(6y - 11)(6y + 11) = ay² - b    |use (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

(6y)² - 11² =ay² - b

36y² - 121 = ay² - b    |add b to both sides

ay² = 36y² - 121 + b        |divide both sides by y² ≠ 0

a = (36y² - 121 + b)/y²

\boxed{a=\dfrac{36y^2-121+b}{y^2}}

Why does the fraction 20/25 not belong with 1/20, 2/3 and 5/4?
devlian [24]
I’m not 100% sure but I think it’s because 20/25 can still be simplified further, while the other 3 can’t.

Consider the function: f(x) = 2x^2 - 1.5x - 5 and its graph.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

f(x) = -4x² + 19x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x^2 - 1.5x - 5

i) If it is translated 2 units in the positive x direction, therefore we use f(x-2)

y=f(x-2) = 2(x-2)^2 - 1.5(x-2) - 5\\y = 2(x^2-4x+4) - 1.5x+3 - 5\\y=2x^2-8x+8-1.5x+3-5\\y=2x^2-9.5x+6

f(x) = 2x² - 9.5x + 6

If it is then translated 3 units in the positive y, we add 3 to the input function to get:

y=f(x)+3=2x^2-9.5x+6+3\\y = 2x^2-9.5x+9

ii) stretched vertically by a factor of 2, we multiply the function by 2 to get:

y =2( 2x^2-9.5x+9) = 4x^2-19x+18\\y= 4x^2-19x+18

iii) reflected across the x-axis

we multiply the parent function by –1, to get a reflection about the x-axis.

y= -1(4x^2-19x+18)=-4x^2+19x-18\\y=f(x)=-4x^2+19x-18

mrs.jones is thinking of a number thst when rounded to nearest hundred is 400 what is the number explain
kherson [118]
The number could be several different ones. Are you sure that's exactly what the problem says? If not, I'm going to ask you write the entire problem. If not, then whoever made it did not give enough information for there to be an absolute answer. I'm sorry I couldn't help you, but I really hope I can with more information.
