Answer:

810

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the car = 100%.

Price is decreased by 10%- price now equal 90% of original.

Let original price = x

.9x=729

x=810

Check:

810 - .1(810) = 729

True!

1. Find the vertex of the following: y = (x - 4)(x - 10) *
horsena [70]

Answer:

1. (7,-9)

2. (4,0) and (10,0)

3. (3,0) and (-3,0)

4. (0,-9)

5. (-1,-32)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the vertex use the formula

\frac{-b}{2a}

First make the equation into a quadratic equation.

(x-4)(x-10)\\x^{2} -10x-4x+40\\x^{2} -14x+40

Now it is in the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

Now we can substitute the values

\frac{-(-14)}{2(1)} \\\frac{14}{2} \\7

Now we have 7 as our x value for the vertex we can substitute for y,

x^{2} -14x+40=y\\(7)^{2} -14(7)+40=y\\49-98+4=y\\y=-9

So the vertex for 1 is (7,-9)

To find the intercepts for 2 & 3, they basically already give it to you. You just need to find a value for x for x-4 that will equal it to 0 and another for x for x-10 that will equal it to 0.

x-4=0\\x=4\\\\x-10=0\\x=10

4 is slightly different but start the same,

(x-3)(x+3)\\x^{2}+3x-3x-9\\x^{2}-9

Here, c (9) just shows the graph move down 9, so the y intercept = 9.

5 is the same process as 1,

2(x-3)(x+5)\\2(x^{2}+5x-3x-15)\\2(x^{2}+2x-15)\\2x^{2}+4x-30

Vertex,

\frac{-(4)}{2(2)} \\\frac{-4}{4} \\-1

Substitute,

2x^{2}+4x-30\\2(-1)^{2}+4(-1)-30\\2-4-30\\-32

So the vertex is (-1,-32)

What is the image of the point (-1,-2)after a rotation of 180∘
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The image of the point is (1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • If the point (x, y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° counterclockwise, then its image is (-y, x)
  • If the point (x, y) rotated about the origin by angle 180° counterclockwise, then its image is (-x, -y)
  • If the point (x, y) rotated about the origin by angle 270° counterclockwise, then its image is (y, -x)

Let us use the rules above to solve the question

∵ The point (-1, -2) is rotated 180° counterclockwise about the origin

→ By using the 2nd rule above change the signs of x and y coordinates

∴ Its image is (1, 2)

∴ The image of the point is (1, 2)

HELP ME PLEASE I REALLY COULD USE IT BRAINLY GOES TO THE CORRECT ANSWER
Zanzabum

Answer:

y=x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the output (y), you have to add 8 to the input (x).

18 + 8 = 26

35 + 8 = 43

86 + 8 = 94

therefore, x+8=y
