Well, to solve, garph the equation y=x^2+2x-8 and y=0
see where they intersect
anyway the easier way is to factor but anyway
0=(x-4)(x+2)
anyway
solution is x=4 and -2
A and D are answers (they are same)
Answer:
Were is the graph
Step-by-step explanation:
show me the graph
Answer:
2x - y = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard form: x + y = n
y - 4 = 2x + 6
y = 2x + 6 + 4
y = 2x + 10
2x - y = -10
The answer here is A which is the first graph.
Remember that if a is negative in the equation y = ax^2 + bx + c, the parabola always opens downward. For vertex, its coordinates is always located on the first quadrant in which all values are positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we want to find profit given revenue and cost. Because profit = revenue - cost, we can write the profit function, P(x), as R(x) - C(x) and go from there.
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = (-x²+24x) - ( 10x + 30)
P(x) = -x²+24x - 10x-30
P(x) = -x²+14x-30
In a quadratic function such as this, the graph opens downward (meaning that it goes from up to down) if the leading coefficient is negative and vice versa. Here, since -1 is attached to x², we can say that the graph opens downward. The point where the direction of the slope changes (when it goes from up to down), or the peak of the quadratic, is called the vertex.
The x value of the vertex is given by -b/(2a) in a quadratic of form ax²+bx+c. As a=-1 and b=14 here, we can say that -b/(2a) =
-14/(2*-1) = -14/-2
= 7
Therefore, the x value of the vertex, or the number of containers sold that maximizes profit, is 7.
