Answer:
Incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the first number is x, and the second number is y. Given, the second number is 125% of the first number. So, the equation will be
y = 1.25 x
Or, y= 5/4x
Now, multiplying it with 4/5, we get, x= 4/5y
Or, x= 0.80 y
But, Brad is saying the first number must be 75% of the second number. But here we see that the first number is 80% of the second number. That's why Brad is incorrect.
First, we get ax^2+bx+c. Next, we know that the line of symmetry is -b/2a. Since we know that there is a maximum value, the parabola is facing downwards, so a is negative. For random numbers, we can say that a = -0.5 and b=-10 (b needs to be negative for -b/2a to equal -10), getting -0.5x^2-10x+c. Plugging -10 in for x (since -10 is the middle it is the max), we get -50+100=50. Since the maximum needs to be 5, not 50, we subtract 45 from the answer to get it and therefore make c = -45, getting -0.5x^2-10x-45
