The answer is C.
In t=2.33p, the constant is 2.33 and it stands for "<span>The tomatoes cost $2.33 per pound"</span>
He first two are relatively easy. f(x-2) shifts it sideways (2 to the right in this case) f(x) -2 shifts it straight down (by 2)
f(2x) means replace x with 2x in the original 4(2x + 1)^2 − 3 if you factor out the 2 from the square root you get 4*sqr(2) ( x + ½)^2 - 3 which is now in the form a ( x -h)^2 + k the vertex is now at (-½, -3) (it used to be at (-1,-3) the "a" has gotten bigger, which makes the parabola "skinnier" (it goes up faster)
2•f(x) becomes 2*( 4(x + 1)2 − 3 ) = 8 (x+1)^2 -6 where is the vertex now? is this parabola fatter or skinnier than the original f(x) ?
Answer:
0.25 lbs for each sandwich.
Multiply the price by the 5% by turning the percent into a decimal.
5% = 0.05
45.90 x 0.05 = $2.295
Which can be rounded to 2.30 if needed.
