So for this problem, the x-axis is the horizontal line in the center.

Go to where -2 is on the x-axis as shown. Use your finger to trace along since that's usually helpful in finding the point.

Move your finger from -2 on the x-axis to where the solid black line is. On the right side of that, you can see that the y-axis holds the number 2 which is what the y equals for this solid line.

Therefore, the answer should be c.) y = 2

This graph represents a quadratic function. What is the function’s equation written in factored form and in vertex form?

creativ13 [48]

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

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

$f(x)=ax(x-4)$

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

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

Find the percent change from the first value to the second 50;30

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

-40%

Step-by-step explanation:

NV = new value

OV = old value

percent change = (NV - OV)/(OV) × 100%

percent change = (30 - 50)/(50) × 100%

percent change = -20/50 × 100%

percent change = -40%

Base of a prism is a right triangle with legs 3 feet and 4 feet. The height is 13 feet , what is the volume?

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Triangular prisms

Remember the formula for calculating volume is: Volume = Area by height. V = A X h.

For a triangle the area is calculated using the formula: Area = half of base by altitude. A = 0.5 X b X a.

So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h
