Answer:

The vertex of the function is at point (-4,-1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

$f(x)=(x+4)^2-1$

Solution:

The vertex form of a function is given by:

$f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$

where $(h,k)$ is the vertex of the function. At this point the function has the maximum or minimum value.

Writing the given function in the vertex form.

$f(x)=(x-(-4))^2+(-1)$

On comparing the above function with the standard form we find that:

$a=1\\h=-4\\k=-1$

Thus, the vertex of the function is at point (-4,-1)

A 25 ft. ladder resting against the side of a building forms a right triangle with the ground. The bottom of the ladder is 7 ft.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The correct answer is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this you will need to use the pathagreom theorum

a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}

A= one side lenth

B= the secons side lenth

C= hypotnuse

It is helpfull to draw out the situation

you know that the latter is 25 ft, that is your hypotnuse

you also know that the 7 ft away from the base of the building is one of the side lenths, lets call it side a

so plug the numbers into the equation

7^2 + b^2 = 25 ^2

you leave b^2 alone because that is the side you are trying to find

now square 7 and 25 but leave b^2 alone

49 + b^2 = 625

now subtract 49 from both sides

b^2 = 576

now to get rid of the square of b you have to do the opposite and square root both sides removing the square of the B and giving you the answer of..........

B= 24

Hope this helped!! I tryed to explain it as simpil as possiable

A lawyer has found 60 investors for a limited partnership to purchase an inner-city apartment building, with each contributing e

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

1. The lawyer has 34 investors that contribute with $3,000 and has 26 investors that contribute with $6,000.

2. The jar has 26 nickels and 44 dimes that worth $5.70.

3. The concession stand has sold 1600 sodas and 1400 hotdogs

Step-by-step explanation:

For all the problems we are going to follow the same process that will consist on 1. Define the variables. 2. Formulate the system of two linear equations 3. Solve by the elimination method 4. Give the answer.

First problem.

- Variables:

x = number of investors that contribute with $3,000

y = number of investors that contribute with $6,000

- System of equations.

First equation will be the result of adding the number of investors that will give us a total of 60 investors then:

x + y = 60

Second equation is the result of multypling the number of investors by its invest and adding between them to get the $258,000 they have raised:

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

The system will be:

x + y = 60

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

- Solve by the elimination method.

To cancel x we are going to multiply by -3000 in both sides of the first equation and we will leave the second equation the same but in the first row to make easier the calculations then:

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

(x + y ) (-3,000) = 60 (-3,000) solve the multiplications

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

-3,000x - 3,000y = -180,000 solve the operations

0 + 3,000y = 78,000 clear y

$y = \frac{78,000}{3,000}$ solve the division

y = 26

For calculate x, replace the y value in the first equation and solve it

x + 26 = 60

x = 60 - 26

x = 34

- Answer

The lawyer has 34 investors that contribute with $3,000 and has 26 investors that contribute with $6,000.

Second problem

- Variables:

x = number of nickels

y = number of dimes

- System of equations.

First equation will be the result of adding the number of nickels and dimes that will give us a total of 70 coins in the jar then:

x + y = 70

Second equation is the result of multypling the number of coins by its value and adding between them to get the $5.70 that the jar worth:

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

The system will be:

x + y = 70

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

- Solve by the elimination method.

To cancel x we are going to multiply by -0.05 in both sides of the first equation and we will leave the second equation the same but in the first row to make easier the calculations then:

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

(x + y ) (-0.05) = 70 (-0.05) solve the multiplications

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

-0.05x - 0.05y = -3.50 solve the operations

0 + 0.05y = 2.20 clear y

$y = \frac{2.20}{0.05}$ solve the division

y = 44

For calculate x, replace the y value in the first equation and solve it

x + 44 = 70

x = 70 - 44

x = 26

- Answer

The jar has 26 nickels and 44 dimes that worth $5.70.

Third problem.

- Variables:

x = number of sodas sold by $2

y = number of hotdogs sold by $3

- System of equations.

First equation will be the result of adding the number of sodas and hotdogs that is of 3000 then:

x + y = 3000

Second equation is the result of multypling the number of sodas and hotdogs by its price and adding between them to get the $7400 of the receipts:

2x + 3y = 7400

The system will be:

x + y = 3000

2x + 3y = 7400

- Solve by the elimination method.

To cancel x we are going to multiply by -2 in both sides of the first equation and we will leave the second equation the same but in the first row to make easier the calculations then:

2x + 3y = 7400

(x + y ) (-2) = 3000 (-2) solve the multiplications

2x + 3y = 7400

-2x - 2y = -6000 solve the operations

0 + 1y = 1400 clear y

$y = \frac{1400}{1}$ solve the division

y = 1400

For calculate x, replace the y value in the first equation and solve it

x + 1400 = 3000

x = 3000 - 1400

x = 1600

- Answer

The concession stand has sold 1600 sodas and 1400 hotdogs

3) An existing track is perpendicular to y=1/2x + 2 and passes through B(7,5)

stira [4]

Answer:

2. $y=\frac{1}{2}x +3$

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The line will be parallel to the current track which means they have the same slope. To write the equation, use the slope m=1/2 and the point (2,4) in point slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$

This is the equation of the line. You can convert it to slope intercept form:

$y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)\\y-4 = \frac{1}{2}x -1 \y=\frac{1}{2}x +3$
