x(b+c)+3(b+c) = (x+3)(b+c)
I believe it would be 482 mm^2 but I could be wrong
it would cost $964
and Im not sure about the volume
Equation of a parabola with vertex at (2, -1) is
y = a(x - 2)^2 - 1
Using the given point: -3 = a(4 - 2)^2 - 1
-2 = a(2)^2
4a = -2
a = -1/2
Therefore, required equation is
y = -1/2(x - 2)^2 - 1
y = -1/2(x^2 - 4x + 4) - 1
y = -1/2x^2 + 2x - 2 - 1
y = -1/2x^2 + 2x - 3
-1/4 will be ration because all fractions are rational
