The answer is 0.1 pounds. The works and steps are below.
Answer:
x^2 - 3x - 40
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 8 and x = -5
x - 8 = 0 and x + 5 = 0
(x - 8)(x + 5)
x^2 + 5x - 8x - 40
x^2 - 3x - 40
Answer: x^2 - 3x - 40
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let y = f(x) = 3x - 2x^2
f(-2) = 3(-2) - 2(-2)^2 = p
= -6 - 8
= -14
= p
f(2.5) = 3(2.5) - 2(2.5)^2 = q
= 7.5 - 12.5
= -5
= q
b) graphing
c) From the graph, you should be able to verify the following:
i) f(0.5) = 3(0.5) - 2(0.5)^2 = 1
ii) 0.5 = 3x - 2x^2 or x = 1.3, 0.2
iii) the maximum occurs at
f(0.75) = 1.125
d) the equation for the line of symmetry is x = 0.75
M=2 do need a step by step explanation?
