B and C make sense to me.
B -222
Because he fell/descended 222 meters. And falling or going down produces a negative integer. Also, if you were actually doing the math to try to find where Oliver is currently located, you wouldn't add 222, or 0, or subtract -444. You would subtract 222.
In addition, be aware that the question is asking you an integer to represent a situation, not the answer of where Oliver is.
It should be the top left because the shaded area is below (or less than) the line -3/4x +1 and greater than the other line
a parallel line to that one above, will have the same exact slope, since parallel lines have the same slope.
We are given the following:
- parabola passes to both (1,0) and (0,1)
<span> - slope at x = 1 is 4 from the equation of the tangent line </span>
<span>First, we figure out the value of c or the y intercept, we use the second point (0, 1) and substitute to the equation of the parabola. W</span><span>hen x = 0, y = 1. So, c should be equal to 1. The</span><span> parabola is y = ax^2 + bx + 1 </span>
<span>Now, we can substitute the point (1,0) into the equation,
</span>0 = a(1)^2 + b(1) + 1
<span>0 = a + b + 1
a + b = -1 </span>
<span>The slope at x = 1 is equal to 4 which is equal to the first derivative of the equation.</span>
<span>We take the derivative of the equation ,
y = ax^2 + bx + 1</span>
<span>y' = 2ax + b
</span>
<span>x = 1, y' = 2
</span>4 = 2a(1) + b
<span>4 = 2a + b </span>
So, we have two equations and two unknowns,<span> </span>
<span>2a + b = 4 </span>
<span>a + b = -1
</span><span>
Solving simultaneously,
a = 5 </span>
<span>b = -6</span>
<span>Therefore, the eqution of the parabola is y = 5x^2 - 6x + 1 .</span>
