The function f(t) = 4t^2 − 8t + 6 shows the height from the ground f(t), in meters, of a roller coaster car at different times t

. Write f(t) in the vertex form a(x − h)^2 + k, where a, h, and k are integers, and interpret the vertex of f(t).
A - f(t) = 4(t − 1)^2 + 3; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 3 meters from the ground
B - f(t) = 4(t − 1)^2 + 3; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 1 meter from the ground
C - f(t) = 4(t − 1)^2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 2 meters from the ground
D - f(t) = 4(t − 1)^2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 1 meter from the ground

Answer:

C - f(t) = 4(t − 1)^2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 2 meters from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we're asked to rewrite the given equation f(t) = 4t^2 − 8t + 6 in the form f(t) = a(t - h)^2 + k (which is known as the "vertex form of the equation of a parabola.")  Here (h, k) is the vertex and a is a scale factor.

Let's begin by factoring 4 out of all three terms:

f(t) = 4 [ t^2 - 2t + 6/4 ]

Next, we must "complete the square" of t^2 - 2t + 6/4; in other words, we must re-write this expression in the form (t - h)^2 + k.

(To be continued)

Find the value of x:
slega [8]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Using ΔAHC , then

∠ACH = 180 - (2x + 100) = 180 - 2x - 100 = 80 - 2x

∠ECD = ∠ACB ( vertical angles are congruent ), thus

∠ECD = ∠ACH + ∠HCB, that is

3x = 80 - 2x + x

3x = 80 - x ( add x to both sides )

4x = 80 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 20

A circle inside of a square. The circle touches all sides of the square. The base is 5 centimeters.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

19.6 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

If a circle fits perfectly inside of a square, then its diameter is equal to the length of sides of the square.

The area of a circle is given by:

A= \pi \frac{d^2}{4}

In this problem, d = 5 cm, the area of the circle is:

A= 3.14 *\frac{5^2}{4} \\A=19.6\ cm^2

The approximate area of the circle is 19.6 cm².
