Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given quadratic function:</u>
<u>Points on the graph:</u>
- (-2,-35), (1,-5), (3,- 15)
<u>Substitute values of x and y and solve the system of equations:</u>
- -35 = a(-2)² + b(-2) + c ⇒ -35 = 4a - 2b + c ⇔ eq 1
- -5 = a(1)² + b(1) + c ⇒ -5 = a + b + c ⇔ eq 2
- -15 = a(3)² + b(3) + c ⇒ -15 = 9a + 3b + c ⇔ eq 3
<u>Subtract eq 2 from eq 1:</u>
- -35 - (-5) = 4a - 2b + c - a - b - c
- -30 = 3a - 3b
- b = a + 10 ⇔ eq 4
<u>Subtract eq 2 from eq 3:</u>
- -15 - (-5) = 9a + 3b + c - a - b - c
- -10 = 8a + 2b
- b = -4a - 5 ⇔ eq 5
<u>Compare eq 4 and eq 5, solve for a:</u>
- a + 10 = -4a - 5
- a + 4a = -5 - 10
- 5a = -15
- a = -3
<u>Find the value of b using eq 4:</u>
<u>Find the value of c using eq 2:</u>
- -5 = -3 + 7 + c
- c = -5 - 4
- c = -9
<u>We now have a, b and c:, the function is:</u>
The area of a triangle can be calculated as half the product of base length and height. We want the area to be no greater than 10 in².
a) (1/2)(4)(2x-3) ≤ 10
b) 4x -6 ≤ 10 . . . . . simplify
... 4x ≤ 16 . . . . . . . .add 6
... x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
c) The maximum value of (2x -3) in is (2·4 -3) in = 5 in.
The triangle should be no more than 5 in high to have an area less than 10 in².
Yes, there will be more than 100 inches because there are 12 inches in a foot so it’s 100x12 which means it’s going to be 1,200 inches per second
Answer:
Exactly two distinct zeros
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2(x-1) (x + 4)
Plug y = 0
0 = 2(x-1) (x + 4)
0/2 = (x-1) (x + 4)
(x-1) (x + 4) = 0
(x-1) = 0 or (x + 4)= 0
x = 1 or x = - 4
Here, x has two distinct roots, therefore given quadratic relation has Exactly two distinct zeros.
