Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.
So:
a)

Where t is the number of weeks.
We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 =
31psi
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = ax² + bx + c
~~~~~~~
(4, - 2), (8, 6), (2, 0)
a(4²) + b(4) + c = - 2
a(8²) + b(8) + c = 6
a(2²) + b(2) + c = 0
16a + 4b + c = - 2 .............. <em>(1)</em>
64a + 8b + c = 6 ............... <em>(2)</em>
4a + 2b + c = 0 ................. <em>(3)</em>
a = 0.5 ; b = - 4 ; c = 6
<em>y = 0.5x² - 4x + 6</em>
Part A: (0, 6), (6, 0)
Part B: (0,6)
Part C: (6, 0)
Part D: [ 4, ∞ )
The greatest common factor of 21 and 40 is 1
D, you have to factor 3 out of 6x squared
