Answer:
-1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 is 0.375 in decimal form
To do these, start by looking at the "b" value -6.
divide it by 2
-6/2 = -3
now square this number
(-3)^2 = 9
this is what you need for the "c" value
there is only a 5 for the c value so add 4 to both sides of the equation. ( +4 = +4)
y +4 = x^2 -6x +5 +4
y +4 = x^2 -6x +9
y +4 = (x -3)^2
y = (x -3)^2 - 4
vertex ( 3, -4) upwards facing like a bowl, because the "a" value is positive. So the vertex is the minimum, lowest point on the graph.
Ok so in order to find the answer to this problem we are going to Multiply

and

.
Answer:
3/2 < x < 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the problem is ...
[tek]\dfrac{1}{x-2}<-2[/tex]
This will not be true for x-2 > 0 because that would make the left side positive. So, we must have x < 2, which makes the denominator negative. Multiplying by (x-2), we get ...
1 > -2(x -2)
1 > -2x +4
2x > 3 . . . . . . add 2x-1
x > 3/2
From above, we also have x < 2, so the solution set is ...
3/2 < x < 2
A) 1000/239 = 4.something
Ms. Ferguson could book the room for 4 nights
B) 6 x 239 = 1434
1450/1434 = 1.01
Ms Ferguson was off by 1%
C) 2075/1589 = 1.3058
The price increase was by 31%
D) 2075/1.3 = 1596.153
The price that was found was $1596.15
