Answer: 5.99
Step-by-step explanation:
Ling spent $23.96 on cooking fuel for an upcoming camping trip.
Total number of cans of cooking fuel bought = 4
So, the cost of each can = dollars
Hence, Ling paid $5.99 for each can of cooking fuel.
The coefficient of the squared expression is 1/9
<h3>How to determine the coefficient of the squared expression?</h3>
A parabola is represented as:
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
Where:
Vertex = (h,k)
From the question, we have:
(h,k) = (-2,-3)
(x,y) = (-5,-2)
So, the equation becomes
-2 = a(-5 + 2)^2 - 3
Add 3 to both sides
1 = a(-5 + 2)^2
Evaluate the sum
1 = a(-3)^2
This gives
1 = 9a
Divide both sides by 9
a = 1/9
Hence, the coefficient of the squared expression is 1/9

4x3+2 = 14/3 —> 56/12
1x4+3 = 7/4 —> 21/12
56-21 is equal to 35/12
Which is 2 and 11/12
