Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The required relation is ...
7n = n^2 -8
0 = n^2 -7n -8 . . . . put in standard form
0 = (n -8)(n +1) . . . . factor
Solutions are n=8 and n=-1.
The negative solution is -1.
Answer:
(-2, ∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is "increasing" when its graph goes up to the right, the slope is positive. At a turning point (maximum or minimum), the function is neither increasing nor decreasing.
<h3>Increasing interval</h3>
The graph has a minimum at x = -2. To the left of that point, the graph goes up to the left, which is the same as down to the right (decreasing).
To the right of x = -2, the graph goes up to the right (increasing). It continues to increase for all values of x > 2. The interval where the function is increasing is said to be ...
-2 < x < ∞
The lack of "or equal to" tells you the interval is "open" and is delimited by parentheses in interval notation:
increasing; (-2, ∞)
Axis of symmetry: x=1
Vertex: (1, -24)
Explanation:
6x²-12x-25=-7
6x²-12x-18=0
a=6, b=-12, c=-18
Formula of axis of symmetry: x=-b/2a
x=-b/2a
x= -(-12)/2(6)
x= 12/12
x= 1
Vertex: (1,?)
Sub x= 1 into the equation,
6(1)² - 12(1) - 18 = y
6 - 12 - 18 = y
y = -24
Equation for slope.
y2 - y1/x2 - x1
Using (x,3) and (5,9)
9 - 3/5 - x = 2
6/(5 - x) = 2
Cross multiply
6 = 2(5 - x)
6 = 10 - 2x
6 - 10 = -2x
-4 = -2x
x = 2
y2 - y1/x2 - x1
9 - 3/5 - 2
6/3 = 2
Hope this helps.
