Find the vertex of the parabola. F(x) = 5x^2 - 30x +49

1 answer:

4 0

X=-b/2a is the formula for finding the axis of symmetry
So x= -30/2(5)
X=-30/10
X=-3

Because the axis of symmetry is -3, we know where to place our line, and we also know that the parabola is open downwards, which means that the vertex will be maximum. To find the vertex, plug in your values with the axis of symmetry as a midway point. Plug that in for x and so you should have the following:
F(x)
Y(f(x) and y variables are interchangeable) =5(-3)^2-30(-3)+49

Solve for y(f(x))
5(-3)^2-30(-3)+49
(-3)^2=3^2
3^2*5+30*3+49
Multiply
3^2*5+90+49
Add numbers
3^2*5+139
9*5=45
45+139=184
Y=184

So, your vertex would be
(-3,184) and it would be maximum. From there you can plug in the rest of your table of values.

Write an explicit formula for the sequence and find the 18th term.<br> -4, 12, -36...

Molodets [167]

Answer:

an = -4 * (-3)^ (n-1)

513560652

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the common ratio

12/-4 = -3

r =-3

The explicit formula is

an =a1 r^(n-1)

an = -4 * (-3)^ (n-1)

We want the 18 th term

a 18 = -4 (-3) ^ 17

Explain how to multiply the following whole numbers 21 x 14

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}$

________

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{0}&8&4\\ +&\textbf{2}&1&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&9&4\end{matrix}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$21\:\times \:14$

Line up the numbers

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&2&1\\ \times \:&1&4\end{matrix}$

Multiply the top number by the bottom number one digit at a time starting with the ones digit left(from right to left right)

Multiply the top number by the bolded digit of the bottom number

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 1×4=4

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&2&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&4\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 2×4=8

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&1\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&4\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the top number by the bolded digit of the bottom number

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&\textbf{1}&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&4\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 1×1=1

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&2&\textbf{1}\\ \space\space&\times \:&\textbf{1}&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&8&4\\ \space\space&\space\space&1&\space\space\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 2×1=2

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{2}&1\\ \space\space&\times \:&\textbf{1}&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&8&4\\ \space\space&2&1&\space\space\end{matrix}}$

Add the rows to get the answer. For simplicity, fill in trailing zeros.

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&2&1\\ \space\space&\times \:&1&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&8&4\\ \space\space&2&1&0\end{matrix}}$

adding portion

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&8&4\\ +&2&1&0\end{matrix}$

Add the digits of the right-most column: 4+0=4

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&8&\textbf{4}\\ +&2&1&\textbf{0}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}}$

Add the digits of the right-most column: 8+1=9

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&\textbf{8}&4\\ +&2&\textbf{1}&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{9}&4\end{matrix}}$

Add the digits of the right-most column: 0+2=2

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{0}&8&4\\ +&\textbf{2}&1&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&9&4\end{matrix}}$

Therefore,

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}$

________

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{0}&8&4\\ +&\textbf{2}&1&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&9&4\end{matrix}}$

Joshua delivered 30 hives to the local fruit farm. If the farmer has paid to use 5% of the total number of Joshua's hives, how m

IrinaVladis [17]

Joshua delivered 30 hives to the local fruit farm.

If the farmer has paid to use 5% of the total number of Joshua's hives.

So 30 hives is 5% of the total number of hives.

5% of hives = 30

1% of hives = 30 ÷ 5 = 6

100% of hives = 6 × 100 = 600

Thus, Joshua had 600 hives before selling.

Now, he has = 600 - 30 = 570 hives.

Now, Joshua has 570 hives.

Rita has the following data:

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The range is the difference between the largest number and the smallest number. This means you subtract the smallest number from the largest number. If the range is 8, then you can add 8 to the smallest number on the list to get the largest number, m.
Our smallest number is 12, so add 8 to 12.
8 + 12 = 20, so m is 20.
I hope this helps!
