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

Tomtit [17]2 years ago

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)

Let f be defined as shown. What is f^-1(-3)
Irina18 [472]

Hello,

f^{-1}(-3)=-1\\

You have just to read the arrows un reversed order:

in f we find (-1,-3)  so in f^{-1} we find (-1,-3)^{-1}=(-3,-1)

A wedge of cheese is shaped like a triangular prism. The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall. The base of the cheese is shaped like
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

193 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a triangular prism:

The volume of a triangular prism is the base area multiplied by the wedge, that is:

V = A_bw

The base area is one half times the triangle base times it's height, so:

V = 0.5*b*h*w

The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall.

This means that w = 7

The base of the cheese is shaped like a triangle with a base of 11 and a height of 5 inches.

This means that b = 11, h = 5

Volume:

V = 0.5*b*h*w = 0.5*11*5*7 = 192.5

Rounding, approximately 193 in.
