First, simplify the expression of the function 
highlighting the perfect square:
Then find the vertwx of parabola. When x=2, f(2)=2 and the coordinates of the vertex are (2,2). The axis of symmetry passes through the vertex and is parallel to the y-axis. Therefore, its equation is x=2 (see attached graph for details).
Answer: x=2.
The large box is 45 pounds and the small is 20 pounds
Answer:
6/24
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage decrease = 30% × 25
New value = 25 - Percentage decreaseNew value =
25 - Percentage decrease =
25 - (30% × 25) =
25 - 30% × 25 =
(1 - 30%) × 25 =
(100% - 30%) × 25 =
70% × 25 =
70 ÷ 100 × 25 =
70 × 25 ÷ 100 =
1,750 ÷ 100 =
17.5
Absolute change (actual difference) =
New value - 25 =
17.5 - 25 =
- 7.5
