<u>Part A</u>
<u />![4x^2 -7x-15=0\\\\(4x+5)(x-3)=0\\\\x=-\frac{5}{4}, 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4x%5E2%20-7x-15%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%284x%2B5%29%28x-3%29%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5Cx%3D-%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B4%7D%2C%203)
So, the x-intercepts are ![\boxed{\left(-\frac{5}{4}, 0 \right), (3,0)}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cboxed%7B%5Cleft%28-%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B4%7D%2C%200%20%5Cright%29%2C%20%283%2C0%29%7D)
<u>Part B</u>
The vertex will be a minimum because the coefficient of
is positive.
The x-coordinate of the vertex is ![x=-\frac{-7}{2(4)}=\frac{7}{8}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D-%5Cfrac%7B-7%7D%7B2%284%29%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D)
Substituting this back into the function, we get ![f\left(\frac{7}{8} \right)=4\left(\frac{7}{8} \right)^2 -7\left(\frac{7}{8} \right)^2 -15=-\frac{289}{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%20%5Cright%29%3D4%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E2%20-7%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E2%20-15%3D-%5Cfrac%7B289%7D%7B16%7D)
So, the coordinates of the vertex are ![\boxed{\left(\frac{7}{8}, -\frac{289}{16} \right)}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cboxed%7B%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%2C%20-%5Cfrac%7B289%7D%7B16%7D%20%5Cright%29%7D)
<u>Part C</u>
Plot the vertex and the x-intercepts and draw a parabola that passes through these three points.
The graph is shown in the attached image.
The y-intercept of the given table is 2000.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Write the table in the ascending order.
From the table, calculate the rise and run to find the slope of the line.
![rise=y_2-y_1.\\run =x_2-x_1.](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=rise%3Dy_2-y_1.%5C%5Crun%20%3Dx_2-x_1.)
Choose points (0,2000) and (1,1800).
rise= -200 and run=1.
Slope m = -200.
The line equation is y=mx+c.
Apply the slop value in the equation,
y= -200x+c.
To find the y-intercept substitute a value in the above equation.
Substitute(1,1800),
1800 = -200(1)+c.
2000=c.
y= -200x+2000.
The y-intercept is the point where the line passes through in the vertical y-axis at the origin.
Answer:
ok thanks :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Slope: 5
Y-intercept: 0
Equation: y=5x
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets look for an equation of the format y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).
Slope is defined as the "Rise/Run" of the line. The change in y(the rise) for a change in x(the run). This can be calculated by taking any two of the given data points. I'll pick (1,5) and (5,25):
Rise = (25 - 5) = 20
Run = (5 - 1) = 4
The Rise/Run, or slope, m, is (20/4) or 5.
<u>The equation becomes y = 5x + b.</u>
To find b, the y-intercept, enter <u>any</u> of the points into the equation and solve for b:
y = 5x + b
y = 5x + b for (4,20)
20 = 5*(4) + b
b = 0
The line goes through the origin at x = 0 (0,0).
The equation is y = 5x + 0 or just y = 5x.
Slope: 5
Y-intercept: 0
Equation: y=5x
The answer is C. 10 units. This is because they have the same y value so they are the same height, and you need to find the distance between -7 and 3. To get from -7 to 0, you add 7, and to get from 0 to 3 you add 3, so 7 + 3 = 10. I hope this helps!
