R = 10, T = 20

OK. Calculate the length of segment RT:

|RT| = |20 - 10| = |10| = 10

Divide |RT| into a ratio of 2:3

2 + 3 = 5

10 : 5 = 2

Therefore we have

|RS| = 2 · 2 = 4 and |ST| = 3 · 2 = 6 (4 + 6 = 10 CORRECT)

T = R + 4 and T = T - 6

T = 10 + 4 = 14; T = 20 - 6 = 14 CORRECT

<h3>Your answer is T = 14.</h3>

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with vertex (5,-4) and y-intercept (0,96). Write your answer in this form: (x1,y1),(x2,y2)

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The x-intercepts are

(x1,y1)=(4,0)

(x2,y2)=(6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the given parabola is

$(y-k)=a(x-h)^{2}$

we have

the vertex is the point (5,-4)

substitute

$(y+4)=a(x-5)^{2}$

The y-intercept is the point (0,96)

substitute and solve for a

$(96+4)=a(0-5)^{2}$

$100=a(25)$

$a=100/25=4$

The equation of the vertical parabola is equal to

$(y+4)=4(x-5)^{2}$

Find the x-intercepts

Remember that

The x-intercepts are the values of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

$4=4(x-5)^{2}$

Simplify

$1=(x-5)^{2}$

Rewrite

$(x-5)^{2}=1$

square root both sides

$(x-5)=(+/-)1$

$x=(+/-)1+5$

$x=(+)1+5=6$

$x=(-)1+5=4$

therefore

The x-intercepts are

(x1,y1)=(4,0)

(x2,y2)=(6,0)

Complete the square to determine the minimum or maximum value of the function defined by the expression.

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Option D. minimum value at −38

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$x^{2}-12x-2$

Let

$y=x^{2}-12x-2$

Complete the square

$y+2=x^{2}-12x$

$y+2+36=(x^{2}-12x+36)$

$y+38=(x^{2}-12x+36)$

$y+38=(x-6)^{2}$

$y=(x-6)^{2}-38$ ------> equation of a vertical parabola in vertex form

The vertex is the point $(6,-38)$

The parabola open upward-----> the vertex is a minimum

therefore

minimum value at −38
