From the function y=x^2-4x+7
to complete the square we proceed as follows:
The vertex form is given by:
y=(x-h)^2+k
where (h,k) is the vertex:
thus from the function we shall have:
y=x^2-4x+7
c=(b/2a)²
c=(4/2)²=4
thus adding an subtracting 4 in the expression:
y=x^2-4x+4-4+7
y=(x-2)^2+3
thus the vertex will be:
(2,3)

(3) (2)
2 , 2 and 3 are the prime factors that make 12
2 x 2 x 3= 12
Or
2^2 x 3= 12
The answer to the question is b
The equation for inflation is
A = P*(1+r)^t
which is an exponential growth equation (if r > 0). If r < 0, then we have deflation.
where...
A = final price after t years
P = initial starting price
r = rate of inflation in decimal form
t = number of years
In this case,
A = unknown (we're solving for this)
P = 280 is the starting price
r = 0.05 is the decimal form of 5%
t = 2 years
We will plug these three pieces of info into the formula to get...
A = P*(1+r)^t
A = 280*(1+0.05)^2
A = 280*(1.05)^2
A = 280*(1.1025)
A = 308.70
Answer: 308.70 dollars
