Which quadratic equation defines the function that has zeros at -8 and 6?

1 answer:

5 0

Well, if 'y' has zeros at x=6 and x=-8,
then 'y' must be the product

y = (x - 6) (x + 8)

Perform the multiplication to get the quadratic function:

y = x² + 2x - 48

The area of a field shaped like a right triangle is 750yd^2.One leg of the field is fenced with wood costing $5/yd. the remainde

Elenna [48]

Assume that
a and b = the two legs of the right triangle.
c = the hypotenuse.

The area of the right triangle is 750 yd², therefore
(1/2)*a*b = 750
ab = 1500 (1)

The perimeter is 150yd, therefore
a + b + c = 150 (2)

Let the side fenced with wood be a, at $5/yd. Sides b and c are fenced with steel at $10/y. The total cost is $1200, therefore
5a + 10b + 10c = 1200
or
a + 2b + 2c = 240 (3)

From (2), obtain
c = 150 - a - b (4)

Substitute (4) into (3)
a + 2b + 2(150 - a - b) = 240
-a + 300 = 240
a = 60

From (1), obtain
60b = 1500
b = 25

From (4), obtain
c = 150 - 60 - 25 = 65

Answer:
A. The length of the leg fenced with wood is 60 yd.
B. The length of the leg fenced with steel is 25 yd.

What are the properties of the point (2, 0) in this graphed function?

Alex73 [517]

The point (2,0) represents a relative minimum and an x-intercept.

<h3>How to determine the property?</h3>

The missing graphed function is added as an attachment

The point (2,0) means that:

x = 2 and y = 0

On the attached graph, we can see that the graph touches the x-axis at (2,0); this represents the x-intercept

Also, the graph has a minimum at (2,0); this represents the relative minimum

Hence, the point (2,0) represents a relative minimum and an x-intercept.

An arithmetic progression is simply a progression with a common difference among consecutive terms.

The sum of multiplies of 6 between 8 and 70 is 390
The sum of multiplies of 5 between 12 and 92 is 840
The sum of multiplies of 3 between 1 and 50 is 408
The sum of multiplies of 11 between 10 and 122 is 726
The sum of multiplies of 9 between 25 and 100 is 567
The sum of the first 20 terms is 630
The sum of the first 15 terms is 480
The sum of the first 32 terms is 3136
The sum of the first 27 terms is -486
The sum of the first 51 terms is 2193

(a) Sum of multiples of 6, between 8 and 70

There are 10 multiples of 6 between 8 and 70, and the first of them is 12.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 12}$

$\mathbf{n = 10}$

$\mathbf{d = 6}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{10} = \frac{10}2(2*12 + (10 - 1)6)}$

$\mathbf{S_{10} = 390}$

(b) Multiples of 5 between 12 and 92

There are 16 multiples of 5 between 12 and 92, and the first of them is 15.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 15}$

$\mathbf{n = 16}$

$\mathbf{d = 5}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{S_{16} = \frac{16}2(2*15 + (16 - 1)5)}$

$\mathbf{S_{16} = 840}$

(c) Multiples of 3 between 1 and 50

There are 16 multiples of 3 between 1 and 50, and the first of them is 3.

This means that:

$\mathbf{a = 3}$

$\mathbf{n = 16}$

$\mathbf{d = 3}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:

$\mathbf{S_n = \frac n2(2a + (n - 1)d)}$

$\mathbf{n = 11}$

$\mathbf{d = 11}$

The sum of n terms of an AP is:
