Answer:

a = 2, b = - 3, c = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand f(x) = a(x + b)² + c and compare coefficients of like terms, that is

a(x + b)² + c ← expand (x + b)² using FOIL

= a(x² + 2bx + b²) + c ← distribute parenthesis by a

= ax² + 2abx + ab² + c

Compare like terms with f(x) = 2x² - 12x + 10

Compare coefficients x² term

a = 2

Compare coefficients of x- term

2ab = - 12, substitute a = 2

2(2)b = - 12

4b = - 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )

b = - 3

Compare constant term

ab² + c = 10 , substitute a = 2, b = - 3

2(- 3)² + c = 10

18 + c = 10 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

c = - 8

Then a = 2, b = - 3, c = - 8

A volleyball player serves the ball from a height of 6.5 feet above the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 21 feet per
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Option D. H(t) = 6.5+21t-16t^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If air resistance is ignored, the height h (in feet) of the ball t seconds after it is served is given by

H(t) = - \frac{1}{2}g t^2 + V_0t + H_0

where

g is the acceleration due to gravity which on earth is approximately equal to 32 feet / sec^2

V_0 is the initial velocity (when t = 0 )

H_0 is the initial height (when t = 0)

In this problem we have

V_0=21\ ft/sec\\H_0=6.5\ ft

substitute the given values

H(t) = - \frac{1}{2}(32) t^2 + (21)t + 6.5

H(t) = -16t^2 + 21t + 6.5

Rewrite

H(t) = 6.5+21t-16t^2

What’s the right answer?
galina1969 [7]

The slope of a line characterizes the direction of a line. To find the slope, you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points .

I am unable to read all of the options in the picture you provided but I hope this helps! (:

Find inverse of f(x)=x^3-9<br>Not sure of my answer!​
Katyanochek1 [597]

as you may already know, to get the inverse of any expression, we start off by doing a quick switcheroo on the variables, and then solve for "y".

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=x^3-9\implies \stackrel{\textit{quick switcheroo}}{\underline{x}=\underline{y}^3-9}\implies x+9=y^3\implies \sqrt[3]{x+9}=\stackrel{f^{-1}(x)}{y}
