\dfrac{x^2-7x-18}{x^2+8x+12}=\dfrac{x^2+2x-9x-18}{x^2+6x+2x+12}=\dfrac{x(x+2)-9(x+2)}{x(x+6)+2(x+6)}\\\\=\dfrac{(x+2)(x-9)}{(x+6)(x+2)}=\dfrac{x-9}{x+6}

Answer:

  • y = -3x² + 7x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given quadratic function:</u>

  • y = ax² + bx + c

<u>Points on the graph:</u>

  • (-2,-35), (1,-5), (3,- 15)

<u>Substitute values of x and y and solve the system of equations:</u>

  • -35 = a(-2)² + b(-2) + c ⇒ -35 = 4a - 2b + c   ⇔ eq 1
  • -5 = a(1)² + b(1) + c ⇒ -5 = a + b + c               ⇔ eq 2
  • -15 = a(3)² + b(3) + c ⇒ -15 = 9a + 3b + c       ⇔ eq 3

<u>Subtract eq 2 from eq 1:</u>

  • -35 - (-5) = 4a - 2b + c - a - b - c
  • -30 = 3a - 3b
  • b = a + 10                                                         ⇔ eq 4

<u>Subtract eq 2 from eq 3:</u>

  • -15 - (-5) = 9a + 3b + c - a - b - c
  • -10 = 8a + 2b
  • b = -4a - 5                                                       ⇔ eq 5

<u>Compare eq 4 and eq 5, solve for a:</u>

  • a + 10 = -4a - 5
  • a + 4a = -5 - 10
  • 5a = -15
  • a = -3

<u>Find the value of b using eq 4:</u>

  • b = -3 + 10
  • b = 7

<u>Find the value of c using eq 2:</u>

  • -5 = -3 + 7 + c
  • c = -5 - 4
  • c = -9

<u>We now have a, b and c:, the function is:</u>

  • y = -3x² + 7x - 9

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Explained below :)

(I tried my best, sorry if it doesn't make sense.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: 1/4 - 1/8= ?

1: Find the common denominator (bottom number)

2: If the common denominator is 8 then you multiply 1/4 by 2/2 to get the denominator of 8. If you needed then you can multiply the other fraction to get the same denominator.

3: Once you get multiply that then you get 2/8 -1/8.

4: Subtract the numerator (top number) 1

5: Keep the numerator (8)

6: Your answer would be 1/8
