DRaw the graph of f (x) = 1/2 x² -2x where -2 &lt; x &lt; 4​
Flura [38]

Answer:

Graphs Attached Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Standard form of a quadratic: ax^2 + bx + c= 0

From our Equation:

  • a = 1/2
  • b = -2
  • c = 0

There are several values that are needed to drawing a parabola:

  • y - intercept
  • Axis of Symmetry (AOS)
  • Vertex
  • x - intercepts

<h2>Y-intercept</h2>

Standard form of a quadratic: ax^2 + bx + c= 0

The y-intercept is the "c" value. Given that our equation has a "c" value of 0, the y -intercept is 0.

<h2>Axis of Symmetry</h2>

A parabola is always symmetrical vertically. The line in which the fold happens is the Axis of Symmetry.

To calculate the AOS, we use the formula AOS = \frac{-b}{2a}, from the values of the equation.

Calculate

  • AOS = \frac{-b}{2a}
  • AOS = \frac{-(-2)}{2(0.5)}
  • AOS = \frac{2}{1}
  • AOS = 2

The Axis of Symmetry is a vertical line, so the AOS is the line x = 2.

<h2>Vertex</h2>

The vertex is the highest or lowest point on the graph of a parabola. It resides on the AOS of the graph.

To calculate the vertex, we simply have to find the y-value, given that we have the x-value from the AOS. We can find the y-value by plugging in the AOS for x in the original equation.

Calculate

  • f(x) = \frac12x^2 - 2x
  • f(x) = \frac12 (2)^2 - 2(2)
  • f(x) = 2 - 4
  • f(x) = -2

The y-value is -2. The vertex is (2, -2).

<h2>X-intercepts</h2>

The x-intercepts are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis (y = 0).

Solve by Factoring

  • f(x) = \frac12 x^2 - 2x
  • 0 = \frac12x(x - 4)
  • x = 0, x = 4

The roots are (0,0) and (4,0).

<h2>Graph</h2>

Now we just draw the y-intercept, vertex, AOS, and the x-intercepts, and draw a curved line between them.

<h2>Domain Restrictions</h2>

The Domain (x-values) are being restricted to all x-values that are greater than or equal to -2 and less than 4.

That means we remove the parts of the line that don't belong in that domain.

1. Find the domain of the given function. (1 point)
Andrews [41]

<span>1) Find the domain of the given function.
f(x) = square root of quantity x plus three divided by quantity x plus eight times quantity x minus two.</span>

 using a graphical tool    see the attachment  

the answer is C) x ≥ -3, x ≠ 2  

 2. Identify intervals on which the function is increasing, decreasing, or constant.

g(x) = 2 - (x - 7)2

 using a graphical tool     

see the attachment

 the answer is  C) Increasing: x < 7; decreasing: x > 7

3. Perform the requested operation or operations.

<span>
f(x) = 4x + 7, g(x) = 3x2

Find (f + g)(x).</span>

 (f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) 

(f + g)(x) = 4x + 7 + 3x^2 

(f + g)(x) = 3x^2 + 4x + 7

 The answer is  C) 4x + 7 + 3x2

 4. Perform the requested operation or operations.

f(x) = x minus five divided by eight. ; g(x) = 8x + 5, find g(f(x)).

 f(x)=(x-5)/8    g(x)=8x+5

g(f(x))=8((x-5)/8)+5=x-5+5=x

the answer is  B) g(f(x)) = x   

<span>5. Find f(x) and g(x) so that the function can be described as y = f(g(x)).
y = nine divided by square root of quantity five x plus five. </span>

 y=f(g(x))=9/((5x+5) ^1/2)

let do

g(x)=5x+5...........so

f(x)= 9/( x^1/2)

the answer is  A) f(x) = nine divided by square root of x. , g(x) = 5x + 5

6. A satellite camera takes a rectangular-shaped picture. The smallest region that can be photographed is a 4-km by 4-km rectangle. As the camera zooms out, the length l and width w of the rectangle increase at a rate of 3 km/sec. How long does it take for the area A to be at least 4 times its original size?

Original size- >4km*4km=16 km2

4 times its original size---------------4*(16km2)-----64 Km2----------- > 8 km by 8 Km

Therefore

3km----------------------------- 1 sec

(8km-4km)---------------------x

X=4/3=1.33 sec

The answer is D) 1.33 sec

7. Find the inverse of the function.

f(x) = the cube root of quantity x divided by seven. - 9

to solve<span>
replace f(x) with y
switch x and y
solve for y
replace y with f</span>⁻¹(x)

f(x)=((x/7)-9) ^(1/3)

replace f(x) with y

y=((x/7)-9) ^(1/3)

switch x and y

x=((y/7)-9) ^(1/3)

solve for y

x^3=((y/7)-9)

x^3+9=y/7

y=7(x^3+9)
