Answer: (-2, -2) minimum

Step-by-step explanation: since the graph is going upwards and the arch of the graph is the lowest point in the graph, it will be a minimum point. to find this minimum point, look at what point the lowest point of the graph (for this graph, it is (-2, -2) )

Question:

pishuonlain [190]

There is no rectangle shown.

To find area, you multiply the rectangle’s length by its width. If it comes out to be a decimal and you need to round it by the nearest tenth, then you round it to the right of the decimal point.

Ex: 2.34 -> 2.3

Then, to find how much square inches are equal to square ft, you divide the square inches by 12, I believe.

Help me please owo due today

Allushta [10]

Answer:

the area of the mat = total area added minus the original area of the water color painting.

length of the mat is:

L = 21 in + 3 in + 3 in because 3 in is added to each side

L = 27 inwidth of the mat is:w = 11 in + 3 in + 3 inw = 17in

Area mat = (27 in x 17 in) - ( 21 in x 27 in)

area mat = 108 sq in is the area of the mat

Answer:

$\textsf{A)} \quad x=-2, \:\:x=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$\textsf{B)} \quad \left(\dfrac{1}{4},-\dfrac{81}{8}\right)=(0.25,-10.125)$

C) See attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

$f(x)=2x^2-x-10$

To factor a <u>quadratic</u> in the form $ax^2+bx+c$ <em> , </em>find two numbers that multiply to $ac$ and sum to $b$ :

$\implies ac=2 \cdot -10=-20$

$\implies b=-1$

Therefore, the two numbers are -5 and 4.

Rewrite $b$ as the sum of these two numbers:

$\implies f(x)=2x^2-5x+4x-10$

Factor the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

$\implies f(x)=x(2x-5)+2(2x-5)$

Factor out the common term (2x - 5):

$\implies f(x)=(x+2)(2x-5)$

The x-intercepts are when the curve crosses the x-axis, so when y = 0:

$\implies (x+2)(2x-5)=0$

Therefore:

$\implies (x+2)=0 \implies x=-2$

$\implies (2x-5)=0 \implies x=\dfrac{5}{2}$

So the x-intercepts are:

$x=-2, \:\:x=\dfrac{5}{2}$

The x-value of the vertex is:

$\implies x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}$

Therefore, the x-value of the vertex of the given function is:

$\implies x=\dfrac{-(-1)}{2(2)}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

To find the y-value of the vertex, substitute the found value of x into the function:

$\implies f\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=2\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^2-\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)-10=-\dfrac{81}{8}$

Therefore, the vertex of the function is:

$\left(\dfrac{1}{4},-\dfrac{81}{8}\right)=(0.25,-10.125)$

Plot the x-intercepts found in Part A.

Plot the vertex found in Part B.

As the <u>leading coefficient</u> of the function is positive, the parabola will open upwards. This is confirmed as the vertex is a minimum point.

The axis of symmetry is the <u>x-value</u> of the <u>vertex</u>. Draw a line at x = ¹/₄ and use this to ensure the drawing of the parabola is <u>symmetrical</u>.

Draw a upwards opening parabola that has a minimum point at the vertex and that passes through the x-intercepts (see attachment).

Mercury metal is poured into a graduated cylinder that holds exactly 22.5mL. The mercury used to fill the cylinder weighs 306.0

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

13.6 g/ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is found by mass divided by volume

The mass is 306.0 and the volume is 22.5 ml

density = 306.0/22.5 =13.6 g/ml

We have 3 sig figs which is correct
