We are comparing maxima. From the graph we know that the max of one graph is +2 at x = -2. What about the other graph? Need to find the vertex to find the max.
Complete the square of <span>h(x) = -x^2 + 4x - 2:
</span>h(x) = -x^2 + 4x - 2 = -(x^2 - 4x) -2
= -(x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4) - 2
=-(x^2 - 4x + 4) -2+4
= -(x-2)^2 + 2 The equation describing this parabola is y=-(x-2)^2 + 2, from which we know that the maximum value is 2, reached when x = 2.
The 2 graphs have the same max, one at x = -2 and one at x = + 2.
D. There would be one less the second time because one would already be picked.
Each batch gives you 3 dozen and you need 1 1/2 cups for each batch of cookies
she uses 6 cups in total, so divide 6 by 1 1/2 to get the number of batches
6 ÷ 1 1/2 = 4 batches
so 4 batches × 3 dozen cookies = 12 dozen cookies
Answer:
- <em>To solve these first swap x and y, solve for y and name it inverse function</em>
3. <u>y = -8x + 2</u>
- x = -8y + 2
- 8y = -x + 2
- y = -x/8 + 2/8
- y = -(18)x + 1/4
f⁻¹(x) = -(18)x + 1/4
-----------------------------------------
4.<u> y = (2/3)x - 5</u>
- x = (2/3)y - 5
- (2/3)y = x + 5
- y = (3/2)x + (3/2)5
- y = 1.5x + 7.5
f⁻¹(x) = 1.5x + 7.5
-----------------------------------------
5. <u>f(x) = 2x² - 6</u>
- x = 2y² - 6
- 2y² = x + 6
- y² = 1/2x + 3
- y =
f⁻¹(x) =
-----------------------------------------
6. <u>y = (x - 3)²</u>
- x = (y - 3)²
= y - 3- y = 3 +
f⁻¹(x) = 3 +
The answer is 25.5 as a decimal, as a fraction it is 51/2.
