Answer:

y=(x-7)^2-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert the equation:

\displaystyle y=x^2-14x+48

Into vertex form, given by:

\displaystyle y=a(x-h)^2+k

Where <em>a</em> is the leading coefficient and (<em>h, k</em>) is the vertex.

There are two methods of doing this. We can either: (1) use the vertex formulas or (2) complete the square.

Method 1) Vertex Formulas

Let's use the vertex formulas. First, note that the leading coefficient <em>a</em> of our equation is 1.

Recall that the vertex is given by:

\displaystyle \text{Vertex}=\left(-\frac{b}{2a}, f\left(-\frac{b}{2a}\right)\right)

In this case, <em>a</em> = 1, <em>b</em> = -14, and <em>c</em> = 48. Find the <em>x-</em>coordinate of the vertex:

\displaystyle x=-\frac{(-14)}{2(1)}=7

To find the <em>y-</em>coordinate, substitute this value back into the equation. Hence:

y=(7)^2-14(7)+48=-1

Therefore, our vertex (<em>h, k</em>) is (7, -1), where <em>h</em> = 7 and <em>k</em> = -1.

And since we already determined <em>a</em> = 1, our equation in vertex form is:

\displaystyle y=(x-7)^2-1

Method 2) Completing the Square

We can also complete the square to acquire the vertex form. We have:

y=x^2-14x+48

Factor out the leading coefficient from the first two terms. Since the leading coefficient is one in this case, we do not need to do anything significant:

y=(x^2-14x)+48

Now, we half <em>b</em> and square it. The value of <em>b</em> in this case is -14. Half of -14 is -7 and its square is 49.

We will add this value inside the parentheses. Since we added 49 inside the parentheses, we will also subtract 49 outside to retain the equality of the equation. Hence:

y=(x^2-14x+49)+48-49

Factor using the perfect square trinomial and simplify:

y=(x-7)^2-1

We acquire the same solution as before, with the vertex being (7, -1).

Sarah has $20 saved. She gets $10 per week for her allowance, and she saves her allowance for the next 3 weeks. At the end of th
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Sarah will have $200 after 3 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

amount saved at the start = $20

amount saved per week = $10

number of weeks = 3

∴ Total savings from allowance  after 3 weeks = 10 × 3 = $30

Amount received in birthday money = $150

∴ Total amount saved after 3 weeks = amount saved at the start + Total savings from allowance  after 3 weeks + Amount received in birthday money

Total amount saved after 3 weeks = 20 + 30 + 150 = $200

Therefore Sarah will have $200 after 3 weeks

An account is opened with $7,595.96 with a rate of increase of 2% per year. After 1 year, the bank account contains $7,746.90. A
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

7595.96 × 0.02 × x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We start with $7595.96.

2. The interest is 2% or 0.02

3. Using this formula - P(Principle) x R(Rate) x T(Time) we pluck in the numbers.

4. 7595.96(Principle) x 0.02(Rate) x x(Time) = y(amount of money in the account after x years).
