Answer
y = 1(x +1) - 3
Explanation
A quadratic equation of the form y = ax^2 + bx + c
This written in complete the square form provides you with the vertex (either a maximum or minimum point depending on the equation).
This results in y = a(x + p) + q
Where - p is the x value and q is the y value of turning point.
For graph 22, x = -1 and y = -3
Therefore, the equation is of the form
y = a(x + 1) - 3 (*)
We still need the value a, this can be obtained by using the y-intercept we are given.
We are told x = 0 when y = -2
Substitute this in (*) equation:
-2 = a(0+1) - 3
-2 = a - 3
a = 1
Therefore final equation is
y = 1(x +1) - 3
This should provide you with the train of thought of how the second question should also be tackled.
If unsure about why the equation
y = a(x + p) + q gives the vertex ask in comments I will respond
Tan A = BC/AB = 15/8
answer is B. 15/8
Answer:
A. About 4,900 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We want h such that ...
5 = 10·ln(h) -80
8.5 = ln(h) . . . . . . . add 80, divide by 10
e^8.5 = h ≈ 4914.8 . . . . take the antilog
h ≈ 4900 . . . . feet
Answer: 11, 45, 45, 54, 520
30:6 is an equivalent ratio. Anymore and you would have a decimal.
