(40 - x) represents A. the number of undamaged cards
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Maria has a total of 40 cards out of which x number of cards are damaged so 40 - x cards are undamaged. The value of an undamaged card is 5 dollars whereas every damaged card has a value of 3 dollars.
Step 2; We need to determine what each term in equation 5(40−x)+3x represents. The equation will give us how much total value Maria's card collection has.
The first term 5 (40 - x) signifies the total value of the undamaged cards in the deck where (40 - x) equals the total number of undamaged cards.
The second term represents the total value of the undamaged cards.
So the second factor of the first term i.e (40 - x) represents the amount of undamaged cards in her collection.
The answer is b. x=77, y=63

The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola. The axis of symmetry<span> of a parabola is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two congruent halves. The </span>axis of symmetry<span>always passes through the vertex of the parabola . The x -coordinate of the vertex is the equation of the </span>axis of symmetry<span> of the parabola.</span>
Answer:



Step-by-step explanation:
given ,
equation y=ax²+bx+c
passing through points (1,6), (3, 20), and (−2,15).
then these points will satisfy the equation
at (1,6)
y = a x²+b x+c
6 = a(1)² + b (1) + c
a + b + c = 6------(1)
at (3 , 20)
y = a x²+b x+c
20 = a(3)² + b (3) + c
9 a + 3 b + c = 20------(2)
at (−2,15)
y = a x²+b x+c
15 = a(-2)² + b (-2) + c
4 a -2 b + c = 15------(3)
solving equation (1),(2) and (3)
a = 6 - b - c
9 (6 - b - c)+ 3 b + c = 20
6 b + 7 c = 34-------(4)
4 (6 - b - c) -2 b + c = 15
2 b + c = 3----------(5)
on solving equation (4) and (5)
