The vertex is a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.

<h3>How to determine the x-intercept?</h3>

The function is given as:

f(x)=-16x^2 + 60x + 16

Set the function to 0

-16x^2 + 60x + 16 = 0

Divide through by -4

4x^2 - 15x - 4 = 0


Expand

4x^2 - 16x + x - 4 = 0

Factorize

4x(x - 4) +1(x - 4) = 0

Factor out x - 4

(4x + 1)(x - 4) = 0

Solve for x

x = -1/4 and x = 4

Hence, the x-intercept of the graph of f(x) is -1/4 and 4

<h3>The vertex of the graph</h3>

The function is given as:

f(x)=-16x^2 + 60x + 16

Differentiate

f'(x) = -32x + 60

Set to 0

-32x + 60 = 0

This gives

-32x = -60

Divide by -32

x = 1.875

Substitute x = 1.875 in f(x)=-16x^2 + 60x + 16

f(1.875) = -16 * 1.875^2 + 60* 1.875 + 16

Evaluate

f(1.875) = 72.25

Hence, the vertex of the graph of f(x) is (1.875, 72.25)

Also, the vertex is a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.

<h3>Steps to graph f(x)</h3>

To graph f(x), we plot the x-intercepts and the vertex.

And then draw a curve through the points

<u>Part A</u>

<u />-16x^2 + 60x+16=0\\\\4x^2 - 15x-4=0\\\\(4x+1)(x-4)=0\\\\x=-\frac{1}{4}, 4

<u>Part B</u>

The vertex of the graph will be a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.

The x coordinate of the vertex is -\frac{60}{2(-16)}=\frac{15}{8}.

When x=15/8, f\left(\frac{15}{8} \right)=\frac{289}{4}.

So, the vertex has coordinates \left(\frac{15}{8}, \frac{289}{4} \right)

<u>Part C</u>

Plot the two x-intercepts and the vertex and then draw a curve in the shape of a parabola passing through them.

The graph is in the attached image.

Which of the following are solutions to the equation 2cos2x-1=0
loris [4]

Answer:

x = π/4 and 5π/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;

2cos²x - 1 = 0

2cos²x = 0+1

2cos²x = 1

cos²x = 1/2

cos x = ±√1/2

cos x = ±0.7071

x = arccos(±0.7071)

x = ±45 degrees

Convert to radians

Sence 180° = π rad

45°  = x

x = 45π/180

x = π/4

If x = -45°

Since cos is negative in the 3rd quadrant

x = 180 + 45

x = 225°

x = 225π/180

x = 45π/36

x = 5π/4

Melissa collected data from a group of people regarding whether or not they prefer turkey or ham and whether or not they prefer
dedylja [7]

Answer:

I’m pretty sure it’s B)- Z

Step-by-step explanation:

18. The correct table must display the following information.

38% prefer turkey with mayonnaise 20% prefer turkey with mustard 24% prefer ham with mayonnaise 18% prefer ham with mustard

In tables Z and W, each table totals 50 people.

To find the relative frequencies of the data in these tables, divide each number in the table by 50.

In tables X and Y, each table totals 100 people.

To find the relative frequencies of the data in these tables, divide each number in the table by 100.

The only table which is a possible representation of the data collected is table Z.
