Answer:

  Minimum at (2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the leading coefficient from the first two terms:

  f(x) = 2(x^2 -4x) +6

Inside parentheses, add the square of half the x-coefficient. Add the opposite of that amount outside parentheses.

  f(x) = 2(x^2 -4x +4) +6 -8

Rewrite in vertex form.

  f(x) = 2(x -2)^2 -2

The positive leading coefficient tells you the vertex is a <em>minimum</em>. Comparing this to the vertex form for a quadratic with vertex (h, k)

  f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k

we find the <em>vertex</em> to be ...

  (h, k) = (2, -2)

The function has a minimum at (2, -2).

Use a matrix to solve the system:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

(2.83 , 1 , 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2y-z=4\\4x-2y-2z=2\\3x+3y-4z=-4\\

Rewrite these equations in matrix form

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2&-1\\4&-2&-2\\3&3&-4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\2\\-4\end{array}\right] \\

we can write it like this,

AX=B\\X=A^{-1}B

so to solve it we need to take the inverse of the 3 x 3 matrix A then multiply it by B.

We get the inverse of matrix A,

A^{-1}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7/15&1/6&-1/5\\1/3&-1/6&0\\3/5&0&-2/5\end{array}\right]  \\

now multiply the matrix with B

X=A^{-1}B\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7/15&1/6&-1/5\\1/3&-1/6&0\\3/5&0&-2/5\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\2\\-4\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2.83\\1\\4\end{array}\right] \\
