The equation for a quadratic is as follows:
y = ax^2+bx+c
The first variable “a” determines whether the parabola opens up or down
The squared allows the equation to look like the parabola swoop when graphed.
The c term is the constant term
Answer:
option D
D. x = 5, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question two equation,
Equation 1
5.3x + y = 28.5
Equation 2
4.2x + 3.1y = 27.2
rearrange equation 1 in terms of y
y = 28.5 - 5.3x
Substitute the value of y in equation 2
<h3>4.2x + 3.1(28.5 - 5.3x) = 27.2</h3>
4.2x + 88.35 - 16.43x = 27.2
4.2x - 16.43x = 27.2 - 88.35
-12.23x = -61.15
x = 61.15/12.23
x = 5
put value of x in any of the equation
<h3>5.3(5) + y = 28.5</h3>
y = 28.5 - 26.5
y = 2
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Eight should be the answer you are looking for.
In this question there are several important information's provided. Using these information's it is easy to get the answer to the question asked. Firstly it is already informed that the insurance agent gets a commission of 15% of the policy price for every policy sold. The agent sells a policy of $300.
Now we can write the equation as:
15% of $300 = [(15/100) * 300] dollars
= ( 15 * 3) dollars
= 45 dollars
So the agent gets a commission of $45 for selling a policy worth $300
