Answer:

y = -2(x + 1)^2 + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola can be written in the form;

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

where a is the multiplier (h,k) is the vertex

so h = -1 and k = 8

Plug in these values

y = a(x + 1)^2 + 8

So to get the value of a, we use the point where the parabola passes through which is the point (1,0)

Simply substitute the values of x and y

0 = a(1 + 1)^2 + 8

0 = a(2)^2 + 8

-8 = 4a

a = -8/4

a = -2

So therefore the equation of the parabola is ;

y = -2(x + 1)^2 + 8

Question 14 of 25What is the complete factorization of the polynomial below?x³+x² + 4x+4O A. (x-1)(x+2)(x+2)B. (x + 1)(x + 2)(x

mote1985 [20]

GIVEN:

We are given the following polynomial;

$x^3+x^2+4x+4$

Required;

We are required to factorize this polynomial completely.

Step-by-step explanation;

To factorize this polynomial, we start by grouping;

$(x^3+x^2)+(4x+4)$

We now take the common factor in each group;

$\begin{gathered} x^2(x+1)+4(x+1) \\ \\ (x^2+4)(x+1) \end{gathered}$

Next, we factorize the first parenthesis. To do this we set the equation equal to zero and solve for x as follows;

$\begin{gathered} x^2+4=0 \\ \\ Subtract\text{ }4\text{ }from\text{ }both\text{ }sides: \\ \\ x^2=-4 \\ \\ Take\text{ }the\text{ }square\text{ }root\text{ }of\text{ }both\text{ }sides: \\ \\ x=\pm\sqrt{-4} \\ \\ x=(\pm\sqrt{-1}\times\sqrt{4}) \\ \\ x=\pm2i \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the factors of the other parenthesis are;

$(x+2i)(x-2i)$

Therefore, the complete factorization of the polynomial is;

ANSWER:

$(x+1)(x+2i)(x-2i)$

Option C is the correct answer.

This is a 3 part 1 question each part on how to locate the plane and a small explanation report working out the recovery details

Third leg.

The crew flies at a speed of 560 mi/h in direction N-20°-E.

The wind has a speed of 35 mi/h and a direction S-10°-E.

We then can draw this as:

We have to add the two vectors to find the actual speed and direction.

We will start by adding the x-coordinate (W-E axis):

$\begin{gathered} x=560\cdot\sin (20\degree)+35\cdot\sin (10\degree) \\ x\approx560\cdot0.342+35\cdot0.174 \\ x\approx191.53+6.08 \\ x\approx197.61 \end{gathered}$

and the y-coordinate (S-N axis) is:

$\begin{gathered} y=560\cdot\cos (20\degree)-35\cdot\cos (10\degree) \\ y\approx560\cdot0.940-35\cdot0.985 \\ y\approx526.23-34.47 \\ y\approx491.76 \end{gathered}$

Then, the actual speed vector is v3=(197.61, 491.76).

The starting location for the third leg is R2=(216.66, 167.67) [taken from the previous answer].

Then, we have to calculate the displacement in 20 minutes using the actual speed vector.

We can calculate the movement in each of the axis. For the x-axis:

$\begin{gathered} R_{3x}=R_{2x}+v_{3x}\cdot t \\ R_{3x}=216.66+197.61\cdot\frac{1}{3} \\ R_{3x}=216.66+65.87 \\ R_{3x}=282.53 \end{gathered}$

NOTE: 20 minutes represents 1/3 of an hour.

We can do the same with the y-coordinate:

$\begin{gathered} R_{3y}=R_{2y}+v_{3y}\cdot t \\ R_{3y}=167.67+491.76\cdot\frac{1}{3} \\ R_{3y}=167.67+163.92 \\ R_{3y}=331.59 \end{gathered}$

The final position is R3 = (282.53, 331.59).

To find the distance from the origin and direction, we transform the cartesian coordinates of R3 into polar coordinates:

The distance can be calculated as if it was a right triangle:

$\begin{gathered} d^2=x^2+y^2_{} \\ d^2=282.53^2+331.59^2 \\ d^2=79823.20+109951.93 \\ d^2=189775.13 \\ d=\sqrt[]{189775.13} \\ d\approx435.63 \end{gathered}$

The angle, from E to N, can be calculated as:

$\begin{gathered} \tan (\alpha)=\frac{y}{x} \\ \tan (\alpha)=\frac{331.59}{282.53} \\ \tan (\alpha)\approx1.1736 \\ \alpha=\arctan (1.1736) \\ \alpha=49.56\degree \end{gathered}$

If we want to express it from N to E, we substract the angle from 90°:

$\beta=90\degree-\alpha=90-49.56=40.44\degree$

Answer: the final location can be represented with the vector (282.53, 331.59).

1) The distance from the origin is 435.63 miles and

2) the direction is N-40°-E.
