ANSWER

EXPLANATION
The equation of a parabola in factored form is

where 'a' is the leading coefficient and 'm' and 'n' are the zeros.
From the question, the zeros of the parabola are 6 and −5.
This implies that,

We plug in these zeros to get:

If (-1, 3) is a point on the graph of this parabola,then it must satisfy its equation.
We substitute x=-1 and y=3 to obtain:

The first choice is correct.
Answer:
the original price of the book is $20
Step-by-step explanation:
sometimes in a question, they put things in the question that don't actually help us get to the answer. usually we ignore it, but i'm going to list them out just to help you a bit more.
<u>Things that are useless:</u>
- his name is Jarred (his name could be gary, it doesn't affect us getting the answer)
- he went to a bookstore (he could've gone to the library, it wont affect us getting to the answer)
- the book is softcover (it could be any type of book, wont affect us getting to the answer)
- the item is a book (it could be anything that he bought, wont affect us getting to the answer.)
<u>Things that are helpful:</u>
- the book was on sale (helps us know that the price was reduced)
- the book was on sale 10% (helps us know how much it was reduced by)
- he spent $18 for the reduced price (helps us know how much he spent)
Ok, now that we know those, let's work on the question.
let b be the original book price
we need to find 10% so we have to use 90% (because 100 - 10 = 90)
if we needed to find 20% we would use 80% (because 100 - 20 = 80)
and so on.
90% of b = 18 (90% of the og. book price equals 18)
90/100 × b = 18 (write a correct equation and make the percent a fraction)
9/10 × b = 18 (simplify both sides of the equation)
9 × b = 180 (multiply both sides of the equation to get rid of fraction)
b = 20 (divide both sides of the equ. to get b by itself)
the original price of the book is $20
hope this helped :D
