Below are suppose the be the questions:
a. factor the equation
<span>b. graph the parabola </span>
<span>c. identify the vertex minimum or maximum of the parabola </span>
<span>d. solve the equation using the quadratic formula
</span>
below are the answers:
Vertex form is most helpful for all of these tasks.
<span>Let </span>
<span>.. f(x) = a(x -h) +k ... the function written in vertex form. </span>
<span>a) Factor: </span>
<span>.. (x -h +√(-k/a)) * (x -h -√(-k/a)) </span>
<span>b) Graph: </span>
<span>.. It is a graph of y=x^2 with the vertex translated to (h, k) and vertically stretched by a factor of "a". </span>
<span>c) Vertex and Extreme: </span>
<span>.. The vertex is (h, k). It is a maximum if "a" is negative; a minimum otherwise. </span>
<span>d) Solutions: </span>
<span>.. The quadratic formula is based on the notion of completing the square. In vertex form, the square is already completed, so the roots are </span>
<span>.. x = h ± √(-k/a)</span>
Y = -3x + c
Using (1,-5):
-5 = -3(1) + c
c = -5 + 3(1) = -2
Therefore:
y = -3x - 2
109.31
To find this you can convert 58% to decimal form, which is .58. Once you have a decimal form of a percent, you can multiply it by the number you are taking the percent of and get an answer. So .58 times something equals 63.4. You can write this as an equation:
.58x = 63.4
and solve for x, which would get 63.4/.58, which equals 109.31.
Factor: 12g = 8g - 12 + 11
Combine like terms: 12g = 8g - 1
Get the variable on one side: 4g = -1
Isolate the variable: g = -1/4
