Ben has $19 to spend. He spent $7.25, including tax, to buy a notebook. He needs to save $2.75 but he wants to buy a snack. If p

Ben can buy 4 bags of pretzels
Work:
19.00-7.25 = 11.75
11.75-2.75 = 9
9/0.50 =4.5
He can only buy 4 bags because you cannot buy half a bag

Given the quadratic equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20%3D%202%28x%20-1%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%2B%208" id="TexFormula1" tit

Answer:

Part 1) "a" value is $2$

Part 2) The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

Part 3) The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

Part 4) The vertex is a minimum

Part 5) The quadratic equation in standard form is $y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

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

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

if a > 0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

if a < 0 then the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The equation of the axis of symmetry of a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

so

$x=h$

In this problem we have

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$ -----> this is the equation in vertex form of a vertical parabola

The value of $a=2$

so

a>0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

so

$(h,k)=(1,8)$

The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

The equation of a vertical parabola in standard form is equal to

$y=ax^{2}+bx+c$

Convert vertex form in standard form

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$

$y=2(x^{2}-2x+1)+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+2+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Orwell building supplies' last dividend was $1.75. Its dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 38.00% for 2 years, af

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Estimated current stock price is $46.84

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the value of dividend payment $t_1, t_2 \& t_3$

Given $D_0=$1.75$

Yearly growth rate for next 2 years( $g_1$ )=38.00%

$D_1=\$1.75\times 1.38=\$2.42$

$D_2=\$2.42\times1.38=\$3.34$

Growth after two years will 6% indefinitely

$g_2=6\%=\dfrac{6}{100}=0.06$

$D_3=\$3.34\times1.06=\$3.54$

Estimate of current stock price is

$=\dfrac{D_1}{(1+r)}+\dfrac{D_2}{(1+r)^{2}}+\dfrac{\dfrac{D_3}{(r-g_2)}}{(1-r)^{3}}$

$=\dfrac{\$2.42}{(1.12)}+\dfrac{\$3.34}{(1.12)^{2}}+\dfrac{\dfrac{\$3.54}{(0.12-0.06)}}{(1.12)^{3}}$

=$46.84

Estimate of current stock price is =$46.84
