Answer:

7 melons

Step-by-step explanation:

So we first figure out the unit price of each melon by dividing 7.5 with 3 and you get $2.5 per melon. Then you divide 17.5 by 2.5 and then you should get 7.

It would be much easier if you attached a table. Anyway I know what you need to do. Just make an equation and put the numbers from the table given you in the task. And you'll solve it.

Find the center that eliminates the linear terms in the translation of 4x^2 - y^2 + 24x + 4y + 28 = 0.(-3, 2)(-3,- 2)(4, 0)

baherus [9]

Step 1

Given;

$4x^2-y^2+24x+4y+28=0$

Required; To find the center that eliminates the linear terms

Step 2

$\begin{gathered} 4x^2-y^2+24x+4y=-28 \\ 4x^2+24x-y^2+4y=-28 \\ Complete\text{ the square }; \\ 4x^2+24x \\ \text{use the form ax}^2+bx\text{ +c} \\ \text{where} \\ a=4 \\ b=24 \\ c=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} consider\text{ the vertex }form\text{ of a }parabola \\ a(x+d)^2+e \\ d=\frac{b}{2a} \\ d=\frac{24}{2\times4} \\ d=\frac{24}{8} \\ d=3 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} Find\text{ the value of e using }e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a} \\ e=0-\frac{24^2}{4\times4} \\ e=0-\frac{576}{16}=-36 \end{gathered}$

Step 3

Substitute a,d,e into the vertex form

$\begin{gathered} a(x+d)^2+e \\ 4(x+_{}3)^2-36 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} 4(x+3)^2-36-y^2+4y=-28 \\ 4(x+3)^2-y^2+4y=\text{ -28+36} \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

Step 4

Completing the square for -y²+4y

$\begin{gathered} \text{use the form ax}^2+bx\text{ +c} \\ \text{where} \\ a=-1 \\ b=4 \\ c=0 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} consider\text{ the vertex }form\text{ of a }parabola \\ a(x+d)^2+e \\ d=\frac{b}{2a} \\ d=\text{ }\frac{4}{2\times-1} \\ d=\frac{4}{-2} \\ d=-2 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} Find\text{ the value of e using }e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a} \\ e=0-\frac{4^2}{4\times(-1)} \\ \\ e=0-\frac{16}{-4} \\ e=4 \end{gathered}$

Step 5

Substitute a,d,e into the vertex form

$\begin{gathered} a(y+d)^2+e \\ =-1(y+(-2))^2+4 \\ =-(y-2)^2+4 \end{gathered}$

Step 6

$\begin{gathered} 4(x+3)^2-y^2+4y=\text{ -28+36} \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2+4=-28+36 \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2=-28+36-4 \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2=4 \\ \frac{4(x+3)^2}{4}-\frac{(y-2)^2}{4}=\frac{4}{4} \\ (x+3)^2-\frac{(y-2)^2}{2^2}=1 \end{gathered}$

Step 7

$\begin{gathered} \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1 \\ \text{This is the }form\text{ of a hyperbola.} \\ \text{From here } \\ a=1 \\ b=2 \\ k=2 \\ h=-3 \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is (-3,2)
