The equation in standard form is 2x^2 + 7x - 15=0. Factoring it gives you (2x-3)(x+5)= 0. That's the first one. The second one requires you to now your formula for the axis of symmetry which is x = -b/2a with a and b coming from your quadratic. Your a is -1 and your b is -2, so your axis of symmetry is
x= -(-2)/2(-1) which is x = 2/-2 which is x = -1. That -1 is the x coordinate of the vertex. You could plug that back into the equation and solve it for y, which is the easier way, or you could complete the square on the quadratic...let's plug in x to find y. -(-1)^2 - 2(-1)-1 = 0. So the vertex is (-1, 0). That's the first choice given. For the last one, since it is a negative quadratic it will be a mountain instead of a cup, meaning it doesn't open upwards, it opens downwards. Those quadratics will ALWAYS have a max value as opposed to a min value which occurs with an upwards opening parabola. This one is also the first choice because of the way the equation is written. There is no side to side movement (the lack of parenthesis tells us that) so the x coordinate for the vertex is 0. The -1 tells us that it has moved down from the origin 1 unit; hence the y coordinate is -1. The vertex is a max at (0, -1)

Answer:

x = 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

AS there are parallel lines:

4/12 = 7/x

4x = 84

x = 84/4 = 21.

Drake buys a ring that costs $8,000, which depreciates at a rate of 9.5% per year.

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

$1129.93

Step-by-step explanation:

100 - 9.5 = 90.5

8000 - 90.5 = 7909.5

7909.5 ÷ 7 = 1129.93

What did sin theta/theta whisper worksheet answer key worksheet?

djyliett [7]

To evaluate
$\lim_{\theta \to 0} \frac{\sin\theta}{\theta}$

First, we input 0, for theta in the function to obtain:
$\frac{\sin0}{0} = \frac{0}{0}$

This is an indeterminate form.

So, we apply L'Hopital's rule by differentiating the numerator and the denominator as follows:

$\lim_{\theta \to 0} \frac{\sin\theta}{\theta}=\lim_{\theta \to 0} \frac{ \frac{d}{d\theta} (\sin\theta)}{\frac{d}{d\theta}\theta} \\ \\ =\lim_{\theta \to 0} \frac{\cos\theta}{1}=\cos0=1$

The question says “The image shows the front of Bob’s barn.Bob plans on painting the front of his barn,not including the doors o

AleksandrR [38]

Bob need to paint 205 square feet.

Solution:

Length of the door = 7 ft

Breadth of the door = 5 ft

Area of the door = length × breadth

= 7 × 5

= 35

Area of the door = 35 ft²

The given image is a trapezoid.

Top base = 12 ft

Bottom base = 20 ft

Area of the trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2} \times\text{sum of the parallel sides}\times\text{height}$

$$=\frac{1}{2}\times(12+20)}\times15$

$$=\frac{1}{2}\times 32\times15$

= 240

Area of the trapezoid = 240 ft²

Surface area to paint = Area of the trapezoid – Area of the door

= 240 ft² – 35 ft²

= 205 ft²

Hence Bob need to paint 205 square feet.
