The value of y varies directly with x2, and y = 150 when x = 5. What is the value of y when x=3?

1 answer:

3 0

The value of y when x=3 when the value of y varies directly with x^2, and y = 150 when x = 5 is 54. Since the value of y varies directly with x2, then: y = k * x^2, where k is constant. When y = 150 and x = 5, the value of constant is: 150 = k * 5^2. 150 = k * 25. k = 150/25. k = 6. Thus, when x = 3, the value of y will be: y = 6 * 3^2. y = 6 * 9. y = 54.

Please help if u can

Answer:

f(x) -> 2 as x -> -∞ and f(x) -> ∞ as x -> ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) -> 2 as x -> -∞ and f(x) -> ∞ as x -> ∞

*this is because the graph shows that the y value cannot pass by 2 as the x value constantly decreases and as x is increasing, there is just an arrow showing that the graph is constantly going up and therefore going to ∞

Calculate the axis of symmetry in the equation Y = (x+1) (x-4)

algol [13]

Answer:

Every parabola has a turning point called the axis of symmetry,so for this question you just have to find the turning points

x turning point= -b/2a,and the y turning point is gotten by replacing the value of x in the equation

y=(x+1)(x-4)

=x^2-3x-4

a is 1,b is -3 and c is -4

x= -(-3)/2(1)

=1.5

and y=x^2-3x-4

=1.5^2-3(1.5)-4

= -6.25

therefore the axis of symmetry is (1.5,-6.25)

I hope this helps
