Answer: £5000

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12% decrease = £600

Then (100- 12)% = x

100% = x

0.12x = 600 x 0.88

0.12x = 528

Divide both sides by 0.12

£4400

Therefore, original price before 12% decrease was £5000

He made 3 1/4 total cups of fruit punch

to get this answer you would add 1/4 + 3/4 = 1 cup

then 1 + 2 = 3

finally adding 3 + 1/4 = 3 1/4 total cups of fruit punch

Which is the vertex of x^2 + 10x = - 17?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

(-5, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabolas always have a lowest point (or a highest point, if the parabola is upside-down). This point, where the parabola changes direction, is called the "vertex". If the quadratic is written in the form y = a(x – h)2 + k, then the vertex is the point (h, k).

x^2 + 10x = - 17

x^2+10x+17=0

x^2+2*5x+25 - 8=0

(x+5)^2-8=0

h=-5, k= -8

vertex is (-5, -8)

If -2x +7 = 3x - 8, then x =
Anna11 [10]
-2x +7 = 3x - 8

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

-2x -3x+ 7 = -8

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

-2x -3x = -8 -7

Collect like terms

-5x = -15

Divide both sides of the equation by -5

x=3
