Inimum value of y=4x^2+4x-35?
1 answer:
Hello there!
There are two ways to find the minimum value of this function, but before I show you how, I am going to teach you a little bit about minimum value.
The minimum value on a parabola is the vertex or turning point. This means that the slope of the tangent line is horizontal, having a slope of 0.
The algebraic way to find the minimum or maximum value on a parabola is to use the formula -b/2a. Let's do it...
y=4x^2+4x-35
where a=4, b=4, and c=-35
-b/2a
-4/2(4)
-4/8
-1/2
Now let me show you the other way...
Take the derivative of
y=4x^2+4x-35
y'=8x+4
And set it equal to 0...
8x+4=0
8x=-4
x=-1/2
We got the same answer. Now that we know x=-1/2, plug this into the original equation to find y.
y=4x^2+4x-35
y=4(-1/2)^2+4(-1/2)-35
y=-1-2-35
y=-38
So the minimum point on this parabola is (-1/2,-38)

Answer:
Equation: 5x = 90
x = 18
<LNM = 54degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram shown;
<JNK + <KNL + <LNM = 90
x + x + 3x = 90
5x = 90
x = 90/5
x = 18
The equation 5x = 90 can be used to solve for x
Get <LNM = 3x
<LNM = 3(18)
<LNM = 54 degrees
y= 3/2x +3
hope this helps :)
