Answer:

3

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

Here (h, k) = (2, - 4) , thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 4

To find a substitute (3, - 1 ) into the equation

- 1 = a(3 - 2)² - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )

3 = a

Thus

y = 3(x - 2)2 - 4 ← equation in vertex form

   = 3(x² - 4x + 4) + 4

    = 3x² - 12x + 12 + 4

     = 3x² - 12x + 16 ← equation in standard form

with coefficient of x² term = 3

A tank is being filled with water using an old
ElenaW [278]
<span>Found a similar problem with the given table. 

Elapsed time (Minutes)   0    10   20   30    40    50   60   70   80   90
Rate (gallons / minute)   42   40  38   35    35    32   28    20   19   10

Because the interval is every 10 minutes, we will use 10 and multiply it to each rate and get the sum total.

42*10 + 40*10 + 38*10 + 35*10 + 35*10 + 32*10 + 28*10 + 20*10 + 19*10 + 10*10
420 + 400 + 380 + 350 + 350 + 320 + 280 + 200 + 190 + 100
2,990

There will be a total of 2,990 gallons in the tank after 90 minutes. </span>

A truck was purchased for $25,000 in 2020 and each year its value decreases by 7%. How much will the truck be worth in
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$3787.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost price=  $25,000

Rate of decrease= 7%

Time= 2020-2026= 26 years

Let us apply the formula

A= P(1-r)^t

substitute

A= 25000(1-0.07)^26

A=25000(0.93)^26

A= 25000*0.1515

A= $3787.5

Hence the worth will be $3787.5
