Answer:

the cost each of one cherry pie and one lemon meringue pie is 9 and $12 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the cost of one cherry pie and the lemon meringue pie is shown below:

Let us assume the cherry pie be x

And, the lemon meringue pie be y

So according to the question

x + 5y = $69

5x + 7y = $129

Now multiply by 5 in the equation 1

5x + 25y = $345

5x + 7y = $129

18y = $216

y = $12

And, x would be

x + 5($12) = $69

x = $9

Hence, the cost each of one cherry pie and one lemon meringue pie is 9 and $12 respectively

Suppose a parabola has an axis of symmetry at x=-5, a maximum height of 9, and passes through the point (-7,1). Write the equati
Nutka1998 [239]

the parabola has maximum at 9, meaning is a vertical parabola and it opens downwards.

it has a symmetry at x = -5, namely its vertex's x-coordinate is -5.

check the picture below.

so then, we can pretty much tell its vertex is at (-5 , 9), and we also know it passes through (-7, 1)


\bf ~~~~~~\textit{parabola vertex form} \\\\ \begin{array}{llll} y=a(x- h)^2+ k\qquad \leftarrow \textit{using this one}\\\\ x=a(y- k)^2+ h \end{array} \qquad\qquad vertex~~(\stackrel{}{ h},\stackrel{}{ k}) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} h=-5\\ k=9 \end{cases}\implies y=a[x-(-5)]^2+9\implies y=a(x+5)^2+9


\bf \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} x=-7\\ y=1 \end{cases}\implies 1=a(-7+5)^2+9 \\\\\\ -8=a(-2)^2\implies -8=4a\implies \cfrac{-8}{4}=a\implies -2=a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill y=-2(x+5)^2+9~\hfill
