<span>There are 8 pints in 1 gallon, so 3 pints is 3/8 of a gallon </span>
Given: <span>y = x^2 + 6x - 5. Then a = 1, b = 6 and c = -5.
The x-coord. of the vertex is given by x = -b / (2a), which here is x = -6 / (2*1) = -3.
Use the given formula </span><span>y = x^2 + 6x - 5 to find the value of y when x = -3:
y = (-3)^2 + 6(-3) - 5 = 9 - 18 - 5 = -14
Then the vertex is (-3, -14).</span>
You need to set the correct porportion. x is the percent value you want to find. 100 is the maximum percentage. 420mg is what was taken out of the maximum 560mg dose.

You will cross multiple.

you will divide 42000 by 560


The complete answer will be: The patient took 75% of the 560mg dose of medication.
Answer is 36.
First use the negative exponent rule. When a number is put to the negative power it becomes a fraction
4/3^2
Now 3 to the second power is 9
4/1/9 (4 over 1/9)
Now multiply 4 x 9 (dividing by 1/9 is the same as multiplying by 9)
4 x 9= 36
