Given:
wild turkey ; 12 in the first hour and cumulative number increases by 40% per hour
white-tail deer ; 18 in the first hour and 10 deer each hour after that.
wild turkery: 12 * (1.40)^n-1 ; n is the number of hour
white-tail deer: 18 + 10^n-1 ; n is the number of hour
n wild turkey white-tail deer
1 12 18
2 17 28
3 24 38
4 33 48
5 46 58
6 65 68
7 90 78
It would be hour 7 after sunrise that the cumulative count of the turkeys first exceed the cumulative count of the deer.
To do this, complete the square:
p(x) = 21 + 24x + 6x2 => <span>p(x) = 6x2 + 24x + 21
Rewrite the first 2 terms as
6(x^2 + 4x)
then you have </span><span>p(x) = 6(x2 + 4x ) + 21
Now complete the square of x^2 + 4x:
p(x) = 6(x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4) + 21
= 6(x+2)^2 - 24 + 21
p(x) = 6(x+2)^2 - 3 this is in vertex form now.
We can read off the coordinates of the vertex from this: (-2, -3)</span>
Answer:
y = -3, -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula is (b/2)^2
So...
(y+7/2)^2 - 1/4 = 0
Add 1/4 to each side
(y+7/2)^2 = 1/4
Square root...
y+7/2 = +-1/2
Add
y = -3, -4
Answer:
Part A) x = -3
Part B) x = 1, x = -7
Part C) x < -7
Part D) 2
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part A)</h3>
2(x - 3) = 3x - 3
<em>open the parenthesis</em>
2 * x - 2 * 3 = 3x - 3
2x - 6 = 3x - 3
<em>subtract 2x from both sides</em>
2x - 2x - 6 = 3x - 2x - 3
-6 = x - 3
<em>add 3 to both sides</em>
-6 + 3 = x
-3 = x
<h3>
Part B)</h3>
|2x + 6| = 8
<em>split this into two equations:</em>
<em>2x + 6 = 8</em>
<em>&</em>
<em>2x + 6 = -8</em>
2x + 6 = 8
2x = 8-6
2x = 2
x = 1
2x + 6 = -8
2x = -8 - 6
2x = -14
x = -7
<h3>Part C)</h3>
-5(x + 1) > 30
<em>open the parenthesis</em>
-5x - 5 > 30
<em>add 5 to both sides</em>
-5x > 35
<em>divide both sides by -5</em>
x > -7
<em>since you divided by a negative, flip the sign.</em>
x < -7
<h3>
Part D)</h3>
f(x) = 4x - 3
<em>substitute x for 5</em>
5 = 4x - 3
5 + 3 = 4x
8 = 4x
2 = x
