Can you help me with my question please?
We can solve with a system of equations, and use c for the amount of cans of soup and f for the amount of frozen dinners.
The first equation will represent the amount of sodium. We know the (sodium in one can times the number of cans) plus (sodium in one frozen dinner times the number of dinners) is the expression for the total sodium. We also know the total sodium is 4450, so:
250c + 550f = 4450
The second equation is to find how many of each item are purchased:
c + f = 13
Solve for c in the second equation:
c = 13 - f
Plug this in for c in the first equation:
250(13-f) + 550f = 4450
3250 - 250f + 550f = 4450
300f = 1200
f = 4
Now plug the value for f into the second equation:
c + 4 = 13
c = 9
The answer is 9 cans of soups and 4 frozen dinners.
Ok, so we see in
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex is (h,k)
vertex is highest or lowest point
on one side, it goes up and other side it goes down
if a is positive, then it goes down then up
if a is negative, it goes up then down
we see
f(x)=2(x+3)^2+2
2 is positive
goes down then up
vertex is (-3,2)
so decreases from -infinity to -3 or ininterval
(-infinity,-3)
answer is first option
