Y squared + 5y - 84 equals what

Mathematics

iragen [17]3 years ago
7 0

The two possibilities for y are y = -12 and y = 7.

In order to solve this, we first just factor the equation. In order to factor a quadratic like this, we look for factors of the last number (-84) that add up to the middle number (5). In order to find that, we just need to list the factors.

1 * -84

-1 * 84

2 * -42

-2 * 42

3 * -28

-3 * 28

4 * -21

-4 * 21

7 * -12

- 7 * 12

This last factor is the one that adds to 5. Now we stick these two numbers along with y's into parenthesis.

(y - 7)(y + 12)

Now to solve, we can set each parenthesis equal to 0 to solve.

y - 7 = 0

y = 7

y + 12 = 0

y = -12

Which function represents a translation of the parent cubic function 8 units to the left? h(x) = x3 + 8 h(x) = x3 – 8 h(x) = (x
Ksju [112]

Using the definition of the Vertical shifts of graphs of the function :

"Suppose c>0,

To graph y=f(x)+c, shift the graph of y=f(x) upward c units.

To graph y=f(x)-c, shift the graph of y=f(x) downward c units"

Again we recall the definition of Horizontal shifts of graphs:

" suppose c>0,

the graph y=f(x-c), shift the graph of y=f(x) to the right by c units

the graph y=f(x+c), shift the graph of y=f(x) to the left by c units. "

consider f(x)=x^3 is the parent function.

h(x)=x^3+8 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3 upward by 8 units

h(x)=x^3-8 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3downward by 8 units

h(x)=(x+8)^3 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3 left by 8 units

h(x)=(x-8)^3 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3 right by 8 units.
