Answer:
It first starts with a dilation with a scale factor of 1/2. Than once the dilation is completed, a translation of 3 units to the right and 1.5 units down.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each can of corn costs $0.89
Work: 10.68/12 = .89
Therefore each can of corn costs 89 cents.
Subtract 5 to both sides so that the equation becomes -2x^2 + 6x - 1 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
x = [ -6 ± √((6)^2 - 4(-2)(-1)) ] / ( 2(-2) )
x = [-6 ± √(36 - (8) ) ] / ( -4 )
x = [-6 ± √(28) ] / (-4)
x = [-6 ± 2*sqrt(7) ] / (-4 )
x =3/2 ± -sqrt(7)/ 2
The answers are 3/2 + sqrt(7)/2 and 3/2 - sqrt(7)/2.
