What is the graph of the function? F(x) = 1/2x^2

Mathematics

Sergio [31]3 years ago

F(x) = 1/2x^2 is a variation of the basic graph y = x^2 (the squaring function).

The graph of the squaring function has the shape of a parabola that opens up.  Its vertex is at (0,0).

The graph of F(x) = (1/2)x^2 has the same shape, but is compressed vertically by a factor of (1/2).   The vertex of F(x) = (1/2)x^2 is still (0,0).  That eliminates the first 2 possible answers.  Note that F(1) = (1/2)(1)^2 = 1/2.  The point (1, 1/2) is on the third graph, but not on the fourth.  Thus, the third graph is correct.

Solve the system of equations - 6x + 5y = 0 and -5x + 5y = -5 by combining

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-5, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of y are the same, so we can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here, we choose to subtract the first from the second, so that the coefficient of x ends up positive.

  (-5x +5y) -(-6x +5y) = (-5) -(0)

  x = -5 . . . . . . simplify

  -6(-5) +5y = 0 . . . . . . substitute x into the first equation

  6 +y = 0 . . . . . . . . . .  divide by 5

  y = -6 . . . . . . subtract 6

The solution to the system of equations is (x, y) = (-5, -6).
