Answer:

A parabola opens downward with vertex at (1,20)  

The function that models the height of bag of candies is

The graph of this function is a parabola that opens downward.

To find the maximum height of the candy bag, we complete the squares to obtain the vertex form of the function.

Factor -16 to get;

Add and subtract the square of half the coefficient of t.

Factor the perfect square trinomial:

The vertex is (1,20)

This means the maximum height after 1 second is 20 feet.

A boy spent one-half of his money for a book and one-third of his money for a pen. The remaining $2.25 he saved. How much money
Tema [17]
Let his original money is x

So, \frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{3} + 2.25 = x
or, \frac{3x+2x+(6*2.25)}{6} = x
or, 5x + 13.5 = 6x
or, x = 13.5

So, he had $13.5 originaly. 

Thanks!
