Answer:

Vertex form

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several forms of the quadratic equation

Standard form: y = ax^2 + bx + c which is useful for the quadratic equation and the axis of symmetry

Factored form: y = (ax - c)(bx - d)   which will give us the zeros

and

Vertex form: y = a(x - h)2 + k where ( h,k) is the vertex

The maximum and minimum would be the value of k

It would be maximum when a >0 and minimum when a<0

Answer:

ax² + bx + c

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of a quadratic equation that is easy to use when finding the maximum or minimum value of the function is ax² + bx + c.

Suppose a quadratic function:

f(x) = 2x² - 8x + 9

Use ( -b/2a ,  f(-b/2a) ).

-b/2a

a = 2

b = -8

-(-8)/2(2)

8/4

= 2

f(2) = 2(2)² - 8(2) + 9

f(2) = 2(4) - 8(2) + 9

f(2) = 8 - 16 + 9

f(2) = 1

The minimum value of this quadratic function is (2, 1).

It represents a minimum value because a > 0.

Evaluate,

With 10 to the power to a negative number, it's easier. 
Here's a trick: The negative number is the places to the right of the decimal. The last number is a 1, while the rest are 0s.

From this, we get: 10^{-4}=\boxed{0.0001}

HELP ME ON THIS PLSS Kathy swims at least 6 laps everyday. Write an inequality to show how long Kathy swims each day.
mina [271]

Answer:

x ≥ 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Kathy swims at least 6 laps every day.

To find: Write an inequality to show how long Kathy swims each day.

Solution : We have given that Kathy swims at least 6 laps every day.

We can see from given statement Kathy can swim 6 laps or greater then 6 laps in a day.

Then we use greater than or equal to sign  ( for at least)

Since x ≥ 6.

Therefore, x ≥ 6.

andre [41]
So the ratio to longboard to short board is 1:4, the total of that ratio is 5. 35 ÷ 5 = 7. now we're going to take those ratios and multiply 1 × 7 = 7 and 4 × 7 = 28. Your final answer is B. to confirm your answer add 28 + 7.

A company makes a $5 profit on each non-faulty product it sells. Approximately 2% of the products manufactured are faulty.
galben [10]

Step-by-step answer:

The steps are much easier to follow when we know how many product it sells.  The number does not really matter, because we need the profit per item.

Say, the company made and sold 100 items of the product.

The revenue = 100*5 = $500.

On the average, 2 out of 100 are defective and need to be replaced at a cost of $100 each, so

replacement cost = 2* 100 = 200

So net profit for 100 items = $500 -$200 = $300

Net profit for each item = $300/100 = $3.00

Remark: since the product is replaced, no refund is necessary, so revenue stays at $300.
