<u>Given</u>:

Given that the graph of the quadratic function.

We need to determine the value of a in the function's equation.

<u>Value of a:</u>

The value of a can be determined using the formula,

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

where (h,k) is the vertex and a is a constant.

From the graph, it is obvious, that the vertex of the parabola is (0,9).

Thus, substituting the vertex (h,k) = (0,9) in the above formula, we get;

y=a(x-0)^2+9

y=ax^2+9  -------- (1)

Let us substitute any one of the coordinate that the graph passes through to determine the value of a.

Let us substitute the point (3,0) in the equation (1), we have;

  0=a(3)^2+9

  0=9a+9

-9=9a

-1=a

Thus, the value of a is -1.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

The sum of 3 consecutive multiples of 4 is 120. Find the numbers.
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The required numbers are: 36, 40, 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first number = 4x

Second number = 4(x+1)

Third number = 4(x+2)

There sum = 120

We need to find the numbers

We can write:

4x+4(x+1)+4(x+2)=120\\4x+4x+4+4x+8=120\\12x+12=120\\12x=120-12\\12x=108\\x=\frac{108}{12}\\x=9

So, we get x = 9

Now, finding the numbers:

first number = 4x = 4(9) =36

Second number = 4(x+1) = 4(9+1) = 4(10) = 40

Third number = 4(x+2) = 4(9+2) = 4(11) = 44

So, The required numbers are: 36, 40, 44

The average income, I, in dollars, of a lawyer with an age of x years is modeled with the following function: I = -425x^2 + 45,5
lord [1]

We are given

The average income, I, in dollars is

I=-425x^2+45500x-650000

(a)

now, we are given

average income is $275000

so, I=275000

now, we can set them equal

and then we can solve for x

275000=-425x^2+45500x-650000

-425x^2+45500x-925000=0

we will have to use quadratic formula

x=\frac{-45500+\sqrt{45500^2-4\left(-425\right)\left(-925000\right)}}{2\left(-425\right)}:\quad \frac{-\sqrt{45500^2-1572500000}+45500}{850}

x=\frac{-45500-\sqrt{45500^2-4\left(-425\right)\left(-925000\right)}}{2\left(-425\right)}:\quad \frac{\sqrt{45500^2-1572500000}+45500}{850}

we get

x=27.28199

x=79.776

we need to find youngest age

It means that we need to choose smallest value

so,

x=27............Answer

(b)

we are given

x=40

so, we can plug it and find I

I=-425(40)^2+45500(40)-650000

I=490000..............Answer

Which of the following are vertical asymptotes of the function y = 2cot(3x) + 4? Check all that apply. A.x = pi/3 B.x = +/- pi/2
Kisachek [45]
Vertical asymptotes occur when the denominator of a rational is 0, whilst not zeroing out the numerator, making the rational, undefined, in this case

\bf y=2cot(3x)+4\implies y=2\cdot \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(3x)}+4\impliedby \textit{if \underline{sin(3x)} turns to 0}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{let's check}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;A)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( 3\frac{\pi }{3} \right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( \pi \right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{0}\impliedby unde f ined

\bf B)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( 3\frac{\pm\pi }{2} \right)}\implies\cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( \frac{\pm3\pi }{2} \right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{\pm 1}\implies \pm cos(3x)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;C)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin\left( 3(2\pi )\right)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(6\pi )}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{0}\impliedby unde f ined&#10;\\\\\\&#10;D)\qquad \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(3(0))}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{sin(0)}\implies \cfrac{cos(3x)}{0}\impliedby unde f ined
