Each complete cleaning requires 6 drops of cleaner. Let's convert that to ml:
6 drops 1 ml 3 ml cleaner
----------- * ------------- = ------------------- = 0.3 ml cleaner per cleaning
20 drops 10 cleanings
Recall that 1 bottle contains 30 ml cleaning fluid.
How many cleanings is one bottle of fluid good for?
1 bottle 0.3 ml
----------- = ----------- => x = 100 cleanings/bottle
x 30 ml
Subtract 3x from both sides:
-6y = -3x + 6
divide both sides by -6 to get y by itself:
y = 1/2x - 1
function notation is rewriting y as a function:
f(x) = 1/2x -1
Find the vertex: -4x^2 + 16x - 7
Vertex = ( x, f(x)).
x = -b/2a
x = -16/2(-4)
x = -16/-8
x = 2
f(x) = -4x^2 + 16x - 7
Let x = 2
f(2) = -4(2)^2 + 16(2) - 7
f(2) = -4(4) + 32 - 7
f(2) = -16 + 32 - 7
f(2) = 16 - 7
f(2) = 9
Vertex = (2, 9)
A=49.44
B=232.91
C=-283.29
(49.44-232.91)+(-283.29)=-466.76
-283-(232.91+49.44)=-565.35
