What is the justification for step 2 in the solution process?

Mathematics
1 answer:
igomit [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y

12y - 40 - 4y = 6y - 18

8y -40 = 6y - 18

8y - 6y - 40 = -18

2y - 40 = -18 ( the justification for step 2 is to isolate y on one side of the                   equation in order to solve for y )

2y - 40 + 40 = 40 - 18

2y = 22

2y/2 = 22/2

y = 11

Check :

12(11) - 40 - 4(11) = 6 (11) - 18

132 - 40 - 44 = 66 - 18

48= 48

What is the notation for an inverse function?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Notation. The inverse of the function f is denoted by f -1 (if your browser doesn't support superscripts, that is looks like f with an exponent of -1) and is pronounced "f inverse". Although the inverse of a function looks like you're raising the function to the -1 power, it isn't.

The boundary of the lawn in front of a building is represented by the parabola . The parabola is represented on the coordinate p
Colt1911 [192]
The boundary of the lawn in front of a building is represented by the parabola

y = (x^2) /16 + x - 2

And you have three questions which require to find the focus, the vertex and the directrix of the parabola.

Note that it is a regular parabola (its symmetry axis is paralell to the y-axis).

1) Focus:

It is a point on the symmetry axis => x = the x-component of the vertex) at a distance equal to the distance between the directrix and the vertex).

In a regular parabola, the y - coordinate of the focus is p units from the y-coordinate of the focus, and p is equal to 1/(4a), where a is the coefficient that appears in this form of the parabola's equation: y = a(x - h)^2 + k (this is called the vertex form)

Then we will rearrange the standard form, (x^2)/16 + x - 2 fo find the vertex form y = a(x-h)^2 + k

What we need is to complete a square. You can follow these steps.

1) Extract common factor 1/16 => (1/16) [ (x^2) + 16x - 32]

2) Add (and subtract) the square of the half value of the coefficent ot the term on x =>

16/2 = 8 => add and subtract 8^2 => (1/16) [ (x^2) + 16 x + 8^2 - 32 - 8^2]

3) The three first terms inside the square brackets are a perfect square trinomial: =>

(1/16) [ (x+8)^2 - 32 - 64] = (1/16) [ (x+8)^2  - 96] =>

(1/16) [(x+8)^2 ] - 96/16 =>

(1/16) (x +8)^2 -  6

Which is now in the form a(x - h)^2 + k,
where:

a = 1/16 , h = - 8, and k = -6

(h,k) is the vertex: h is the x-coordinate of the vertex, and k is the y-coordinate of the vertex.

=> a = 1/16 => p =1/4a = 16/4 = 4
 
y-componente of the focus = -6 + 4 = -2

x-component of the focus = h = - 8

=> focus = (-8, -2)

2) Vertex

We found it above, vertex = (h,k) = (-8,-6)


3) Directrix

It is the line y = p units below the vertex = > y = -6 - 4 = -10

y = -10
