Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. −16x2 + 24x + 16 = 0
-8(2x2 - 3x - 2) = 0
-8(2x + 1 )(x - 2) = 0
x = -0.5, 2.
So the x-intercepts are (-0/5, 0) and (2, 0).
B. As the leading coefficients is negative (-16) the vertex of the graph will be a Maximum.
To find its coordinates we convert the function to vertex form:
f(x) = −16x2 + 24x + 16
= -16(x^2 - 1.5x) + 16
Completing the square on contents of the parentheses:
= -16 [(x - 0.75)^2 - 0.75^2] + 16
= -16(x - 0.75)^2 - 16 * -0.75^2 + 16
= -16(x - 0.75)^2 + 9 + 16
= -16(x - 0.75)^2 + 25.
So the coordinates of the vertex are (0.75, 25)
Answer:
28-4x
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Open most inner bracket and simplify
=18-2(x+x-5)
=18-2(2x-5)
Step 2: Expand brackets by multiplying 2 in and simplify
=18-2(2x)-2(-5)
=18-4x+10
=28-4x
Therefore the answer is 28-4x
The correct factorization is
2(x-2)²
96 fluid ounces < 13 cups
25 pounds > 384 ounces
8 yards = 288 inches
Have a nice day!
3a + 6b = 45
2a - 2b = -12....multiply by 3
----------------
3a + 6b = 45
6a - 6b = - 36 ...(result of multiplying by 3)
---------------add
9a = 9
a = 1
3a + 6b = 45
3(1) + 6b = 45
3 + 6b = 45
6b = 45 - 3
6b = 42
b = 7
solution is : (1,7)
