It is either 2/10 or .20 or 20%. idk know what your answers to choose from are
Answer:
$80 was on the gift card to begin with
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the initial money be x
Peter spent (1/2)*x
Peter added 10
<em>Before adding more money on the gift card Peter had x -(1/2)x left on the gift card which is (1/2)x</em>
<em>After loading more money Peter had (1/2)x + 10</em>
(1/2)x = 40 <em>(money spent by Peter)</em>
x/2 = 40
x = 80
Vertex form: y = a(x - h)² + k
h = 2
k = -1
y = 0
x = 5
0 = a(5 - 2)² - 1
0 = 9a - 1
a = 1/9
So your equation is a composite function. It means to plug 1.5 as x into g(x), then the answer you get for that, plug into h(x).
So.
g(1.5)=8-3(1.5)
=8-4.5
=3.5
Then.
H(3.5)=2x+5
=2(3.5)+5
=7+5=12
Your final answer is 12.
C
first set up an equation
$52+8n ≥ 144
bacause she can spend 144 or less
solve 144-52=92
92/8=11.5
