The function y = x2 – 4x + 7 approximates the height, y, of a bird, and its horizontal distance, x, as it flies from one fence

post to another. All distances are in feet. Complete the square to find and interpret the extreme value (vertex).
Select two answers: one extreme value and one interpretation.



A. Minimum at (4, 7)
B. When the bird is 4 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 7 feet.
C. When the bird is 2 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 3 feet.
D. Minimum at (2, 3)

From the function y=x^2-4x+7
to complete the square we proceed as follows:
The vertex form is given by:
y=(x-h)^2+k
where (h,k) is the vertex:
thus from the function we shall have:
y=x^2-4x+7
c=(b/2a)²
c=(4/2)²=4
thus adding an subtracting 4 in the expression:
y=x^2-4x+4-4+7
y=(x-2)^2+3
thus the vertex will be:
(2,3)

The answer is:

H=v/(2pir)

You just have to isolate h. To do that you are going to divide both sides by 2pir.

The sum of two numbers is seventeen. Three less than three times the smaller is equal to the larger
tia_tia [17]
The numbers are 5 and 12.
Smaller number = x
Larger number = y
x +y =17
y = 3x - 3
x +3x -3 = 17
4x = 20
x = 5
smaller number is 5
y = 3(5) - 3
y = 12
larger number is 12.

What is the domain of this exponential function?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Domain = x E R

Step-by-step explanation:

Since an exponential function has no restriction on the "x" value, its domain can range from anywhere on the plane of "x."

If y=1/4 when x=5, find y when x=7, given that y directly with x
mariarad [96]

Answer:

7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y varies directly with x, the ratio of y to x is proportional.

... y / 7 = (1/4)/(5)

... y / 7 = 1 / 20 . . . . simplify

... y = 7/20 . . . . . multiply by 7
