Answer: 10%

50 is half of 100, so if it decreases 5 dollars from 50, then it has to be 10% of a decrease, or discount.

Hope this helps!

Part A
We have $f\left(x\right)=\left(x+3\right)^2-1$ . To solve for the x-intercept, we set f(x) equal to 0. That is
$\left(x+3\right)^2-1=0$

$\left(x+3\right)^2=1$

Take the square root of both sides,
$x+3=1$

$x=-2$

The x-intercept is (-2,0).

To solve for the y-intercept, we set x=0. That is
$y=\left(0+3\right)^2-1=3^2-1=9-1=8$

The y-intercept is (0, 8)

The coordinates of the optimum point are actually the vertex which can be easily seen from the vertex form equation given above. The minimum point is (-3, -1).

Part B.
We have $g\left(x\right)=-2x^2+8x+3$ .
Factor out -2
$=-2\left(x^2-4x\right)+3$

Complete the square
$=-2\left(x^2-4x+4\right)+3-2\left(4\right)$

Simplify
$g(x)=-2\left(x-2\right)^2-5$

Part C
We have $h\left(t\right)=-16t^2+28t$ .
