

<h3>How to determine the graph with the minimum amount due?</h3>

First of all, we would assign a variable to the different amount of money as follows:

  • Let x be the credit amount.
  • Let y be the minimum amount due.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

For a bill of less than $100, the entire amount is due:

0 ≤ x < $100, therefore, y = x

For a bill of at least $100 but less than $500, the minimum due is $100: $100 ≤ x < $500, therefore, y = 100

For a bill of at least $500 but less than $1,000, the minimum due is $300:

$500 ≤ x < $1000, therefore, y = $300

For a bill of $1,000 or more, the minimum due is $500:

Since the credit limit is equal to $2000, we have $1000 ≤ x < $2000 and y = $500

In conclusion, the graph that correctly shows the minimum amount due for a credit amount (x)  is graph B.
