A jar contains 0.25 liter of apple juice and 0.30 liter of grape juice. Melissa poured 0.75 liter of pineapple juice into the jar. She then drank 0.20 liter of the mixture

That's the actual full question.

A jar contains 0.25 liter of apple juice and 0.30 liter of grape juice. Melissa poured 0.75 liter of pineapple juice into the jar. She then drank 0.20 liter of the mixture.

Part A: Write an expression to represent the total amount of juice left in the jar. (5 points)

Part B: Simplify the expression and identify which property is used in each step. (5 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is:

if the eqn of the parabola is f(x) = (x-4)(x+2), we need to mult. this out to find the coordinates of the vertex.

then f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8, and f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8.

one way in which you can find the vertex is to calculate x = -b / (2a).   here, that comes to

        )

x = = 1.   f(1) = 1^2 - 2(1) - 8 = - 9.   vertex is at (1, -9).

        2(1) 

find another point on the curve:   let x=0, for which y=-8.   then (0, -8) is on the curve.   plot the vertex and this point and draw a smooth parabola thru both.

hope this
