Answer:

Part a) The function’s equation written in vertex form is

f(x)=2(x-2)^2-8

Part b) The function’s equation written in factored form is equal to

f(x)=2x(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) What is the function’s equation written in vertex form?

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola written in vertex form is equal to

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k

where

a is a coefficient

(h,k) is the vertex

Looking at the graph

The vertex is the point (2,-8)

substitute

f(x)=a(x-2)^2-8

Find the value of the coefficient a

take one point from the graph

(0,0)

substitute in the equation

0=a(0-2)^2-8\\0=4a-8\\4a=8\\a=2

therefore

The function’s equation written in vertex form is

f(x)=2(x-2)^2-8

Part b) What is the function’s equation written in factored form?

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola written in factored form is equal to

f(x)=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)

where

a is a coefficient

x_1 and x_2 are the zeros or x-intercepts of the function

Remember that the x-intercept is the value of x when the value of the function is equal to zero

Looking at the graph

The zeros or x-intercepts of the function are

x=0 and x=4

so

f(x)=a(x-0)(x-4)

f(x)=ax(x-4)

Find the value of the coefficient a

take one point from the graph

(2,-8)

substitute

-8=a(2)(2-4)\\-8=-4a\\a=2

therefore

The function’s equation written in factored form is equal to

f(x)=2x(x-4)

Answer:

3x - 5 = 7x + 11 \\ 7x - 3x =  - 11 - 5 \\ 4x =  - 16 \\x =  -  \frac{16}{4}   \\    \color{yellow} \boxed{x =-4}

What is the equation of a circle whose radius is 16 units and center is at (2,-5)?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

  • The general equation of the circle is
  • ( {x - a})^{2}  +  ({y - b})^{2}  =  {r}^{2}  \\ therefore \:  we \: \: have \:  \\ ( {x - 2})^{2}  + (y - ( - 5)) {}^{2}  =  ({16})^{2}  \\  ({x - 2})^{2}  + ( {y + 5})^{2}  = 256
