Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 5 and 1, and whose leading coefficient is 5

Mathematics

Answer: the equation is

5x^2 -30x - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is one in which the highest power of the unknown is 2.

The general form of a quadratic equation is expressed as

ax^2 + bx + c

Where c is a constant and a is the leading coefficient

Assuming we want to write the quadratic equation in x, from the information given, the given roots are 5 and 1 and the leading coefficient is 5. We will just multiply the expression by the leading coefficient.

Therefore, the linear factors of the quadratic will be (x-5) and (x-1)

With the leading coefficient as 5, the equation becomes

5(x-5)(x-1)

= 5(x^2 - x - 5x + 5)

= 5(x^2 - 6x + 5)

= 5x^2 -30x - 25

Use the graph of f below. Assume the entire function is graphed below.<br> Find the domain
enot [183]

ANSWER

The domain of the function is

- 3 \leqslant x \leqslant 6

or

[-3,6]

EXPLANATION

The domain of a function refers to the values of x for which the function is defined.

From the graph, we can see that the function begins at (-3,6) and ends at (6,-4).

Therefore the function is defined for x=-3 to x=6.

Hence the domain of the function is

- 3 \leqslant x \leqslant 6

or

[-3,6]

If we wanted to prove quadrilateral MNOP was a parallelogram, which method below would not work?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

4) Doing two distance formulas to show that adjacent sides are not the same length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has opposite sides equals and parallel. Example of a parallelogram are rhombus, rectangle, square etc.

We can prove that a quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram. If we find the slopes of all four sides and compare those of the opposite ends, same slopes would indicate the opposite sides are parallel, hence the quarilateral is a parallelogram. We can also find the distance of two opposing sides, and slopes of twp opposing sides to determine whether it is a parallelogram or not. The most difficult approach is that diagonals bisect each other at same point.

However, using only two distance formulas will not give us enough information to determine whether a side is parallel or not.
