Take half of the coefficient of x (which is 2/5) and square it:

[ (1/2)(2/5) ]^2 = (1/5)^2 = 1/25, or 0.04

Thus, to rewrite x^2 + (2/5)x to include a perfect square trinomial,

x^2 + (2/5)x  = x^2 + (2/5)x + (1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or

                 (x+1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or (x + 1/5)^2 - 1/25

The factorization of A is y = (x - 8)(x + 7).
The factorization of B is y = (x + 1)(x - 4)(x - 5)

In order to find these, you must first find where each graph crosses the x-axis. In the first problem it does so at 8 and -7. In order to find the correct parenthesis for those, you need to write it out as a statement and then solve for 0. 

x = 8 ---> subtract 8 from both sides
x - 8 = 0
This means we use (x -  8) in our factorization. 

You then need to repeat the process until you have all the pieces. In the second problem, there will be 3 instead of 2 since it crosses the axis 3 times.

If f x) = [x – 3], find f (5.6 ).
Levart [38]

Answer:

2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function  f (x) = [x – 3]

We need to inster the value required which is 5.6

f (5.6) = [5.6 – 3]=

5.6-3 =2.6

f (5.6)=2.6
