C(t)=26t^2+168t+4208, and we wish to know when C(t)=15000

26t^2+168t+4208=15000

26t^2+168t-10792=0

They want you to use the quadratic formula...

For a quadratic of the form ax^2+bx+c=0, the quadratic formula is:

x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/(2a), in this case we have:

x=(-168±√1122368)/52, since x>0

x≈17.14

1958+17.14≈1975.14

So by 1976 the number of new cars will reach 15000.

Solve for x in this equation: 3/4+ |5-x| = 13/4
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

  x = 2.5 or 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 3/4.

  |5 -x| = 10/4 = 2.5

This resolves to two equations:

  • 5 -x = 2.5   ⇒   x = 5 -2.5 = 2.5
  • 5 -x = -2.5   ⇒   x = 5 +2.5 = 7.5

The solutions are x = 2.5 or 7.5.

Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x - h)
Tresset [83]

Given:

Replace f(x) by f(x - h).

To find:

The effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x - h).

Solution:

Horizontal shift is defined as:

If the graph f(x) shifts h units left, then f(x+h).

If the graph f(x) shifts h units right, then f(x-h).

Where, h is a constant that represents the horizontal shift.

In the given problem f(x) is replaced by f(x - h) and we need to find the effect on the graph.

Here, we have x-h in place of x.

Therefore, the graph of f(x) shifts h units right to get the graph of f(x-h).

Absolute value is just how many integers rhat number is away from 0. i say this because it’s not too hard of a thing to learn and it’s very important in the higher grades.

3 is 2 6/7
5 is a greater than symbol >
7 is 1/3 and negative 1/3 so -1/3
