Answer:
The answer is A. (x-6)(x-6)
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 -12x + 36
x^2 - (6+6) x+36
x^2 - 6x - 6x + 36
x( x - 6) -6(x-6)
(x-6)(x-6)
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!
Take Saturdays total of $620 and subtract Fridays total of $460 to get $160. Divide that by the difference of the number of pies sold on Friday and Saturday to get $8. Take the $8 and multiply by number of pies sold on Friday (20) to get $160. Take that number and subtract it from the total sold on Friday ($460) to get $300. Divide that by how many cakes were sold on Friday (30) and get $10.
So therefore:
Pies - $8 each
Cakes - $10 each
