Answer: 1600batteries

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of inspected battery be y

2.5% of y = 40

5/2% of y = 40

Change 5/2% to fraction

5/200 × y = 40

5y/200=40

Cross multiply

5y= 40×200

5y=8000

y=8000÷5

y=1600

The total number of battery inspected is 1600.

Using the completing-the-square method, rewrite f(x) = x2 − 6x + 2 in vertex form.
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

f(x)=(x-3)^2-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form: f(x) = a(x-h)^2+k

x^2-6x+9+2=f(x)+9

(x-3)^2+2=f(x)+9

f(x)=(x-3)^2-7
