Explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:
-2m - 5m - 8 = 3 - 7 + m
Solving like terms
-7m - 8 = - 4 + m
Rearranging
-7m - 8 = m - 4
Since it is a parabola if there is no negative sign in front of the equation then it will have a minimum.
The standard form of a quadratic is ax^2+bx+c
When a>0 then the equation will have a minimum.
When a<0 then the equation will have a maximum.
Honestly I have no idea what to do after that. The k is throwing me off.
I'll start working on the rate...
15.25- 8.5 =6.75 6.75/ 3= 2.25 <(This is the rate)
8.5- 2.25= 6.25 6.25- 2.25= 4 <(Now I work my way to the y-intercept)
The y-intercept is 4 and the rate, which I found along the way, is 2.25.
I hope my answer satisfies you.
Answer:
14.3 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
18 1/6 gallons - 3 7/8 = 14.29
18 - 3 = 15
1/6 - 7/8 = 15 - 0.70833333333 = 14.2916666667
You need to be careful here if you use basic subtraction, simply as two minus would change to addition.
