Just retype the polynomial:

There is a line with slope 1/a going through the point (a, a²). find the equation of the line perpendicular to this line at this point. (don’t let this problem intimidate you! solve the problem as you would if i’d given you specific values. just use variables instead.)

Twenty-five percent of the customers entering a grocery store between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. use an express checkout. consider five randomly selected customers, and let x denote the number among the five who use the express checkout.

Select the quadratic that has root x = 8 and x = -5
