Answer:
To answer items such as this, we directly substitute the a + 2 to the all the x's in the function such that,
f(a + 2) = (3 + a + 2) / (a + 2 - 3)
Simplifying the function generated above,
f(a + 2) = (5 + a) / (a - 1)
Answer:
The parent function is 
That Parabola's equation is 
Step-by-step explanation:
I can't really explain much, but the top equation is a formula for <em>all </em>equations for a parabola. h and k are the x and y-values of the vertex. a is, well, a.
How did I find the equation of the parabola? Simple. Since the vertex is on the origin, h and k are 0. Also, because it intercepts (2,4) and (1,1), a=1.
We want to find the product:

.
By the

, we distribute

over each of the three terms inside the parenthesis:

.
Multiplying the coefficients, and adding the exponents we get:

.

The small cup is the better deal, with the medium you get 4 more ounces but pay 15 cents an ounce with the small you pay 14 cents an ounce.
Hi <span>Camrynb10705oxknsv!
So let's take a look at the answers they give. A is 2.5 - 2.2 and all that is is switching the numbers so that isn't right. B they do addition instead of subtraction so that can't be right. C they do 2.2 + (-2.5) and when you add a negative number it's like subtraction because a negative number is under 0 and so your adding a number under 0 so you go down. So the answer is C.
If you need me to explain it different let me know. Hope this helps!</span>
