The function in vertex form is f(x) = (x-4)2-11
the y-intercept of the function is (0,5)
the function crosses the x-axis twice
So, Sam filled 6 glasses with 2/3 liters. We want to find out how many liters of juice he used.
To find this out we do 6 * 2/3.
(2/3+2/3+2/3+2/3+2/3+2/3)
(12/3) (Denominator stays the same)
12/3 = 4
Sam uses 4 liters.
Hope this helps you! (:

Answer:
third answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The end behavior of the function indicates that the leading coefficient of x is negative (as x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity for cubic functions with negative leading coefficients). This eliminates the first 2 answers. Next, factor out the common factor from the 3rd answer and set it to 0 to see if the roots of the polynomial shown on the graph (x=-3, x=2) match that of the answer.
- factor out -2x since each term in the 3rd answer is divisible by -2x => -2x(x^2+x-6)
- set the factored polynomial equal to 0 => -2x(x^2+x-6)
- divide both sides by -2x => 0 = x^2+x-6
- factor => (x+3)(x-2) = 0
- find zeros by setting both factors equal to 0 => x=-3, x=2
This means that the 3rd answer is correct. The last answer, while having the correct leading coefficient, will produce roots of 3 and -2 instead of -3 and 2, which is shown on the graph.
It has been given that y varies inversely with x, therefore the equation for this relationship is as follows;
y =
\
when y = -18 and x = 6
-18 = k/ 6 ---1)
We need to find x when y = 5
5 = k/x
when we divide 1)/2), k gets cancelled
x = -18*6/5
x = -21.6
when y = 5, then x = -21.6
