Answer:
f(x) = 4x^2 + 2x - 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the quadratic function be y = f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c.
For the point (-2, 8) ( x = -2 when y = 8) we have:
a(-2)^2 + (-2)b + c = 8
4a - 2b + c = 8 For (0, -4) we have:
0 + 0 + c = -4 so c = -4. For (4, 68) we have:
16a + 4b + c = 68
So we have 2 systems of equations in a and b ( plugging in c = -4):
4a - 2b - 4 = 8
16a + 4b - 4 = 68
4a - 2b = 12
16a + 4b = 72 Multiplying 4a - 2b = 12 by 2 we get:
8a - 4b = 24
Adding the last 2 equations:
24a = 96
a = 4
Now plugging a = 4 and c = -4 in the first equation:
4(4) - 2b - 4 = 8
-2b = 8 - 16 + 4 = -4
b = 2.
Answer:
2.) 7.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
5^2 + 6^2 = c^2
25+36 = c^2
61 = c^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(61) = sqrt(c^2)
7.810249676 = c
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The window consists of a large square and 4 smaller triangles on the outside. The side length of this square is marked as 10, and therefore the area of this square is
.
The area of a triangle is given by
. Since the problem states that the overlapping squares are congruent, both legs of the triangle will be
and intersect at a
angle.
Thus, the sum of all four triangles is
.
Therefore, the area of the window is:

Answer:
g(x) = x² - 4 is already in form of a variable, I.e., x
g(4x) takes another variable, I.e., 4x
Same as before, 4x takes over x:
=> g(4x) = (4x)² - 4
- <em>(</em><em>ax</em><em>)</em><em>²</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em>²</em><em>x</em><em>²</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>where</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>some</em><em> </em><em>arbitrary</em><em> </em><em>constant</em><em>.</em><em> </em>
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u> </h3>
=> g(4x) = 16x² - 4
OR
=> g(4x) = 4{4x² - 1}
