Answer:

\{\frac{4}{9} \}

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we are given a parabola by definition:

f(x) = 9x^2 + 4x + k \\ a = 9, b = 4, c = k;

Since a > 0, our parabola has an upward opening.

Should we think about it graphically, it will be no wonder that we should pay our attention to the points of the parabola intersecting the abscissa axis. In other words, we need our vertex to intersect the x axis only once per se.
The vertex:

V_{x} = \frac{-b}{2a} = \frac{-4}{2 * 9} = - \frac{2}{9} \\ V_{y} = 9V_{x}^2 + 4V_{x} + k = 9(- \frac{2}{9})^2 + 4(- \frac{2}{9}) + k = 9 * \frac{4}{9^2} - \frac{8}{9} + k = \frac{4}{9} - \frac{8}{9} + k = - \frac{4}{9} + k

As a result, our V_{y} is parametric. k = \frac{4}{9} suits us because V_{y} = - \frac{4}{9} + \frac{4}{9} = 0. If k > \frac{4}{9}, we do not have any roots at all. We have two roots if k < \frac{4}{9}.

Hello,

Answer:

for k = 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 9 ; b = 4 ; c = k

we search Δ = 0 (because 1 real root)

Δ = b² - 4ac = 4² - 4 × 9 × k = 16 - 36k

Δ = 0 ⇔  16 - 36k = 0 ⇔ 36k = 16 ⇔ k = 16/36 = (4 × 4)/(4 × 9) = 4/9

⇒ k = 4/9

The parent function f(x) = x3 and its translation, g(x), are shown on the graph.
NNADVOKAT [17]

The resulting function g(x) = (x-5)^3 + 3 shows a horizontal translation to the right by 5 units and vertical translation up by 3 units

<h3>Translation of functions</h3>

Quadratic functions are functions that has a leading degree of 2.

Given the parent function as shown:

f(x) = x^3

The resulting function g(x) = (x-5)^3 + 3 shows a horizontal translation to the right by 5 units and vertical translation up by 3 units

Points A, B, and C are collinear. Point B is between A and C. Find the length indicated. AB= 5x-15, BC=3x-5, and AC=28. Find AB
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: AB is 15

Step-by-step explanation: First, you need to draw a picture and label the parts of the line: AB=5x-15; BC= 3x-5; AC =28. Because of the segment addition postulate, you set the equation to be 5x-15+3x-5=28. Then you solve:

5x-15+3x-5=28

Add like terms:

8x-20=28

Add 20 to both sides

8x=48

Divide by 8

x=6

Now, you need to find the measure of AB, so you plug the 6 into the x variable for 5x-15

5(6)-15

30-15

AB=15
