In two or more complete sentences, compare the number of x-intercepts in the graph of f(t) = t2 to the number of x-intercepts in

the graph of g(t) = (t – 8)2. Be sure to include the transformations that occurred between the parent function f(t) and its image g(t).

Answer

<em>Both graphs have the same number of x-intercepts. The graph of the function f(t) = t² </em>has one <em>x-intercept</em>, which is the value of t for which f(t) = t² = 0, and that is t = 0. The graph of the function <em>g(t) = (t - 8)² </em>has also <em>one x-intercept</em>, which is the value of t for which g(t) = 0 and that is t = 8.

The function f(t) = t² is the most simple form of a parabola, so it is considered the parent function. The function g(t) = (t - 8)² is a daughter function of f(t); then, the graph of g(t) is a horizontal translation of the graph of f(t),  8 units to the right, so the number of x-intercepts (the points where the x-axis is crossed or touched by the graph) does not change, it is just their position what changes.

Explanation:

The x-intercepts are the points where the graph of the function touches or crosses the x-axis. They are found by doing the function equal to zero. In this case f(t) = 0 and g(t) = 0.

You can solve easily f(t) = t², as, just by simple inspection, the soluton is t = 0.

Then, when you realize that the function g(t) = (t - 8)² is a horizontal translation (8 units to the right) of the parent function f(t), you can conclude quickly that the number of x-intercepts of both graphs is the same. Thus, uisng the transformation of the parent function, 8 units to the right, you conclude that both the graph of f(t) and the graph of g(t) have the same number of x-intercepts: one.

f rests at (0/0) and grows upwards, so there is only a single x-intercept. g is f moved 3 to the left, so it also only has one intercept but at (-3,0).

A hole occurs when both numerator and denominator of  a rational function have the same factor.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

While graphing rational function, it has to be converted into the lowest terms by factoring the numerator and denominator. If the numerator and denominator has the same factor, a hole is said to have occurred and to solve the rational function, you have to set the common factor to zero.

After you set it to zero and solve, you obtain the x value which can be then used to find out the value of y.

-<br> 24x4 – 18x3 + 4x2 - 3x = 0<br> -<br> Solve
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

x = 16.6666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

24x4 - 18x3 + 4x2 - 3x =0

24x4 = 96

18 x 3 = 54

4x2 = 8

96-54+8= 50

50/3 = 16.6666666667

Which point lies on the line with the point slope equation y-2=5 x-6
egoroff_w [7]
(y-y1) = m(x-x1)
y-2 = 5(x-6)

Therefore, point (x1,y1) lies on the line of equation
Therefore, point (6,2) lies on the line with the point slope equation y-2=5(x-6)
