Answer:
vertex = (- 2, - 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
= - 
f(x) = 5x² + 20x - 16 is in standard form
with a = 5, b = 20 and c = - 16
= - 
= - 2
Substitute x = - 2 into f(x) for corresponding y- coordinate
f(- 2) = 5(- 2)² +20(- 2) - 16 = 20 - 40 - 16 = - 36
vertex = (- 2, - 36)
Its 249 because the difference 726-447 is 249
6j + 1/3n = 134...multiply by 3....18j + n = 402
1/3j + n = 31....multiply by 3....j + 3n = 93
the multiplying by 3 is optional...I just did it because it is easier to work with equations when there are no fractions.
18j + n = 402....multiply by -3
j + 3n = 93
----------------
-54j - 3n = - 1206 (result of multiplying by -3)
j + 3n = 93
----------------add
-53j = - 1113
j = -1113/-53
j = 21
j + 3n = 93
21 + 3n = 93
3n = 93 - 21
3n = 72
n = 72/3
n = 24
so Jasons collection (j) consists of 21 books and Nathans collection (n) consists of 24 books
Answer:
$578.30
Step-by-step explanation:
537.95(.075)= 40.35
$40.35 + $537.95 = $578.30
