It is worked out that if 4 ladles full of soup are given to each person, 120 people can be fed. the customers have complained in the past that the portions are too small. the cook decides to give 6 ladles full of soup to each person. how many people can now be fed soup?

Step-by-step explanation:

Per person available ladles full of soup

Total number of persons

Hence total number of ladles full of soup

Now per person available ladles full of soup

Total number of persons that can be fed

16.9 times 2.85

step-by-step explanation:

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1
