Given points (5,102) (4,74) and (-2,-10)

We frame 3 equations using the given points

y=ax^2+bx+c

Plug in (5,102)

102=a(5)^2+b(5)+c

102 = 25a +5b + c -------> first equation

Plug in (4,74)

74=a(4)^2+b(4)+c

74 = 16a +4b + c----> second equation

Plug in  (-2,-10)

-10=a(-2)^2+b(-2)+c

-10 = 4a -2b + c -----> third equation

Now we use the three equation and solve for a,b,c

Use first and second equation and subtract it

102 = 25a +5b + c

-74 = -16a -4b - c

----------------------------------

28 = 9a + b  --------------> fourth equation

Subtract third equation from first equation

102 = 25a +5b + c

10  = -4a +2b - c

----------------------------------

112 = 21a + 7b --------------> fifth equation

Use fourth and fifth equation

28 = 9a + b

112 = 21a + 7b

Multiply the fourth equation by -7

-196= -63a -7b

112 = 21a + 7b

-----------------------

-84 = -42a

Divide by -42 on both sides

a= 2

Plug in the value of a=2 in fourth equation

28 = 9a + b

28 = 9(2) + b

28 = 18 + b ( subtract 18 from both sides)

b = 10

Plug in the values in third equation and find out c

-10 = 4a -2b + c

-10= 4(2) -2(10)+c

-10 = -12 + c

c= 2

We got a=2, b=10  and c=2

So equation becomes y=2x^2+10x+2

Find the amount financed and the finance charge in dollars for the following problem. Choose the right answers. Joshua Bennett p
Tpy6a [65]
25.83 x 6 = 154.98

If the purchased television is 245.95 and you make 6 payments that total in
154.98 dollars, the down payment will be what is left.

40.25% = 0.4025 

245.95 x 0.4025 = 98.99 

98.99 dollars off the original price.

245.95 - 98.99 = 146.96

The down payment made the total come to 146.96. 
146.96 + 154.98 = 301.94

The total amount paid is 301.94 including charge and down payment.
