Answer:
2.38 lb bag = 4.99/lb 5.08 lb bag = 5.21/lb The 2.38 is the better buy
Step-by-step explanation:
11.88/2.38 = 4.99
26.47/5.08 = 5.21
4.99 is cheaper than 5.21 so the 2.38 lb bag is better buy
You can either find the roots of the quadratic formula using the quadratic formula two find the halfway point or you can use the formula t=-b/2a. Both of the two methods gives you the axis of symmetry (the t value for the vertex).
I will use the second method since I don't like using the quadratic formula.
t=-32/(2x-16)
t=1 second
After you find the t value for the axis of symmetry, you plug it into the formula of the graph to find the height.
h=-16+32+14
h=30 feet
Put one point at -10,6 and another at 6,-10

Stop and Shop has the better deal, as it is 0.24 cents for each apple if you divide 0.96 by 4, while Path Mark is 0.25 cents.
