A computer costs $800. It loses ¼ of its value every 2 years after it is purchased. How much will the computer be worth in 6 years?

The computer will be worth $200.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quarter of $800 is $200, so the computer loses $200 dollars in value every two years. Since 6÷2 is 3, you multiple $200 by 3 to get $600. You then subtract $600 from $800 and get $200.

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.
