B is the one I would go with, multiplying everything by 3 in the equation 3 would eliminate y.
Options
(A) (9,0) (B) (-2,20) (C) (-5,2) (D) (0,-9)
Answer:
(B) (-2,20)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the objective function, C=3x-4y
The vertex at which C is minimized will be the point (x,y) at which the expression gives the lowest value.
<u>Option A </u>
At (9,0), x=9, y=0
C=3(9)-4(0)=27-0
C=27
<u>Option B </u>
At (-2,20), x=-2, y=20
C=3(-2)-4(20)=-6-80
C=-86
<u>Option C</u>
At (-5,2), x=-5, y=2
C=3(-5)-4(2)=-15-8
C=-23
<u>Option D </u>
At (0,-9), x=0, y=-9
C=3(0)-4(-9)=0+36
C=36
The lowest value of C is -86. This occurs at the vertex (-2,20).
Therefore, the objective function C=3x-4y is minimized at (-2,20).

Answer: Distance between x intercepts is 1 unit.</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
Let's find the x intercept of f(x). Replace f(x) with 0 and solve for x
f(x) = -2x+2
0 = -2x+2
2x = 2
x = 2/2
x = 1
Plugging x = 1 into f(x) leads to f(x) = 0. The x intercept of f(x) is 1.
-----------------------
Now onto g(x). If we were given a row that had y = 0, then we'd immediately find the x intercept. However, that isn't given, so we'll have to do a bit of work to find the equation for g(x).
First we need the slope. Pick any two rows to find the slope. I'll pick the middle two rows.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (3-6)/(1-0)
m = -3/1
m = -3 is the slope
The y intercept is b = 6 as the table shows this pairs with x = 0. The y intercept always happens when x = 0.
So with m = -3 and b = 6, we see that g(x) = -3x+6.
-------------------------
Plug in g(x) = 0 and solve for x. We'll use similar ideas done in the first section at the very top
g(x) = -3x+6
0 = -3x+6
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2 is the x intercept of g(x)
--------------------------
In summary, we found...
- x = 1 is the y intercept of f(x)
- x = 2 is the y intercept of g(x)
Subtract the x intercept values to get 2-1 = 1, which is the distance between the x intercepts. The distance is never negative.
