First off, we know that the y-interecept is 2, so there is going to be a plus two in the final equation. Now with the two answers input the number 8 to see which will output 6.
6 = 1/12(8)^(2) + 2
6 = 1/12(64) + 2
6 = 64/12 + 2
6 = 16/3 + 6/3
6 does not equal 22/3
6 = 1/16(8)^(2) + 2
6 = 1/12(64) + 2
6 = 64/16 + 2
6 = 4 + 2
6 = 6
This means that y = 1/16 x^2 + 2 is the correct answer. I hope that helps!
It is quite simple actually since it is simple division with the negative rules.
Just simplify the problem and use the negatives to determine if it is positive or negative. (two negatives equal a positive and one negative equals a negative)
Answer:
a) Given expression,
12% of 312
Since 100% of 312 = 312
⇒ 10% of 312 = 31.2,
⇒ 1% = 3.12
⇒ 2% = 2 × 3.12 = 6.24
So, 12% of 312 = 10% of 312 + 2% of 312
= 31.2 + 6.24
= 37.44
b) Given,
Total number of servings = 312,
The percentage of vitamin C in each serving = 12%,
Thus, the total amount of the vitamin C in 312 servings = 12% of 312


= 37.44,
Hence, the question can be asked about the total amount of the vitamin C.
