Answer:
Option (A)
Step-by-step explanation:
Sasha has an amount of $400 and saves $20 per week.
If we graph the savings of Sasha, her savings per week will be defined by the slope of the line = $20 per week
Similarly, from the graph attached,
Slope of the line given in the graph = Per week savings of Natalia
Slope of line passing through (0, 190) and (2, 210) will be,
Slope =
=
= 10
Therefore, per week savings of Natalia = $10
Difference in savings of Sasha and Natalia = 20 - 10 = $10 per week
Here, Sasha shows the greater rate of change by $10 per week
Therefore, Option (A) will be the answer.
Answer:
x = - 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the sketch represents
y = x² + bx + c
The graph crosses the y- axis at (0 , - 14), thus c = - 14
y = x² + bx - 14
Given the graph crosses the x- axis at (2, 0), then
0 = 2² + 2b - 14
0 = 4 + 2b - 14 = 2b - 10 ( add 10 to both sides )
10 = 2b ( divide both sides by 2 )
b = 5
y = x² + 5x - 14 ← represents the graph
let y = 0 , then
x² + 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 7)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
The x- intercepts are x = - 7 and x = 2
The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is midway between the x- intercepts, thus
the x- coordinate of the turning point is =
= - 2.5
