Answer:
- a = -2/3, b = 8, c = -24
- y-intercept: (0, -24)
- x = -b/(2a) = -8/(2(-2/3)) = 8(4/3)
- x = 6
- DOWN
- Max: (6, 0)
- Vertex: (6, 0)
- Domain: {x | x ∈ ℝ}
- Range: {x | x ≤ 0}
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a, b, c, compare the given function to ...
f(x) = ax² +bx +c
You will see that ...
- a = -2/3
- b = 8
- c = -24
The y-intercept is the function value for x=0. It is the constant term:
y-intercept = f(0) = -24
Use the above values of a, b to find the line of symmetry.
Per the calculation, the line of symmetry is ...
x = 6
The negative leading coefficient tells you the parabola opens DOWN.
Because it opens down, the vertex at (6, 0) is a Maximum.
As with any polynomial, the domain is "all real numbers", hence any x that is an element of Reals.
The range is all values below the vertex (including the vertex), so is ...
x ≤ 0
The main idea is the number of marbles and the denominator of the probability. All you have to do is multiply the fraction by a fraction which is equal to 1 which makes the denominator equal to 63. We know 63 is a multiple of 9. 9 goes 7 times in 63 so we multiple the fraction with
which gives,
which when evaluated gives
and the numerator is the number of red marbles in the bag. So there are 14 red marbles in the bag :D
