To answer this, you multiple 1000 by 7,234 because each box comes with 1000, so if there are 7234 boxes, then you multiple the stirrers by the # of boxes
X^2 -6x -8 is a parabola in ax^2 + bx + c form
The axis of symmetry is -b/2a = 3
The vertex is (3,f(3)) = (3,-17)
The x-intercept is f(x)= 0 where x=-1.123, 7.123
Graphing: it opens upwards
Answer: -5/12
Step-by-step explanation: Before multiplying two fractions together by multiplying across their numerators and multiplying across their denominators, you should always try to cross-cancel as your first step.
So in this problem, the 2 and 8 cross-cancel to 1 and 4.
Also, watch out for your signs. In this problem we have a negative times a positive so we know that our answer will be negative.
Now we can multiply across the numerators and across the denominators.
So we have 5 · 1 which is 5 and 4 · 3 which is 12.
So our answer is -5/12.
Be very careful with your signs!
1st card : 3 steps forward
