find the equation of a cubic function whose graph passes through points (3,0) and (1,4) and is tangent to x-axis at the origin

Answer:

y = -2x^2(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Preliminary Remark</u></em>

If a cubic is tangent to the x axis at 0,0

Then the equation must be related to y = a*x^2(x - h)

<em><u>(3,0)</u></em>

If the cubic goes through the point (3,0), then the equation will become

0 = a*3^2(3 - h)

0 = 9a (3 - h)

0 = 27a - 9ah

from which h = 3

<em><u>From the second point, we get</u></em>

4 = ax^2(x - 3)

4 = a(1)^2(1 - 3)

4 = a(-2)

a = 4 / - 2

a = -2

<em><u>Answer</u></em>

y = -2x^2(x - 3)

You have the set of all the integers from (-16) to 26, inclusive. You take two of the
Vesnalui [34]

The greatest difference you can get is 42

The range of the integer is given as:

Smallest = -16

Largest = 26

So, the range is calculated as:

Range = Largest - Smallest

Substitute known values

Range = 26 - (-16)

Evaluate the difference

Range = 42

Hence, the greatest difference you can get is 42

B. Determine the values of a and b so that f is continuous.<br><br> Please help!
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

following are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

\lim_{x\to 2}+f(x) = \lim_{x\to 2}+ (ax^2-bx+3) = 4a-2b+3\\\\ \to  4a-2b+3 = 4\\\\  \therefore \ \ 4a-2b = 1\\\\

The one-sided limits of F(x) at x = 3 must be equivalent for f(x) to be continuous at x = 3.

\to \lim_{x\to 3}- f(x) = \lim_{x\to 3}- (ax^2-bx+3) = 9a-3b+3\\\\ \to \lim_{x\to 3}+ f(x) = \lim_{x\to 3}+ (2x-a+b) = 6-a+b\\\\  

So,

\to 9a-3b+3 = 6-a+b\\\\\therefore\\ \to 10a -4b = 3

\to 4a - 2b = 1......(a)\\\to 10a - 4b = 3.......(b)\\

In equation a multiply the by -2 and then add in the equation b:

\to -8a + 4b = -2\\\to 10a - 4b = 3\\ \to 2a = 1\\\\ \to   a = \frac{1}{2}\\\\ \to \ 4(\frac{1}{2}) - 2b = 1\\\\ \to 2 - 2b = 1\\\\ \to   -2b = -1\\\\ \to b = \frac{1}{2}  

So, the value of a \ and \ b= \frac{1}{2}

The length of a rectangular floor is 2 feet more than the width. The area of the floor is 168 square feet. Kim wants to use a ru
defon
The area of the rectangular is expressed in the formula A = l*w where l is the length and w is the width. from the first satement, l = 2  + w; then A = (2+w)*w = 2w + w^2. If A is equal to 168, then w should be equal to 12 feet and l is equal to 14 feet. Hence the width due to the border limits is 12- 2*2 equal to 8 feet
