Answer:

a) b = 8, c = 13

b) The equation of graph B is y = -x² + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

* Let us talk about the transformation

If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then the new function g(x) = - f(x)

If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then the new function g(x) = f(-x)

If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

In the given question

∵ y = x² - 3

∵ The graph is translated 4 units to the left

→ That means substitute x by x + 4 as 4th rule above

∴ y = (x + 4)² - 3

→ Solve the bracket to put it in the form of y = ax² + bx + c

∵ (x + 4)² = (x + 4)(x + 4) = (x)(x) + (x)(4) + (4)(x) + (4)(4)

∴ (x + 4)² = x² + 4x + 4x + 16

→ Add the like terms

∴ (x + 4)² = x² + 8x + 16

→ Substitute it in the y above

∴ y = x² + 8x + 16 - 3

→ Add the like terms

∴ y = x² + 8x + 13

∴ b = 8 and c = 13

a) b = 8, c = 13

∵ The graph A is reflected in the x-axis

→ That means y will change to -y as 1st rule above

∴ -y = (x² - 3)

→ Multiply both sides by -1 to make y positive

∴ y = -(x² - 3)

→ Multiply the bracket by the negative sign

∴ y = -x² + 3

b) The equation of graph B is y = -x² + 3

At 2:00 PM a car's speedometer reads 30 mi/h. At 2:20 PM it reads 50 mi/h. Show that at some time between 2:00 and 2:20 the acce

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Let v(t) be the velocity of the car t hours after 2:00 PM. Then $\frac{v(1/3)-v(0)}{1/3-0}=\frac{50 \:{\frac{mi}{h} }-30\:{\frac{mi}{h} }}{1/3\:h-0\:h} = 60 \:{\frac{mi}{h^2} }$ . By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a number c such that $0 < c$ with $v'(c)=60 \:{\frac{mi}{h^2}}$ . Since v'(t) is the acceleration at time t, the acceleration c hours after 2:00 PM is exactly $60 \:{\frac{mi}{h^2}}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Mean Value Theorem says,

Let be a function that satisfies the following hypotheses:

f is continuous on the closed interval [a, b].
f is differentiable on the open interval (a, b).

Then there is a number c in (a, b) such that

$f'(c)=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$

Note that the Mean Value Theorem doesn’t tell us what c is. It only tells us that there is at least one number c that will satisfy the conclusion of the theorem.

By assumption, the car’s speed is continuous and differentiable everywhere. This means we can apply the Mean Value Theorem.

Let v(t) be the velocity of the car t hours after 2:00 PM. Then $v(0 \:h) = 30 \:{\frac{mi}{h} }$ and $v( \frac{1}{3} \:h) = 50 \:{\frac{mi}{h} }$ (note that 20 minutes is $20/60=1/3$ of an hour), so the average rate of change of v on the interval $[0 \:h, \frac{1}{3} \:h]$ is

$\frac{v(1/3)-v(0)}{1/3-0}=\frac{50 \:{\frac{mi}{h} }-30\:{\frac{mi}{h} }}{1/3\:h-0\:h} = 60 \:{\frac{mi}{h^2} }$

We know that acceleration is the derivative of speed. So, by the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time c in $(0 \:h, \frac{1}{3} \:h)$ at which $v'(c)=60 \:{\frac{mi}{h^2}}$ .

c is a time time between 2:00 and 2:20 at which the acceleration is $60 \:{\frac{mi}{h^2}}$ .

I would say (I am abbreviating square root to sqrt)

1. 4 sqrt(8488) = 4 sqrt(2x2x2122) = 8 sqrt(2122)

2. 3 sqrt(6936) = 3 sqrt(6x34x34) = 102 sqrt (6)

3. 2 sqrt(8648) = 2 sqrt(2x2x2162) = 4 sqrt(2162)

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

$11,025

Step-by-step explanation:

April: 150hrs

May-August: 200hrs x 4 = 800 hrs

September: 100 hrs

$10.50/hr pay rate

150+800+100 = $1,050

$1,050 x $10.50 = $11,025
