Statement 1 : Gail bought a $45 sweater at 1/3 off.

<u>Discount in Sweater Purchase:</u>

\frac{1}{3} \; of \; 45 = \frac{1}{3} \times 45 \; = \;\frac{45}{3} =\$15

Statement 2: Gail can use her 12% employee discount once a week and used her discount on the suit priced at $140.

Discount in Suit Purchase:

12\% \; of \; 140 =\frac{12}{100}  \times  140 = 0.12 \times 140 = \$16.8

Conclusion:

<u>Discount in Suit Purchase ($16.8) is greater than Discount in Sweater Purchase ($15)</u>

Vertex and axis of symmetry f(x)=2x^2-16x-17<br> PLEASE HELP
Law Incorporation [45]
The vertex is at (4, -49) and the axis of symmetry is at x= 4.

To find the vertex of this equation, use this method: ( \frac{-b}{2a})

a=2
b=-16

This will help get your x value and the axis of symmetry. To find the y value of the vertex, insert the x value, 4 to get your y value, -49.

Why must fire extinguishers be routinely maintained?
eduard

Answer: the answer would be To make sure they remain effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

It wouldn't be to make sure they are up to code because fire extinguishers do not use code, code is used in electronics. For the second option and the last option it would not be this because they could be trained in a practice instead of using the real thing.
