How can I can the Graphing the function

Mathematics

laiz [17]3 years ago

in short, you simply pick a few random "x" values, to get the "y", and that's your point, for example say x = 2, then y = -(2)² - 4 => y = -8, that gives us the point of (2, -8), and so on.


we can start off by finding the vertex, the U-turn of the graph, and then just pick a point to its left side and a point to its right side, and we can get the vertex of that by


\bf y=-4x^2-4\implies y=-4x^2+0x-4 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients} \\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-4}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+0}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-4} \qquad \qquad \left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~ c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right) \\\\\\ \left(-\cfrac{0}{2(-4)}~,~-4-\cfrac{0}{4(-4)} \right)\implies (0~,~-4-0)\implies (0,-4)


and since it's a vertical parabola, the axis of symmetry comes from the x-coordinate of the vertex, namely x = 0, check the picture below.

Answer:

5) Part A: The rate of change, also known as the slope, is the "0.6x" part of the equation. It means that for every week the puppy is alive, x, that number is multiplied by 0.6 pounds.

Part B: The y-intercept is 4 pounds, which represents a puppy being 4 pounds at birth.

Part C: y = 0.6x + 4

y = 0.6(8)+4

y = 8.8

At 8 weeks, a puppy is estimated to be 8.8 pounds.

Part D: y = 0.6x + 4

22 = 0.6 + 4

-4              -4

18 = 0.6x

18/0.6 = 0.6x/0.6

30 = x

It would take a puppy 30 weeks to reach 22 pounds.
