Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic function-
It is a function that can be represented by an equation of the form
, where
In a quadratic function, the greatest power of the variable is 2.
As in the first option the highest power is 3, so it is not a quadratic function.
Even though the power of x is 2 in the third option, but as it is in the denominator, so the overall power of x becomes -2. Hence it is not a quadratic function.
As the coefficient of
is 0 in case of fourth option, so it is not a quadratic function.
Equation in option 2 satisfies all the conditions of quadratic function, hence it is the quadratic function.
Since we are already given the amount of jumps from the first trial, and how much it should be increased by on each succeeding trial, we can already solve for the amount of jumps from the first through tenth trials. Starting from 5 and adding 3 each time, we get: 5 8 (11) 14 17 20 23 26 29 32, with 11 being the third trial.
Having been provided 2 different sigma notations, which I assume are choices to the question, we can substitute the initial value to see if it does match the result of the 3rd trial which we obtained by manual adding.
Let us try it below:
Sigma notation 1:
10
<span> Σ (2i + 3)
</span>i = 3
@ i = 3
2(3) + 3
12
The first sigma notation does not have the same result, so we move on to the next.
10
<span> Σ (3i + 2)
</span><span>i = 3
</span>
When i = 3; <span>3(3) + 2 = 11. (OK)
</span>
Since the 3rd trial is a match, we test it with the other values for the 4th through 10th trials.
When i = 4; <span>3(4) + 2 = 14. (OK)
</span>When i = 5; <span>3(5) + 2 = 17. (OK)
</span>When i = 6; <span>3(6) + 2 = 20. (OK)
</span>When i = 7; 3(7) + 2 = 23. (OK)
When i = 8; <span>3(8) + 2 = 26. (OK)
</span>When i = 9; <span>3(9) + 2 = 29. (OK)
</span>When i = 10; <span>3(10) + 2 = 32. (OK)
Adding the results from her 3rd through 10th trials: </span><span>11 + 14 + 17 + 20 + 23 + 26 + 29 + 32 = 172.
</span>
Therefore, the total jumps she had made from her third to tenth trips is 172.
Y = 2x
y = 2*(-15) = -30 . . . . . selection A is appropriate
Answer:
This function would be even.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can tell a function is even if you plug in -x for x and then simplify and it is the same function. This is the case below.
y = 2x^4 + 2x^2 ----> Plug in -x
y = 2(-x)^4 + 2(-x)^2 ----> Simplify
y = 2x^4 + 2x^2
You'll notice the simplified version is exactly the same as the original, which makes it odd.
