The vertex of the graph of y = (x - 1)2 - 5 is (1,-5)
Tripling the recipe would require 3 times 1 1/3 cups of sugar, or 4 cups:
3(4/3) = 4
So if Karen already has 1/2 cup of sugar on hand, she needs (4 - 1/2), or 3 1/2, more cups of sugar to triple the recipe. (answer)
5( 3u - 4) + 6
15u - 20 + 6....
Hope I'm right !!!
The decimal equivalent is -4.666....
In order to find this, we need to start by just taking the whole number for itself.
-4.
Now we have to handle the fraction version. In order to do that, we need to do the division and turn into a decimal.
2/3 = .666...
Now we simply put them together and get our answer.
-4.666...
