How can you determine the quadrant in which an ordered pair should be placed without plotting the point

1 answer:

4 0

Look at the negative symbols on the coordinate.

First quadrant: (x, y)
Second quadrant: (-x, y)
Third quadrant: (-x, -y)
Fourth quadrant: (x, -y)

Hope this helps!

Explain what the vertex of a quadratic equation is.<br> Where is it located?

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Parabolas always have a lowest point (or a highest point, if the parabola is upside-down). This point, where the parabola changes direction, is called the "vertex". If the quadratic is written in the form y = a(x – h)2 + k, then the vertex is the point (h, k). This makes sense, if you think about it.

A shopkeeper allows 15% discount on the marked price, still he manages to have 7% profit. How much high did he mark his goods ab

Answer: $25.9\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shopkeeper allows 15% discount on the marked price and still manages a profit of 7%

Suppose the marked price is $x$

So, the selling price is $(1-0.15)x=0.85x$

Suppose the cost price is $y$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.85x-y}{y}=7\%\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.85x}{y}-1=0.07\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.85x}{y}=1.07\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{0.85x}{1.07}\\\\\Rightarrow y=0.794x$

So, the percentage the shopkeeper marked his goods above cost price

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{x-y}{y}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x-0.794x}{0.794}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.2056}{0.794x}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow 25.89\%\approx 25.9\%$
