Standard quadratic equation .. y = a x^2 + b x + c
<span>parabola 'a' not equal to zero </span>
<span>a<0 parabola opens downward </span>
<span>a>0 parabola opens upward </span>
<span>when |a| >>0 the parabola is narrower </span>
<span>when |a| is close to zero , the parabola is flatter </span>
<span>when the constant is varied it only effects the vertical position of the parabola , the shape remains the same</span>

Answer:
18 white flowers
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given ratio:
Red : White
2 : 3
If Sally used 12 red flowers, how many white flowers will she use?
Let the number of white flowers Sally uses be represented by x
This is calculated as:
2/3 = 12/x
Cross Multiply
2 × x = 3 × 12
x = 3 × 12/2
x = 18 white flowers
Therefore, if Sally used 12 red flowers, the number of white flowers will she use is 18 white flowers.
Answer:
{2, 8}
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find x for ...
15 = 4|x -5| +3
12 = 4|x -5| . . . . subtract 3
3 = |x -5| . . . . . . divide by 4
±3 = x -5 . . . . . . show the meaning of absolute value
5 ±3 = x = {2, 8} . . . . . add 5
The values of x for which f(x) = 15 are 2 and 8.
Answer:
5.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the interest rate, use the equation: I = prt
I = Interest = $6,600
p = principal = $15,000
r = rate = unknown
t = time = 8 years
Now plug the numbers into the equation.
6,600 = 15,000 * r * 8
6,600 = 120,000 * r
Now isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by 120,000.
0.055 = r
Now change the rate to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 digits to the right.
5.5% = r OR r = 5.5%
