Answer:

y = 3x² - 6x - 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roots are x = - 4 and x = 6 then the factors are

(x + 4) and (x - 6) and the quadratic function is

y = a(x + 4)(x - 6) ← a is a multiplier, in this case 3, so

y = 3(x + 4)(x - 6) ← expand factors and distribute by 3

y = 3(x² - 2x - 24)

y = 3x² - 6x - 72

3x²-6x-72. The quadratic equation whose  roots are -4 and 6 with a leading coefficient of 3 is 3x²-6x-72.

The solutions of a quadratic equation are x = -4 and x = 6 with a leading coefficient of 3. The solutions are two real numbers which means that (x + 4) and (x - 6) are the factors of our unknown quadratic equation and the leading coefficient is 3.

3(x+4)(x-6)=0

Expand (x+4)(x-6):

3(x^{2} -2x-24)=0\\3x^{2} -6x-72=0 which is our quadratic equation.

What is 2x+y=4 and 2x+y=-1
butalik [34]

Answer:

{x,y} = {5,6}

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

 [1]    x = y - 1

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [2]

  [2]    2•(y -1) - y = 4

  [2]    y = 6

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

  [2]    y = 6

// By now we know this much :

   x = y-1

   y = 6

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x

   x = (6)-1 = 5

viktelen [127]

Answer:

The domain is the set of all possible x-values

  • Domain is the time here

The range is the resulting y-values

  • The range is the outside temperature is here
  • Function is decreasing between x= 0 to 3
  • It means the temperature is decreasing between midnight and 3 AM

Help i dont understand Pls help :(
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

x = 1?

Step-by-step explanation:

I think functions are basically just variables but extra so they both act the same. I'm not 100% sure but I Think

if f(x) = -5x + 1 when f(x) = 6,

replace f(x) with 6 so,

6 = 5x + 1

1 - 6 = 5x + 1 - 1

(subtract one on both sides to isolate the variable)

5 = 5x

5/5 = 5x/5

(to Actually isolate the variable lol

1 = x or x = 1

I believe is the answer? please comment if I'm wrong

*I WAS TOLD MY THOUGHT PROCESS IS WRONG ANYONE WHO SEES THIS PLEASE DISREGARD
