So I think the rule is that you divide two exponents with the same base, you keep the base and subtract the powers.

For which pair of functions is the vertex of k(x)7 units below the vertex of f(x)?

kvv77 [185]

Answer: Option C

$f(x) = x^2;\ k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we have a main function f(x) and we want to transform the graph of f(x) by moving it vertically then we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) + b$

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units down.

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units upwards.

In this case we have

$f (x) = x ^ 2$

We know that this function has its vertex in point (0,0).

Then, to move its vertex 7 units down we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) - 7\\\\k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$ .

Then the function k(x) that will have its vertex 7 units below f(x) is

$k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

The average income, I, in dollars, of a lawyer with an age of x years is modeled with the following function:

Alinara [238K]

The answer is 37 years old.

I = -425x² + 45500x -650000
I = 450000

-425x² + 45500x -650000 = 450000
-425x² + 45500x - 650000 - 450000 = 0
-425x² + 45500x - 1100000 = 0

Divide all factors by 25:
- 17x² + 1820x - 44000 = 0

This is quadratic equation (ax² + bx + c = 0)
$x_{1,2} = \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{ 1820^{2}-4*(-17)*(-44000) } }{2*(-17)} = \\ \\ = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{3312400-2992000 } }{-34} = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{320400} }{-34} =\frac{-1820+/- 566}{-34} \\ \\ 
x_1= \frac{-1820+ 566}{-34}= -37 \\ \\ 
x_2 = \frac{-1820- 566}{-34}=70$

Since, the youngest age is needed, the correct answer is x = 37
