In which direction will this parabola open y=-37(x-82)^2-16

Mathematics

Since the 37 is negative the parabola will open downward.
The coefficient on the outside of the ^2 tells you if it opens up or down. If it's positive it opens upward and if it's negative it opens downward.
For the parabola to open sideways it would be a form of x = y^2

Tom [10]
Answer: the function g(x) has the smallest minimum y-value.


Explanation:


1) The function f(x) = 3x² + 12x + 16 is a parabola.


The vertex of the parabola is the minimum or maximum on the parabola.


If the parabola open down then the vertex is a maximum, and if the parabola open upward the vertex is a minimum.


The sign of the coefficient of the quadratic term tells whether the parabola opens upward or downward.


When such coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upward (so it has a minimum); when the coefficient is negative the parabola opens downward (so it has a maximum).


Here the coefficient is positive (3), which tells that the vertex of the parabola is a miimum.


Then, finding the minimum value of the function is done by finding the vertex.

I will change the form of the function to the vertex form by completing squares:

Given: 3x² + 12x + 16

Group: (3x² + 12x) + 16
Common factor: 3 [x² + 4x ] + 16
Complete squares: 3[ ( x² + 4x + 4) - 4] + 16
Factor the trinomial: 3 [(x + 2)² - 4] + 16
Distributive property: 3 (x + 2)² - 12 + 16
Combine like terms: 3 (x + 2)² + 4

That is the vertex form: A(x - h)² + k, whch means that the vertex is (h,k) = (-2, 4).


Then the minimum value is 4 (when x = - 2).


2) The othe function is <span>g(x)= 2 *sin(x-pi)
</span>

The sine function goes from -1 to + 1, so the minimum value of sin(x - pi) is - 1.


When you multiply by 2, you just increased the amplitude of the function and obtain the new minimum value is 2 (-1) = - 2


Comparing the two minima, you have 4 vs - 2, and so the function g(x) has the smallest minimum y-value.

The cost of a lack has increased by 30% to £65. Work out the original price
Sveta_85 [38]
Cost of lack increased by 30%

new cost of lack will be = 100% + 30% = 130%

We are given that new cost = £65

Thus 130% of original cost = 65

100% of original cost = 65 × 100/130 = £50

Thus original price was £50

There are 45 exotic fish in a fish tank. 9 of those fish are clown fish. What percent of the fish in the tank are clown fish.
Marrrta [24]
Percentage can be calculated by dividing the value by the total value, and then multiplying the result by 100.

(value/total value)×100%.

So,
9/45=0.2 x 100= 20%

Answer= 20%

Al saves pennies. He agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

2744 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pennies Al have initially.

We have been given that Al agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev, so number of pennies Bev will get would be \frac{3}{7}x.

We are also told that Bev gave 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl, so number of pennies that Carl will get would be \frac{3}{7}x\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{9}{49}x.

Further, Carl gave 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani, so number of pennies that Dani will get would be \frac{9}{49}x\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{27}{343}x.

We are also told that Dani received 216 pennies. Now, we will equate 216 to \frac{27}{343}x and solve for x as shown below:

\frac{27x}{343}=216

\frac{27x}{343}*343=216*343

27x=74088

\frac{27x}{27}=\frac{74088}{27}

x=2744

Therefore, Al have 2744 pennies initially.
