To find the y-intercept you must substitute 0 into x.

F(x) = -(3x0) - (6x0) - 5
F(x) = -5

Therefore your y intercept is -5.

To find the axis of symmetry and the vertex we can use -b/2a to find the x value.

6/(-3x2) = 6/-6 = -1

Now we know the x value is -1 we can sub it into the equation to find the y value.

F(x) = -(3x-1) - (6x-1) - 5
F(x) = -(-3)- (-6) - 5
F(x) = 3 + 6 - 5
F(x) = 4

Therefore the y value is 4.

The axis of symmetry and vertex is (-1,4) and the y intercept is -5. Hope this helps.

Complete the square:

F(x) = -3x² - 6x - 5

F(x) = -3 (x² + 2x) - 5

F(x) = -3 (x² + 2x + 1 - 1) - 5

F(x) = -3 ((x + 1)² - 1) - 5

F(x) = -3 (x + 1)² + 3 - 5

F(x) = -3 (x + 1)² - 2

The y-intercept has x-coordinate equal to 0, so it corresponds to the value of F(0) :

F(0) = -3 (0 + 1)² - 2 = -3 - 2 = -5

The axis of symmetry is the vertical line running through the vertex of this parabola, so we'll come back to this.

The vertex of the parabola is (-1, -2). This represents the maximum value of F(x), which follows from

(x + 1)² ≥ 0   ⇒   -3 (x + 1)² ≤ 0   ⇒   -3 (x + 1)² - 2 ≤ -2

This is to say, every point on the parabola has a y-coordinate no greater than -2.

As mentioned earlier, the axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex, and its equation is determined by the x-coordinate of the vertex. Hence the AoS is the line x = -1.

Mr. Abaya goy P700,000 loan for the expansion of his business payable monthly in 4years. How much os the monthly amortization if
Vaselesa [24]

The monthly amortization is P23,511.63

<h2>Compound interest</h2>

The formula for calculating the compound interest is expressed as:

A = P(1+r/n)^t

whrere:

  • P is the principal = P700,000
  • r is the rate = 12% = 0.12
  • t is the time = 4 years
  • n = 12

Substitute the parameters

A = 700000(1+0.12/12)^{4(12)}\\&#10;A = 700,000(1.01)^{48}\\&#10;A =1,128,558.25

Calculate the monthly payment:

Monthly payment = \frac{1,128,558.25}{48} =23,511.63

Hence the monthly amortization is P23,511.63

Use a reference angle to write sec255∘ in terms of the secant of a positive acute angle. Do not include the degree symbol in you
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: sec (75) or csc (15)

Step-by-step explanation:

255 is in the 3rd quadrant where the secant is. Here, the tangent and cotangent is positive.

Reference angle for 255 is,

255 - 180 = 75 degrees.

Therefore, sec (255) = sec (75)

= csc (90 - 75) = csc (15)

Shawnee is putting $3,500 into an account earning 4.85% interest compounded quarterly. She estimates that it will take just over
Murljashka [212]
A=3,500×(1+0.0485÷4)^(4×11)
A=5,947.99

6000=3500(1+0.0485/4)^4t
Solve for t to know the time needed to reach 6000
Time=11.2
So the time needed is 11 years and 2 months

Shelly is a biologist who wants to determine the growth rate of a strain of bacteriaShelly puts 85 bacteria into a controlled en
erik [133]

The hourly growth rate of bacteria is 191.25

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that, initially Shelly put 85 bacteria and waits 4 hours

Amount of bacteria after 4 hours = 850

Now, number of bacteria increased = 850 bacteria – initial 85 bacteria  

Number of increased bacteria = 850 – 85 = 765 bacteria.

So, 765 bacteria were produced in 4 hours.

So hourly growth rate( per hour) can be found out by as follows:

\text { Hourly growth rate }=\frac{\text { number of bacteria increased }}{\text { number of hours }}

\text { Hourly growth rate }=\frac{765}{4}=191.25

Hence, the hourly growth rate of bacteria is 191.25
