Answer:
The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) =3x^2-6x-18
Factor out the greatest common factor out of the first two terms
f(x) =3(x^2-2x)-18
Complete the square
-2x/2 =-1 (-1)^2 = 1
Add 1 (But remember the 3 out front so we are really adding 3 so we need to subtract 3 to remain balanced)
f(x) = 3(x^2 -2x+1) -3 -18
f(x) = 3(x-1)^2 -21
This is vertex form
f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k where (h,k) is the vertex and a is a constant
The vertex is (1,-21)
Since a > 0 this opens upward and the vertex is a minimum
The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1
The formula of an area of a circle:

We have
r = 1.8 m
π ≈ 3.14
Substitute:

Similarities: They both are polynomials of degree 2, both of their graphs is a parabola, both have either 2 or 0 real solutions, they are both continuous functions over R
<span>(DOS= difference of two squares, PST=perfect square trinomial </span>
<span>Differences: PST has three terms, whereas the difference of squares has 2. PST's factors are both the same, whereas DOS's elements are conjugates of each other. DOS can always be factored into two distinct polynomials with rational coefficients, whereas PST has two same polynomial factors.</span>
Answer:
$1.98
Step-by-step explanation:
1.65/5=0.33
1.65+0.33=1.98
check: 1.98/6 =0.33
0.33x5=1.65
