Divide the percentage by 100. EXAMPLE: 50% = 0.5

The way that you change a percentage into a decimal is by removing the percent sign off of it (so for example, you have 100%, take off the percent sign and you're left with 100). Next, you move a decimal point 2 places to the left (so you now just have a plain 100--> one decimal step: 10.0--> two decimal steps: 1.00). That is how you transform a percent to a decimal.

Hope this helps you out, mi amigo! :3

given the functions f(x)=4x^2-1, g(x)=x^2-8x+5, and h(x)=-3x^2-12x +1, rank them from least to greatest based on their axis of s

Lesechka [4]

The formula for axis of symmetry is -b/2a.

For f(x):
0/2(4)
0/8
Axis of symmetry= 0

For g(x)
-(-8)/2(1)
8/2
Axis of symmetry= 4

For h(x)
-(-12)/2(-3)
12/-6
Axis of symmetry= -2

Order from least to greatest: -2, 0, 4

Final answer: h(x), f(x), g(x)

Simplify the Expression. [4 + (-8)] x (-7) A.) -84 B.) -28 C.) 28 D.) 84

Helen [10]

C. 28 is the answer
Staring from the brackets we have 4+(-8) we can open the parentheses and get 4-8 and get -4. Now we can open the -7 up and now we have
-4 * -7 = 28
Hope this helps!
