What is the equation for the quadratic function with roots -10 and -8 and a vertex at (-9, -3).

Mazyrski [523]3 years ago

Equation with roots -10 and -8 is: y = a(x + 10)(x + 8) = a(x^2 + 18x + 80) = ax^2 + 18ax + 80a . . . . . . . . (1)
Equation with vertex at (-9, -3) is y = a(x + 9)^2 - 3 = a(x^2 + 18x + 81) - 3 = ax^2 + 18ax + 81a - 3 . . . . . . . . (2)
From (1) and (2), we have
80a = 81a - 3
a = 3

Therefore, required equation is:
y = 3x^2 + 18(3)x + 80(3) = 3x^2 + 54x + 240

A square vegetable garden has side lengths of 14 feet. You plant flowers in the center portion of the garden,
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Area of tomato section is 45 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area for garden is the area of a square with side 14 ft.

That means the garden's total area is the square of its side:

Area of a square of side "x" = x*x=x^2, then for our case where the square's side is 14 ft, the square's area becomes: Area=(14\,ft)^2 = 196\, ft^2

Inside this area, there is a square of side 4 ft reserved for flowers (and what is left -the rest- for veggies). The area of the flower section is then: (4\,ft)^2=16\,ft^2. Therefore the rest of the garden that is intended for veggies is (the total garden area minus the flower section area) = 196\,ft^2-16\,ft^2=180\,ft^2

This remaining veggie are is to be divided in four (4) equal parts, and one of them destined for tomato plants. The area of each of the veggie sections is one fourth of the remaining area: \frac{180\,ft^2}{4} =45\, ft^2

So in particular the tomato plant area is 45 ft^2

(Combining Equation)What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first ?-2x + y = 0 -7x + 3y = 2
Tpy6a [65]

We are given the following two equations

\begin{gathered} -2x+y=0\quad eq.1 \\ -7x+3y=2\quad eq.2 \end{gathered}

Let us subtract the second equation from the first equation.

Therefore, the result of subtracting the second equation from the first is

5x-2y=-2

The equation of a circle is given below: (x - 0.5) + (y - 3.5)=16 what is it’s center and radius
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Circle equation: (x - h) + (x - k) = r²

(h, k) = center

r = radius

The center (0.5, 3.5)

To find the radius, take the square root of 16.

√16 = 4

The radius is 4.

Best of Luck!

X+y=8<br> 2x+y=2 <br> Any one out there please help me out
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

(- 6, 14 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + y = 8 → (1)

2x + y = 2 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 1 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

- x - y = - 8 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y, that is

x = - 6

Substitute x = - 6 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

- 6 + y = 8 ( add 6 to both sides )

y = 14

solution is (- 6, 14 )

Hich of the following are the coordinates of the vertex of y = x2 − 10x + 2?
ANEK [815]
The vertex is in essence the turning point of the parabola y = x²<span> − 10x + 2

the x coordinate of the turning point = </span>- \frac{b}{2a}
                                                         = - \frac{-(10)}{2(1)}
                                                         =  5

when x = 5, y = (5)² - 10(5) + 2
                      = -23

Thus coordinate or vertex is ( 5, -23)
