Answer:
The function f(x) is not given, I used a different function but the approach and steps is the same .
Step-by-step explanation:
- Given the function f(x) = 2x2 - 8x + 5
compare with the normal quadratic equation ; ax2 + bx + c = f(x)
- since a is greater than zero i.e a > o {positive}
As such, it has a minimum
hence for minimum value; x = -b/2a
x = -(-8)/2 x 2
x = 8/4 = 2
plugging the values of x in f(x) ; f(2) = 2(2)^2 -8(2) + 5
f(2) = -3, hence it has minimum value and the minimum value is -3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
r=4/(-2)=-2
To have infinitely many solutions they must describe the same line. So any multiple or fraction of the reference line would indeed describe the same line, and thus "intersect" at each and every of an infinite number of points.
2(x+y=4)
2x+2y=8 (is the same line as x+y=4)
