Well, the cheap answer is
f(x) = -3| x - 1 | is really just f(x) = -3| x - 1 | + 0.
now, what value of "x" makes the absolute value expression to 0?
well, let's just set it to 0 and check,
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
so if "x" ever becomes 1, the | x - 1| will turn to 0, therefore, the vertex is at
f(x) = -3| (1) - 1 | + 0 --------------> ( 1, 0 )
40.8/8 = 5.1
5.1 gallons per container
hope this helps :D
Answer:
It's not much harder.
Calculus just requires that you put in a lot of work doing practice problems, which is something a lot of people aren't willing to do. And, it just involves a lot of memorization of formulas.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a )
probability of a computer being ancient = .99
probability of a computer being cutting-edge =.01
probability of two selected computer being old
= .99 x .99
= .98 or 98%
b )
probability of 5 selected computers being old
= .99 x .99 x .99 x .99 x .99
= .95 or 95%
c )
probability that at least one of the five selected computers is cutting-edge
= 1 - probability of 5 selected computers being old
= 1 - .95
= .05
5 %
