y = {x}^{3}  - 4 {x}^{2}  - 45x \\ y = x( {x}^{2}  - 4x - 45) \\ y = x(x + 5)(x - 9) \\ x = 0, - 5,9
So, to find our x-intercepts, y must be zero
0 = x \\  \\ 0 = (x + 5) \\  - 5 = x \\  \\ 0 = (x - 9) \\ 9 = x
ANSWER: (0,0) (-5.0) (9,0) are your x-intercepts

A. Find the amplitude.
Feliz [49]

Answers:

  • a) Amplitude = 2
  • b) Period = pi
  • c) Vertical shift = -2, which means it has been shifted down 2 units.
  • d) Horizontal shift = 3pi/8, this shifting is to the right.
  • e) There is <u>  one  </u> cycle between 0 and 2pi.
  • f) The equation of the graph is y = 2*sin(2(x-3pi/8))-2

========================================================

Explanations:

Part (a)

The highest point is when y = 0 and the lowest point is when y = -4. The vertical distance between the peak and valley is 4 units, which cuts in half to 2. This is the amplitude. It's the vertical distance from the center to either the peak or valley.

Note: Amplitude is always positive as it measures a distance.

---------------------

Part (b)

For x > 0, the first valley or lowest point occurs between 0 and pi/4. It appears to be the midpoint of the two values. So that would be (0+pi/4)/2 = pi/8.

The next valley occurs between pi and 5pi/4. Compute the midpoint to get (pi+5pi/4)/2 = (4pi/4+5pi/4)/2 = (9pi/4)/2 = 9pi/8

So we have the graph go from one valley x = pi/8 to the next valley over x = 9pi/8. This is a distance of pi units because 9pi/8-pi/8 = 8pi/8 = pi

The graph repeats itself every pi units, so the period is pi.

---------------------

Part (c)

The midline is normally through y = 0, aka the x axis. However, the graph shows the midline is through y = -2. This means the graph has been shifted down 2 units.

---------------------

Part (d)

This will depend on whether you use sine or cosine. This is entirely because cosine is a phase-shifted version of sine, and vice versa. I'll go with sine.

The parent sine function y = sin(x) goes through the origin (0,0)

However, as part (c) mentioned, we shifted the graph 2 units down. So we have y = sin(x)-2. But plugging x = 0 into this leads to the point (0,-2)

This doesn't match what the graph says. The graph shows the point (3pi/8, -2) on the red curve. The x coordinate 3pi/8 is the midpoint of pi/4 and pi/2

This must mean we need to shift the sine graph 3pi/8 units to the right.

---------------------

Part (e)

Start at the lowest point when x = pi/8. If you start the cycle here, then it ends when x = 9pi/8. See part (b).

So far we've completed one cycle. If we start at x = 9pi/8, then the next valley or lowest point is slightly beyond or to the right of x = 2pi. This means we run out of room and we haven't completed a full cycle.

Overall, one full cycle is between 0 and 2pi.

---------------------

Part (f)

Again I'm going to use sine instead of cosine. Refer back to part (d).

The general sine curve equation is

y = A*sin(B(x-C))+D

where

  • |A| = amplitude
  • B handles the period, specifically T = 2pi/B where T is the period. We can solve for B to get B = 2pi/T
  • C = horizontal phase shift
  • D = vertical shift, and ties together with the midline equation

In this case, we found that

  • |A| = 2
  • T = pi leads to B = 2pi/T = 2pi/pi = 2
  • C = 3pi/8
  • D = -2

So,

y = A*sin(B(x-C))+D

will update to

y = 2*sin(2(x-3pi/8))-2

which is one way to express the equation of the red curve. Optionally you can distribute the 2 through to (x-3pi/8).

Quinn is determining the area of a trapezoid. His work is shown below.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

A = a + b / 2 x h

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is equal to side one plus side two divided by two then you multiply by the height of the trapezoid. Hope this helps!

Types of bonds are divided into three categories: good risk, medium risk, and poor risk. Assume that of a total of 11, 332 bonds
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Probabilty of not poor= 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

total of 11332 bonds.

7311 are good risk.

1182 are medium risk.

Poor risk

= total risk-(good risk+ medium risk)

= 11332-(7311+1182)

= 11332-8493

= 2839.

Poor risk = 2839

Probabilty that the ball choosen at random is not poor= 1 - probability that the ball is poor

Probability of poor = 2839/11332

Probabilty of poor= 0.2505

Probabilty that the ball choosen at random is not poor= 1- 0.2505

= 0.7495

To two decimal place= 0.75
