How can the function f(x)=x2-6x+8 be rewritten to determine its minimum value?

Mathematics

Answer:

Minimum value of f(x) = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We convert it to vertex form:

x^2 - 6x + 8

= (x - 3)^2 - 9 + 8

= (x - 3)^2 - 1

The minimum value occurs when (x - 3)^2 = 0  because a square has a minimum value of zero ( it cannot be negative for real values of x).

So  the function has a minimum value of -1.

Answer:

a = -40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(7a - 4) = (4a - 44)

7a - 4 = 4a - 44

7a = 4a - 44 + 4

7a = 4a - 40

7a - 4a = - 40

3a = - 40

3a/3 = -40/3

a = -40/3 or -13.3333 repeating

ΔABC and ΔXYZ are similar triangles. If BA = x + 9, AC = x + 7, YX = x + 5, and XZ = x + 4, find the value of x.
Nat2105 [25]

Solution:

we are given that ΔABC and ΔXYZ are similar triangles.

As we know , when two triangles are similar then the ratios of their corrsponding sides are equal.

Here we have

BA = x + 9, AC = x + 7, YX = x + 5, and XZ = x + 4

So we can write

\frac{x+9}{x+5}= \frac{x+7}{x+4}\\
\\
(x+9)(x+4)=(x+7)(x+5)\\
\\
x^2+13x+36=x^2+12x+35\\
\\
13x-12x=35-36\\
\\
x=-1\\
\\

Hence then value of x=-1.
