Answer:
One possible equation is
, which is equivalent to
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The factor theorem states that if
(where
is a constant) is a root of a function,
would be a factor of that function.
The question states that
and
are
-intercepts of this function. In other words,
and
would both set the value of this quadratic function to
. Thus,
and
would be two roots of this function.
By the factor theorem,
and
would be two factors of this function.
Because the function in this question is quadratic,
and
would be the only two factors of this function. In other words, for some constant
(
):
.
Simplify to obtain:
.
Expand this expression to obtain:
.
(Quadratic functions are polynomials of degree two. If this function has any factor other than
and
, expanding the expression would give a polynomial of degree at least three- not quadratic.)
Every non-zero value of
corresponds to a distinct quadratic function with
-intercepts
and
. For example, with
:
, or equivalently,
.
Answer:
(- 4, 27 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the right sides of both equations, that is
x² - 2x + 3 = - 2x + 19 ← subtract - 2x + 19 from both sides
x² - 16 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 4)(x + 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
Substitute these values into f(x) = - 2x + 19
f(4) = - 2(4) + 19 = - 8 + 19 = 11 ⇒ (4, 11 )
f(- 4) = - 2(- 4) + 19 = 8 + 19 = 27 ⇒ (- 4, 27 )
Answer:
12 Pints
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 8 pints (pt) in 1 gallon (gal). This means that 1 pint equals 1/8 gallon.
1.5 x 8
=12
Answer:
x² = 2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 1 = 2x
→ Minus 1 from both sides
x² = 2x - 1
Answer:
-21 - 15g
Step-by-step explanation:
You just have to distribute the -3 into the expression.
-3(7 + 5g) = -21 -15g
