Answer:

                   a = -2

Simplifying 5 + -2(4a + 1) + 3a = 13 Reorder the terms: 5 + -2(1 + 4a) + 3a = 13 5 + (1 * -2 + 4a * -2) + 3a = 13 5 + (-2 + -8a) + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: 5 + -2 = 3 3 + -8a + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: -8a + 3a = -5a 3 + -5a = 13 Solving 3 + -5a = 13 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + -5a = 13 + -3 -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 13 + -3 = 10 -5a = 10 Divide each side by '-5'. a = -2

Which represents a quadratic function?
irinina [24]

Answer:

Option 2 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic function is a function in which the highest power to which the variable is raised is 2

1) f(x) = −8x3 − 16x2 − 4x

The given function is a cubic function because the highest power

to which the variable,x is raised is 3

2) f(x) = 3x²/4 + 2x - 5

The given function is a quadratic function because the highest power

to which the variable,x is raised is 2

3) f(x) = 4/x² - 2/x + 1

It can be rewritten as

f(x) = 4x^-2 - 2x^-1 + 1

The given function is not a quadratic function because the highest power to which the variable,x is raised is - 2

4) f(x) = 0x2 − 9x + 7

It can be rewritten as

f(x) = - 9x + 7

The given function is not a quadratic function because the highest power to which the variable,x is raised is 1
