<h3>Answer:</h3>

The closest choice is ...

C)  27.48 and 5.20

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Using the equation ...

  y = ax² + bx + c

You can substitute the first three points to get linear equations in a, b, and c.

  10 = a(-3)² +b(-3) +c = 9a -3b +c

  4 = a(0)² + b(0) +c = c

  -1 = a(3)² + b(3) +c = 9a +3b +c

The second equation tells us c=4. Subtracting the first equation from the last, we get ...

  (9a +3b +c) -(9a -3b +c) = (-1) -(10)

  6b = -11

  b = -11/6

Then we can find "a" from the first equation:

  10 = 9a -3(-11/6) +4

  1/2 = 9a . . . . subtract 19/2

  1/18 = a . . . . . divide by 9

The model is ...

  y = (1/18)x² -(11/6)x +4 . . . . . . . . [call this "model A"]

  y = (x² -33x +72)/18

Solving this for y = -4, we have ...

  -4 = (x² -33x +72)/18

  x² -33x +144 = 0 . . . . . . multiply by 18, add 72

  (x -16.5)² -128.25 = 0 . . . . put in vertex form

  x = 16.5 ±√128.25 ≈ {5.17525, 27.8248}

___

The closest values to these among the choices offered are those of choice C. It appears that the coefficients of <em>model A</em> were rounded to 3 decimal places (or so) before the predicted x-values were computed.

Determine if the following table represents a quadratic function.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

<em>The options are not visible enough (See Explanation)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x:-  1   || 2   || 3   || 4   || 5

y:-  13 || 22 || 37 || 58 || 85

Required

Determine if the function is quadratic

Calculate the difference between the values of y

Difference = 22 - 13 = 9

Difference = 37 - 22 = 15

Difference = 58 - 37 = 21

Difference = 85 - 58 = 27

<em>The resulting difference are: 9 || 15 || 21 ||  27</em>

Next; Calculate the difference between the difference of values of y

Difference = 15 - 9 = 6

Difference = 21 - 15 = 6

Difference = 27 - 21 = 6

<em>The resulting difference are: 6 || 6 || 6</em>

<em>For the function to be quadratic, the above difference must be the same and since they are the same (6), then the function represents a quadratic function.</em>

Advocard [28]

Answer:

y = 38 + 72t - 16t^2

Step-by-step explanation:

So, solve for t when y=48.

The max height is of course, when t = 64/32 = 2.

What percent is the change in the price if the price was $100 and now it is $1250?
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

  1150%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage change is ...

  percentage change = (amount of change)/(original amount) × 100%

  = ((new amount) - (original amount))/(original amount) × 100%

  = ($1250 -$100)/$100 × 100%

  = 1150/100 × 100%

  = 1150%
