Answer:
60 °F
Step-by-step explanation:
The function can be put into vertex form:
T(x) = 0.264(x² -18x) +81 . . . . factor the leading coefficient from 1st 2 terms
Now, we add the square of half the x-coefficient inside parentheses and subtract the same quantity outside parentheses.
T(x) = 0.264(x² -18x +81) +81 -0.264·81
T(x) = 0.264(x -9)² +59.616
The low temperature for the day was approximately 59.6 °F, which rounds to 60 °F.
Answer:
a) 18
b)x^2+10x+18
c)x^2 -6x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a case of plugging in the value into f(x).
a) f(-8)= -8^2 + 6(-8) +2
f(-8)= 64 + (-48) +2
f(-8)=64 + (-46)
f(-8)=18
b) f(x+2)= (x+2)^2+6(x+2)+2
So here I'll take a break to explain what's going on, because x+2 is a binomial meaning two terms and it is being squared I have to multiply the whole thing by itself. Meaning: (x+2) x (x+2), this is also known as foiling!! and for the next part its distributing 6 into x and 2.
f(x+2)= x^2+4x+4+6x+12+2
I'll reorder it
f(x+2)= x^2+4x+6x+12+2+4
f(x+2)= x^2+10x+18
c) f(-x)= -x^2+6(-x) +2
f(-x)= x^2 -6x+2
Chin is correct because 5 x $.65 is $3.25., and he multiplied by US/GB
Nadene is incorrect because she took GB/US x 5
