Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 3 unknowns: a, b, and c. It's our job to find them algebraically. I'm going to start with the point where x = 0 and y = 7. You'll see why in a minute. Filling in the standard form of a quadratic
using (0, 7):
gives you that c = 7. We will use that value now when we write the next 2 equations. Now the point (-2, 19):
and
so
12 = 4a - 2b
Now for the next point (-1, 12):
and
so
5 = a - b
Now we have a system of equations (the 2 bold font equations) that we will solve by elimination:
12 = 4a - 2b
5 = a - b
Multiply the bottom equation by -4 to get a new system:
12 = 4a - 2b
-20 = -4a + 4b
Add those together to get rid of the a terms and end up with
-8 = 2b so
b = -4
Now we can sub in -4 for b to solve for a. I'm using the second bold type equation to do this:
5 = a - (-4) and
5 = a + 4 so
a = 1 and the equation for the quadratic function is

Answer:
12m²
Step-by-step explanation:
For a rectangle, with length L and width W,
the perimeter is given as
Perimeter,
P = (2 x Length) + (2 x Width)
P = 2L + 2W
It is given that the perimeter is 48, hence
48 = 2L + 2W (divide both sides by 2)
24 = L + W
or
L = 24 - W -----> eq 1
Also realize that the Area of a Rectangle is given by
A = L x W -----> eq 2
Substituting eq 1 into eq 2,
A = (24 - W) x W
A = -W² + 24W
Recall that for a quadratic equation y = ax² + bx + c, the maxima or minima is given by y(max) = -b/2a
In this case, b = 24 and a = -1
-b/2a = -24/[ 2(-1) ] = 12
Hence for A to be maximum A(max) = 12m² (Answer)
The complex conjugate of a + bi is a - bi
So, the complex conjugate of -8 + 12i is -8 - 12i.
