12.5%, every 500 years you take away half of the substance (50%) -> 25% -> 12.5%
you divide your number 3 times because 1500/500=3

So this problem is asking you to plug numbers in for t. 0 1 2 3 4 5. So your first equation would be 2× 0+8 and you would get 8 so for 0 toppings you would pay 8 dollars then graph this over 0 up 8. Next equation 2×1+8 is 10. Graph. over 1 up 10. Next 2×2+8 is 12. Graph. Over 2 up 12. next 2× 3 + 8 is 14. Graph. Over 3 up 14. Next 2×4+8 is 16 so over 4 up 16. Last 2×5+8 is 18 so over 5 up 18. Your Y-intercept is the dot that is on the y axis and in this problem that is 8. This means if you buy 0 toppings you will spend 8 dollars.

The element you add is $b^2 / 4a$

Remember that

$a x^2 + bx +c \\= a ( x^2 +(b/a)x ) + c$

So, in order to complete the square you add $(b/2a)^2$

But when you multiply times $a$ you get

$b^2 / 4a$
