Part A: x = -5/4, 3 || (-5/4, 0) (3, 0)
To find the x-intercepts, we need to know where y is equal to 0. So, we will set the function equal to 0 and solve for x.
4x^2 - 7x - 15 = 0
4 x 15 = 60 || -12 x 5 = 60 || -12 + 5 = -7
4x^2 - 12x + 5x - 15 = 0
4x(x - 3) + 5(x - 3) = 0
(4x + 5)(x - 3) = 0
4x + 5 = 0
x = -5/4
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
Part B: minimum, (7/8, -289/16)
The vertex of the graph will be a minimum. This is because the parabola is positive, meaning that it opens to the top.
To find the coordinates of the parabola, we start with the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate can be found using the equation -b/2a.
b = -7
a = 4
x = -(-7) / 2(4) = 7/8
Now that we know the x-value, we can plug it into the function and solve for the y-value.
y = 4(7/8)^2 - 7(7/8) - 15
y = 4(49/64) - 49/8 - 15
y = 196/64 - 392/64 - 960/64
y = -1156/64 = -289/16 = -18 1/16
Part C:
First, start by graphing the vertex. Then, use the x-intercepts and graph those. At this point we should have three points in a sort of triangle shape. If we did it right, each of the x-values will be an equal distance from the vertex. After we have those points graphed, it is time to draw in the parabola. Knowing that the parabola is positive, we draw in a U shape that passes through each of the three points and opens toward the top of the coordinate grid.
Hope this helps!

half lives are normally written in years
it goes likt this

A=final amount
P=initila amount
t=time elapsed
h=time half life is (same units as time)
let's use days as the units of time
we are given
initial amount=1gram
final amount=0.3gram
time=4 days
so

solve for h

take the ln of both sides


times both sides by h

divide both sides by ln(0.3)

use calculator
h=2.30287
3 sig figs
h=2.303 days
Yes, this is correct. The tenths place is the first number to the right of the decimal. There is a 3 in that spot
To find if it rounds up or down, follow this rule.
Less than 5 round down and greater than 5 round up.
For this you look to the number next to it which is 7.
It rounds up so it is 9.4
