So, let's solve it!
If he rose 450:
1200 + 450 = 1650
If he descended 150:
1650-150 = 1500
1500 feet, his net gain is -300 feet, his loss is 300 feet

A student raises her grade average from a 75 to a 90. what was the percent of increase in the student's grade average? round you
Leona [35]
Here are some formulas...
percent increase = (new number - original number) / original number...* 100
percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original number...* 100
============
a student raises her grade from a 75 to a 90....since it is going from a smaller number to a larger number, u have an increase
percent increase = (90 - 75) / 70....* 100
                           =   15/70   * 100
                           = 0.2142 * 100
                           = 21.42 rounds to 21.4%  increase
-------------------------
36.50 on sale for 32.12...since it goes from a larger number to a smaller number, u have a decrease
percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original * 100
                             = (36.50 - 32.12) / 32.12...* 100
                             = 4.38 / 32.12...* 100
                             = 0.1363...* 100
                             = 13.63 rounds to 13.6% decrease
------------------------------
23.5 to 21.2......this is a decrease
percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original...* 100
                            = (23.5 - 21.2) / 23.5....* 100
                            = 2.3 / 23.5....* 100
                            = 0.0979 * 100
                            = 9.79 rounds to 9.8% decrease

Y=x^2+bx+c;(-2,3)
Maksim231197 [3]
<h3>Answer:  b = 4 and c = 7.</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Comparing y = x^2+bx+c to y = ax^2+bx+c, we see that a = 1.

The vertex given is (-2,3). In general, the vertex is (h,k). So h = -2 and k = 3.

Plug those three values into the vertex form below

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1(x-(-2))^2 + 3

y = (x+2)^2 + 3

Then expand everything out and simplify

y = x^2+4x+4 + 3

y = x^2+4x+7

We see that b = 4 and c = 7.
