What is the vertex of the parabola with the equation y=1/5x^2 + 2x - 8

(-5,-13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the vertex of the parabola y=1/5x^2+2x−8.  

In this equation a=15  and b = 2.  

x= -2/2(1/5) = -2/2/5 = -2/1 * 5/2 = -5

Substitute −5 into the equation y=1/5x^2+2x−8

y=1/5(−5)^2+2(−5)−8

y=5−10−8

y=−13

The vertex is (−5 , −13)

you divide the cost ($15) by the quantity (6) to get your questions answer. the yo-yo costs $2.50. hope this : )!

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
