Answer:

y = (1/2)x² -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that the general equation of a quadratic function is:

y = Ax² + Bx + C

given that 0 and 4 are roots, that means when x = 0 and x = 4, then  y = 0

From this we can get 2 points on the curve, namely,  (0,0) and (4,0)

substituting these points one at a time into the equation above,

for the first point (0,0),

0 = A (0)² + b(0) + C

C = 0

hence the equation becomes:    y = Ax² + Bx

for the 2nd known point (4,0)

0 = A(4)² + B(4)

0 = 16A + 4B   (divide both sides by 4)

0 = 4A + B

B = -4A    ------------(eq 1)

we are given a 3rd point, vertex at (2,-2)

for (2,-2)

-2 = A(2²) + B(2)

-2 = 4A + 2B   (divide both sides by 2)

-1 = 2A + B   (subtract 2A from both sides)

B = -1 -2A --------(eq 2)

solving the system of equations using the method of your choice in eq1 and eq 2 gives:

A = 1/2 and B = -2

hence the equation is

y = (1/2)x² -2x

The regular price of a video game is $69.75. This week it is on sale for 15% off. What does the game cost this week?
lozanna [386]
Since it is 15% off you are paying 85%.
Multiply $69.75* .85
Cost = $59.29

Find the missing variables pythagorean theorem
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

y = 12     x = 12√2     z  = 12√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The 45° triangle will also have a height of y so....

    y² + y² = x²          2y²  = x²     y² = x²/2       y = √(x²/2)

The 30°  triangle

    y² + z² = 24²                          y² = 24² - z²          y = √(24² - z²)

                               

sin 30 = y/24          1/2 = y/24      y = 12    

          y² = x²/2

         12² = x²/2²

    2(144)  = x²         x = √(288)       x = 12√2  

      y² + z² = 24²

           z² = 24² - y²

           z² = 24² - 12²

           z² = 576 - 144

            z² = 432      

                =  √(16·9·3)

            z  =  4·3√3

            z  = 12√3

     y² + z² = 24²

    12² + (12√3)² = 24²

    144 + 144·3    =   576

     2y²  = x²

     2(12)²  = x²

      288  =  (12√2)  = 144·2  = 288
