The negative <em>a</em> tells us this is a downward opening parabola (upside down from the usual . I remember CUP - Concave Up Positive; here <em>a </em>is negative so not a cup, instead concave <em>down.</em> The same rule applies to second derivatives in calculus so memorize it now and use it later.
Answer: downward
Answer:
300 SUVs were sold.
210 Passenger cars were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S denote the amount of SUVs sold and let P denote the amount of passenger cars sold.
The total amount of vehicles sold was 510, so:
90 more SUVs were sold than passenger cars. In other words:
We know have a system of equations. We can solve it buy substituting the second equation into the first. Thus:
Combine like terms:
Subtract 90 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 2:
So, the 210 passenger cars were sold.
This means that 210+90=300 SUVs were sold.
And we're done!
