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:

Answer:

x = 7

y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this question you have to know your exponent rules, but also you need to know how to add fractions.

To multiply

6^(1/3) × 6^(1/4)

you can keep the 6 and just add the exponents.

That's why the answer is set up on the form 6^(x/y)

To add fractions, you need a common denominator, it is 12.

1/3 is 4/12.

1/4 is 3/12.

So 1/3 + 1/4

is the same as:

4/12 + 3/12

= 7/12

7/12 is the exponent you are looking for.

x = 7 and y = 12.

6^(1/3) × 6^(1/4)

=6^(7/12)

Enter the equation of the line in the form y=mx where m is the slope.Immersive Reader
kari74 [83]

Answer:

y = 1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the rise (up) over run (left or right depending on if the number is negative) between points. So the next point on the graph is up 5 and over 10. this simplified is 1/2. Then you put this into y=mx which is y=1/2x
