Help!! Find missing value for each quadratic function
Svetllana [295]

I'll do the first one to get you started. The answer is -3

=================================================

Explanation:

When x = -1, y = 0 as shown in the first column. The second column says that (x,y) = (0,1) and the third column says (x,y) = (1,0)

We'll use these three points to determine the quadratic function that goes through them all.

The general template we'll use is y = ax^2 + bx + c

------------

Plug in (x,y) = (0,1). Simplify

y = ax^2 + bx + c

1 = a*0^2 + b*0 + c

1 = 0a + 0b + c

1 = c

c = 1

------------

Plug in (x,y) = (-1,0) and c = 1

y = ax^2 + bx + c

0 = a*(-1)^2 + b(-1) + 1

0 = 1a - 1b + 1

a-b+1 = 0

a-b = -1

a = b-1

------------

Plug in (x,y) = (1,0), c = 1, and a = b-1

y = ax^2 + bx + c

0 = a(1)^2 + b(1) + 1 ... replace x with 1, y with 0, c with 1

0 = a + b + 1

0 = b-1 + b + 1 ... replace 'a' with b-1

0 = 2b

2b = 0

b = 0/2

b = 0

------------

If b = 0, then 'a' is...

a = b-1

a = 0-1

a = -1

------------

In summary so far, we found: a = -1, b = 0, c = 1

Therefore, y = ax^2 + bx + c turns into y = -1x^2 + 0x + 1 which simplifies to y = -x^2 + 1

------------

The last thing to do is plug x = 2 into this equation and simplify

y = -x^2 + 1

y = -2^2 + 1

y = -4 + 1

y = -3

dale has a square garden. He adds a 2-foot-wide walkway around his garden. If the total area of the walkway and garden is 196 sq
dem82 [27]
Let the side of the garden alone (without walkway) be x.  
Then the area of the garden alone is x^2.  
The walkway is made up as follows:

1) four rectangles of width 2 feet and length x, and 
 2) four squares, each of area 2^2 square feet.


The total walkway area is thus x^2 + 4(2^2) + 4(x*2).  

We want to find the dimensions of the garden.  To do this, we need to find the value of x.

Let's sum up the garden dimensions and the walkway dimensions:

x^2 + 4(2^2) + 4(x*2) = 196 sq ft

x^2 + 16 + 8x = 196 sq ft

x^2 + 8x - 180 = 0

(x-10(x+18) = 0

x=10 or x=-18.  We must discard x=-18, since the side length can't be negative.  We are left with x = 10 feet.

The garden dimensions are (10 feet)^2, or 100 square feet.

Alborosie
Your Question:
<span>Laurie buys four bags of candy with 10 pieces of candy in each bag. Her father then gives her 5 more pieces of candy. Laurie wants to give as much of her candy as she can to each of her six friends, and she wants to make sure they each get an equal number of pieces. How many pieces will be left over, if any, after Laurie gives her friends the candy?
My Answer:
If Laurie has four bags with ten pieces in each bag, and if her father gives her five more pieces,  she would have forty-five pieces and if she has six friends and wants to share it equally with six friends. Each friend would get 7 pieces.
