first off, let's notice the parabola is a vertical one, therefore the squared variable is the x, and the parabola is opening upwards, meaning the coefficient of x² is positive.
let's notice the vertex, or U-turn, is at (-2, 2)

It would be 20% because if you take 100 times 1/5, which is the same as 100/5, you would get 20, which is 1/5.
It will take 22 truck loads to haul all the dirt away.
42×29.7×8=9912
9912÷425.5=42 truckloads
Solving
S = 3F - 24
for F gives
S + 24 = 3F
(S + 24)/3 = F
The best choice is the last one:
F = (S + 24)/3
Idk what you mean the answer is 15 students eat six pizzas
