Anything to a negative power becomes the inverse with the coefficient to a positive power.
For example, 3^-1 becomes 1/3^1 or just 1/3.
3^-2 would be 1/3^2 or 1/9.
We are given : Zeros x=7 and x=4 and leading coefficent 1.
In order to find the quadratic function in standard form, we need to find the factors of quadratic function first and the multiply by given leading coefficent.
For the given zeros x=7 and x=4, we get the factors (x-7) and (x-4).
So, we need to multiply (x-7) and (x-4) by foil method.
We get
(x-7)(x-4) = x*x + x* -4 -7*x -7*-4
x^2 -4x -7x +28.
Combining like terms, we get
-4x-7x = -11x
x^2 -4x -7x +28 = x^2 -11x +28.
Now, we need to multiply x^2 -11x +28 quadratic by leading coefficent 1.
We get
1(x^2 -11x +28) = x^2 -11x +28.
Therefore, the required quadratic function in standard form is x^2 -11x +28.
12 inches = 1foot
1yard = 3feet
6yards = 18feet
Rerange the question:
If edging cost $2.32 per 1foot stone, and you want a double layer of edging around your flower bed that is 18feet by 3feet. How much will edging you flower bed cost?
Perimter:
2(18+3)=42
And since you want to double it; double the perimeter too.
42(2)=84
2.32(84)=194.88
I assume you are calculating the total area to be painted.
Then 3 x 8.3 x 7.5 = 186.75 sq. ft.
