so all those quadratics have their parent y = x², which has the graph of a "bowl".
and depending on the coefficient, the bowl is wider or not.
the larger the coefficient, the narrower the bowl, the smaller the coefficient, the wider the bowl.
well, 1/2 is smaller then 2, thus y = (1/2)x² is wider than y = 2x².
Complete the square by adding the square of half of four to both sides (4)
x^2+y^2-4y+4=4
x^2+(y-2)^2=4
The expression for the cost of the ABC Book Club is 2<em>x </em>+ 40. The expression for the cost of the Easy Book Club is 3<em>x</em> + 35. To find when the total charge for both book clubs is equal, the two expressions must equal each other. (<em>x </em>= the number of books read)
2<em>x </em>+ 40 = 3<em>x</em> + 35
Subtract 35 from both sides.
2<em>x </em>+ 5 = 3x
Subtract 2<em>x </em>from both sides.
5 = <em>x</em>
So, the total charge for each club is equal when 5 books are read.
Answer:
The total percent should be 7% I hope I helped:)
