Answer:
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
This function has two roots: -3 and 5. Most likely it is a quadratic (all of which have two roots).
Then f(x) = a(x + 3)(x - 5)
The graph goes through (1. 8): Therefore, y = 8 when x = 1:
f(1) = a(1 + 3)(1 - 5) = 8, or
a(4)(-4) = 8, or
-16a = 8, which leads to a = -1/2.
Thus the quadratic in question is f(x) = (-1/2)(x + 3)(x - 5), or
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
Answer:
I'm not sure, but it might be 120.
Answer & Explanation:
A stem and leaf plot is used to organize data as they are collected. A stem and leaf plot looks something like a bar graph. Each number in the data is broken down into a stem and a leaf, thus the name. The stem of the number includes all but the last digit.
The roots, zeros, or solutions (they all means same thing) of an equation are when you graph that equation, x-intercepts are the real roots, zeros, or solutions.
Or set the y equal to zero which does the same job.
Multiplying the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same nonzero whole number will change that fraction into an equivalent fraction, but it will not change its value.
