Answer:

Answer C:  g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a graphing calculator to graph f(x) = -x^2 + 4x - 5, and by doing so I immedately saw that the vertex of f(x) is at (2, -1).

The absolute max of g(x) is approximately (3.25, 6.1).

The absolute max of f(x) is approximately (2, -1).

Since the y-coordinate of the absolute maximum of g(x) is greater than the y-coordinate of the absolute maximum of f(x), we conclude that Answer C is correct:  g(x) has the greater absolute maximum

To qualify as a polynomial, the expression in question:
* Consists of one or more terms 
* Variables are only with positive whole exponents
* No variables in the denominator of any term (the coefficients however, can be fractions.)

In that case the answer is most likely:

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Top line: y = (2/3)x + 2

Bottom line:  y = (2/3)x  -1

Discussion:

The graph provided is hard to read but I did the best I could.

The top line appears to pass through the points (0,2) and (-3,0)

For this line

m =  change y /change x = (0-2)/(-3-0) = -2/-3 = +2/3. So

y = mx + b => y = (2/3) x+ b.  As the line passes through (0,2) set x = 0, y= 2 in y = (2/3)x + b =>  

2 = (2/3) 0 + b   => b = 2

Therefore    y = (2/3)x + 2

The bottom line appears to pass through the points (0,-1) and (3,1)

For this line

m =  change y /change x = (1-(-1)) /(3-0) = +2/-3. So

y = mx + b => y = (2/3) x+ b.  As the line passes through (0,-1) set x = 0, y= -1  in y = (2/3)x + b =>  

-1  = (2/3) 0 + b   => b = -1

Therefore    y = (2/3)x + -1

Thank you,

MrB

For which independent value do the equations generate the same dependent value?
nalin [4]

Answer:

x =  - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations given are:

y_1=6x+10

y_2=4x+4

For the equations to generate the same independent value, then

y_1=y_2

This implies that:

6x+10 = 4x + 4

Group similar terms to get:

6x - 4x = 4 - 10

Simplify to get:

2x =   - 6

x =  - 3

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation-

Jack has 6 less than 5 times what mark has, if we write it out, we have (5*mark)-6. We know that mark has 10, so if we replace it we have

(5*10)-6 we get 50-6 which equals 44
