Answer:
6, - 36 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a parabola in standard form
y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
x = -
f(x) = x² + 12x ← is in standard form
with a = 1, b = 12, c = 0 , then
x = - = - 6
Substitute x = 6 into f(x) for corresponding value of y
f(6) = 6² + 12(- 6) = 36 - 72 = - 36
vertex = (6, - 36 )
The number of bags of chips sold is 8 and the number of packs of cookies sold is 12
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "a" be the number of bags of chips sold
Let "b" be the number of packs of cookies sold
Given that,
Cost of one bag of chips = $ 1.50
Cost of one pack of cookies = $ 1.25
Yesterday Abigail made $27 from selling a total of 20 bags of chips and packs of cookies
<em><u>So we can frame a equation as:</u></em>
Number of bags of chips sold + number of packs of cookies sold = 20
a + b = 20 ---- eqn 1
Also given that Abigail made $27 from selling
number of bags of chips sold x Cost of one bag of chips + number of packs of cookies sold x Cost of one pack of cookies = $ 27
1.5a + 1.25b = 27 ---- eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "a" and "b"</u></em>
From eqn 1,
a = 20 - b ---- eqn 3
Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2
1.5(20 - b) + 1.25b = 27
30 - 1.5b + 1.25b = 27
-0.25b = -3
<h3>b = 12</h3>Therefore from eqn 3,
a = 20 - b = 20 - 12 = 8
<h3>a = 8</h3><em><u>Thus we have:</u></em>
number of bags of chips sold = 8
number of packs of cookies sold = 12
