y = ( 3 * x ) - 2.
This is because the card costs for 3 $ and should be multiplied by the number of total cards she buys in that particular day. So 3 * x.
Now as she has got a 2$ off coupon, whatever the total is she gets 2 dollars off on that price. So we will subtract 2 at that time. FInally all this summed up would be equal to y.
Answer:
- 21
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum value occurs at the vertex of the function
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
To obtain this form use the method of completing the square
Given
f(x) = x² - 6x - 12
add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 6x
f(x) = x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 - 9 - 12
= (x - 3)² - 21
with vertex = (3, - 21 )
The minimum is the value of k, that is minimum value = - 21
If you have 3 1/2 cups of something and you want to find how many 1/4 cups there are the you just need to divide 3 1/2 by 1/4

the answer is 14, there are 14 1/4 cups in 3 1/2 cups.
hope I helped :)
he is wrong because 0.1 is also 0.10 greater than 0.09
