Answer:

(x + 6)(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the factors of the constant term (48 ) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (14 )

The factors are + 6 and + 8

since 6 × 8 = 48 and 6 + 8 = 14

x² + 14x + 48 = (x + 6)(x + 8) ← in factored form

Order the group of quadratic functions from widest to narrowest graph.

Alika [10]

In a quadratic function, y = a(x²) the smaller the coefficient "a", the larger is the parabola:
From widest to narrowest:

1) y=1/3x² (Widest)

2) y= -1/2x² (Wider)

3) y=-9x² (narrowest)

A new car is purchased for $17,000 and over time its value depreciates by one half every 3 years. What is the value of the car 1

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The answer is "$238".

Step-by-step explanation:

Current worth $= \$ 17,000$

depreciates by $\frac{1}{2}$ in 3 years.

time= 19 years

depreciates rate=?

Using formula:

$\to \text{Worth= Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}$

$\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t$

calculates depreciate value in 3 year $= \frac{1}{2} \times 17,000$

$= 8,500$

so,

$A_t=8,500\\\\A_0=17,000\\\\t=3\ years$

$\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t\\\\\to 8,500= 17,000(1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{8,500}{17,000}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{1}{2}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{3}}= (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to 0.793700526 = (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.793700526)\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.8)\\\\\to r= 0.2 \times 100 \\\\\to r= 20 \%$
