The functions f(x) = (x + 1)2 − 2 and g(x) = −(x − 2)2 + 1 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. Is the ve

rtex for each function a minimum or a maximum? Explain your reasoning for each function.

Answer:

  • f(x) vertex is a minimum
  • g(x) vertex is a maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasoning is the same in each case: the sign of the coefficient of the squared term indicates the direction the parabola opens. If it opens upward, the vertex is a minimum; if it opens downward, the vertex is a maximum.

f(x) -- the sign of the squared term is positive, so the vertex is a <em>minimum</em>.

g(x) -- the sign of the squared term is negative, so the vertex is a <em>maximum</em>.

Solve this inequality: 3p – 6 &gt; 21.
babymother [125]
<span>3p - 6 > 21 <=> 3p > 21+6 <=> 3p > 27 <=> p > 27/3 <=> p > 9. So the answer is B. When solving inequalities the idea is to move the terms which contain the unknown quantity to one side and the rest of the terms to the other side. And then perform valid mathematical operations to find the interval value for the unknown quantity.</span>

Can a remainder in a division problem equal the divisor
Rufina [12.5K]
Well the answer is No.A remainder will always be smaller than the divisor ,because the divisor is the one that used to divide the dividend and the remaining number that cannot be divided by the divisor is called the remainder.

I’m trying to get this math test done, can I please have some help?
Sati [7]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use slope-intercept form, you can see that B uses the equation y = 5x - 4, and you can also see that it is linear since it is proportional. The only coordinate plane that has a nonlinear line is D.

A woman standing on a hill sees a flagpole that she knows is 65 ft tall. The angle of depression to the bottom of the pole is 14
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Let the distance between woman and pole be "x".

From diagram,

In ΔOAB,

tan 18 = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

tan 18 =  \frac{65 -y}{x}

∴ x =  \frac{65 -y}{tan 18} ................ (1)

In ΔOBC

tan 14 = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

tan 14 =  \frac{y}{x}

y = x × tan 14 ..............(2)

equating (2) in (1), we get;

x = \frac{65}{tan 18 + tan 14}

x = \frac{65}{0.574}

∵ tan 18 + tan 14 = 0.574

<em>∴ x = 113.2 ft</em>

<em>i.e. The her distance from the pole is 113.2 ft.</em>

Correct answers only pls. Unless you will be reported. Also please include explanation.
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The answer is B) -3 and 1/3

Explanation:

The answer must be between -3 and -4 because that is the location on the plot.

You count two ticks on the plot. The first one is 1/3. The second one is 2/3.

There is no third one because 3/3 would bring you to the next number.

The dot is on the first tick, meaning that it is 1/3. If the dot is between -3 and -4, you can conclude that the answer is -3 and 1/3.

I hope this was helpful to you! If it was, please consider rating, pressing thanks, and marking my answer Brainliest. It would help a lot. Have a great day!
