The answer is d. Is it right?
Remember that the vertex form of a parabola or quadratic equation is:
y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the "vertex" which is the maximum or minimum point of the parabola (and a is half the acceleration of the of the function, but that is maybe too much :P)
In this case we are given that the vertex is (1,1) so we have:
y=a(x-1)^2+1, and then we are told that there is a point (0,-3) so we can say:
-3=a(0-1)^2+1
-3=a+1
-4=a so our complete equation in vertex form is:
y=-4(x-1)^2+1
Now you wish to know where the x-intercepts are. x-intercepts are when the graph touches the x-axis, ie, when y=0 so
0=-4(x-1)^2+1 add 4(x-1)^2 to both sides
4(x-1)^2=1 divide both sides by 4
(x-1)^2=1/4 take the square root of both sides
x-1=±√(1/4) which is equal to
x-1=±1/2 add 1 to both sides
x=1±1/2
So x=0.5 and 1.5, thus the x-intercept points are:
(0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0) or if you like fractions:
(1/2, 0) and (3/2, 0) :P
The answer would be $35.70. 70% off would be $83.30 off of $119.
The measures of the angles are given to be x and y. Since y is 65 degrees less than the measure of angle x then, it can also be expressed as x - 65. The sum of the angles x and y should be 180 degrees as they are supplementary angles,
x + y = 180
x + (x - 65) = 180
The value of x is 122.5 and that of y is 57.5. Therefore, the measures of the angles are 122.5 and 57.5.
The answer is 9. there are 9 different combinations to choose from.
