<span>A1 is the 1st term r is the difference, they can say "r" or "d" for the difference 1st a1 is the first term = -3 2nd "r" is the difference between each consecutive terms (coming after each other) = 1.5 the rule to get any term of the sequence as we add 1.5 each time is --> a1+(n-1)*d a1 --> 1st term , n --> order of the term u want whether 2nd, 3rd , 25th d --> difference so to get the 2nd--> -3+(2-1)*1.5= -1.5 to get the 3rd --> -3 +(3-1)*1.5 = 0 and so on</span>
You should add the two bases and muliply them with the height and then divide with 2
(14+18)×10÷2=160
Remember that the vertex form of a parabola or quadratic equation is:
y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the "vertex" which is the maximum or minimum point of the parabola (and a is half the acceleration of the of the function, but that is maybe too much :P)
In this case we are given that the vertex is (1,1) so we have:
y=a(x-1)^2+1, and then we are told that there is a point (0,-3) so we can say:
-3=a(0-1)^2+1
-3=a+1
-4=a so our complete equation in vertex form is:
y=-4(x-1)^2+1
Now you wish to know where the x-intercepts are. x-intercepts are when the graph touches the x-axis, ie, when y=0 so
0=-4(x-1)^2+1 add 4(x-1)^2 to both sides
4(x-1)^2=1 divide both sides by 4
(x-1)^2=1/4 take the square root of both sides
x-1=±√(1/4) which is equal to
x-1=±1/2 add 1 to both sides
x=1±1/2
So x=0.5 and 1.5, thus the x-intercept points are:
(0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0) or if you like fractions:
(1/2, 0) and (3/2, 0) :P
Answer:
The answer would be y= |x-2| -1.
When graphing the answer B would be a larger quantity but A is the correct answer. Hope this helps :))
The answer is 24 because 8 times 3 is 24
