3. What are the factors of<br> 9x2

Find the axis of symmetry of the graph of the function. (5 points) f(x) = 3x2 + 12x + 9

Kryger [21]

Considering the definition of axis of symmetry, the axis of symmetry of the graph of the function f(x) = 3x²+ 12x+ 9 is x=-2.

<h3>Axis of symmetry</h3>

An axis of symmetry is an imaginary reference line that, when dividing any shape into two parts, its opposite points are equidistant from each other, that is, they are symmetrical.

In other words, the axis of symmetry is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two congruent halves.

The axis of symmetry is the line perpendicular to the "x" axis that contains the vertex of the function, that is, it always passes through the vertex of the parabola. So the x-coordinate of the vertex is the equation of the axis of symmetry.

That is, in a quadratic function that has the form:

f(x)= ax² + bx + c

the axis of symmetry is a vertical line and it is defined as $x=\frac{-b}{2a}$ .

<h3>Axis of symmetry of f(x) = 3x² + 12x + 9</h3>

In this case, you know:

a= 3
b=12
c=9

Replacing in the definition of axis of symmetry:

$x=\frac{-12}{2x3}$

Solving:

$x=\frac{-12}{6}$

Finally, the axis of symmetry of the graph of the function f(x) = 3x²+ 12x+ 9 is x=-2.

Write a problem that could be modeled with y=200(0.9).

Lunna [17]

First, I need to decide what equation this is like.

I believe this is y=mx.

We know that x is typically the input, and m is the constant function.

Y is the output.

So the original function may have been y=200x.

The only difference is now we've been given something to apply to the equation, in place of x.

2. <em>Imagine a cloning machine. Whatever you put in, you get a copy of, and the original thing you put in. Its function would be y=2x. Let's pretend we decided to put three things in; 3 would go where x is. </em>

<em>Y would be the result of 3 copies and their originals, or 2(3).</em>

<em>Now, when someone else decides to use the cloning machine, they may put any number in, but the only properties that will change are y and x, not m.</em>

<em>The function will remain y = 2x. Any number could go in place of x, and multiplying x by 2 will give you the y. As long as you have a different value for x, the y will never be the same.</em>

3. So now we have an understanding of what it means, we see that we have been given an x value to insert; an input.

A more practical example could be someting with money. This won't be entirely realistic, because we are dealing with a fraction of a number and another large number.

4. I decided to go with flour. I wanted the 200 to represent pennies, or cents. Before I landed on this, I looked up the cost of flour per pound. I found that the average is .43 dollars, which isn't terribly close to two dollars. But maybe the flour is high quality, so we can stick with that.

5. Seeing that this equation, y=200x, means we are charging 200 cents, or two dollars, we can write a problem from here.

Sylvia is in charge of selling home-harvested flour from an organic farm. She charges two dollars per pound of flower. Today, her next-door neighbors hope to buy a ninth of pound of flour, and they insist on paying with pennies. How many pennies do they need to pay for their order?

Connor is stuck in a traffic jam on a single-lane road. The traffic report tells him the traffic jam stretches for 5.5 miles. If

dedylja [7]

Answer:

2323

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the questions above, the report from the traffic jam says the traffics jam stretches for 5.5 miles

As Connor assumes that each car is about 12.5 long

The next step is to convert 5.5 miles into feet.

Since 1 mile = 5280

To convert 5.5 miles, 5.5 x 5280 = 29040 feet

To find the numbers of cars struck in traffic, we will have to divide 29040 by 12.5

29040/12.5 = 2323.3 ≅ 2323

The distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel can be modeled by the equation d equals 20 times the sine of t

kodGreya [7K]

We have the function d, representing the distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel:

$d(t)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)+10$

If we consider the position of the person at t = 0, which is:

$d(0)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}\cdot0)+10=20\cdot0+10=10$

This position, for t = 0, will be the same position as when the argument of the sine function is equal to 2π, which is equivalent to one cycle of the wheel. Then, we can find the value of t:

$\begin{gathered} \sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)=\sin (2\pi) \\ \frac{\pi}{30}\cdot t=2\pi \\ t=2\pi\cdot\frac{30}{\pi} \\ t=60 \end{gathered}$

Then, the wheel will repeat its position after t = 60 seconds.

Answer: 60 seconds.
