9) yes, he is correct.
50% as a decimal would be 0.50
7% as a decimal would be 0.07
10)Buy and Bye has a greater discount because 30% as a decimal is 0.30 and 1/4 as a decimal is 0.25.
0.30 is bigger than 0.25 so it is a bigger discount
To simplify 3a + 2b - 8a + b, we need to combine like terms. Like terms are terms that share common variables. In this expression, the two variables are terms with a and terms with b. The terms that have a are 3a and -8a. The terms that have b are 2b and b. Now we can separate them and simplify.
(3a - 8a) + (2b + b)
-5a + 3b
Alright so, After rewriting the equation in a standard parabola, you get:
4 x 2 (y-0) =(x - 0)^2
Simplify it to get:
y= 0-p
y= 0-2
When you simplify that, your answer is:
y=-2
There you go folks, just saved you from reading that long paragraph of an answer the other guy has (I don't even think the answer is in there lol, I think he just wanted to help people solve it but still most people come here for answers)
41 good luck buddy!!!!!!!!
