Answer:
first find the area of the big rectangle = 12×14=168
area of the small unshaded rectangle =2×5×6=60
area of the shaded region = 168-60=108
Setting it up, we have Dan + Bret + Maria all saving 600.00
Dan = 2B
Bret = B
Maria = B+60
2B + B + B + 60 = 600
4B = 540
B = 135
Dan = 2(135) = 270
Brett = 135
Maria = 135 + 60 = 195
<span>Given the quadratic equation: f(x) = -2x^2 - 2x - 1, the axis of symmetry can be obtained by finding the line that divides the function into two congruent or identical halves. Thus, it should pass through the vertex and is equal
to the x-coordinate of the vertex. </span>
<span>Note that a quadratic
equation in standard form: y = ax^2 + bx + c, has the vertex located at (h,k) where, h = -b/2a and k is determined by evaluating y at
h. In this case, a = -2, b = -2, thus, h = -0.5, k = 0.5. Thus, the vertex is located at (-0.5, 0.5) and the axis of symmetry is at x = -0.5. </span>
A) The amount financed is the purchase amount less the down payment.
$2,574.54 -574.54 = $2000.00
B) The finance charge is the total of payments less the amount financed.
18*$121.00 -2000.00 = $178.00
C) The APR is calculated by a financial calculator to be 10.96%.
The product of this equation is 21 when the values of X and Y are imputed into the equation.
