Write a quadratic function, in standard form, that fits the set of points. Solve it as a system of three equations. (-4, 9), (0,

Tresset [83]

Answer:

$\boxed{y=2x^2+4x-7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the quadratic function be

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

We substitute $(-4,9)$ into the equation to obtain;

$9=a(-4)^2+b(-4)+c$

$\Rightarrow 9=16a-4b+c---(1)$

We substitute $(0,-7)$ to obtain;

$-7=a(0)^2+b(0)^2+c$

$\Rightarrow c=-7---(2)$

We finally substitute $(1,-1)$ to obtain;

$-1=a(1)^2+b(1)^2+c$

$\Rightarrow -1=a+b+c---(3)$

We put equation (2) into equation (1) to get;

$9=16a-4b-7$

$16a-4b=16$

$\Rightarrow 4a-b=4---(4)$

$\Rightarrow -1=a+b-7$

$\Rightarrow a+b=6---(5)$

We add equation (4) and (5) to get;

$4a+a=6+4$

$\Rightarrow 5a=10$

$\Rightarrow a=2$

We put $a=2$ into equation (5) to get;

$2+b=6$

$\Rightarrow b=6-2$

$\Rightarrow b=4$

The reqiured quadratic function is

$y=2x^2+4x-7$

How to do 2x+4=12 plz show how you got it

OverLord2011 [107]

2x + 4 = 12

We're simply just trying to isolate x.

So, we must get x onto it's own side of the equal sign :)

Our first step is to subtract 4 from both sides.

2x + 4 - 4 = 12 - 4

Simplify.

2x = 8

Then, we divide both sides by 2.

2x ÷ 2 = 8 ÷ 2

Simplify.

x = 4

----------

To check your work, simply plug in the value of x into x in the original equation.

In this problem, x = 4, so plug in 4 for x.

2x + 4 = 12

2(4) + 4 = 12

Simplify.

8 + 4 = 12

12 = 12

Therefore, x = 4

A fenced in rectangular region with the dimensions 4 yards by 8 yards is suddenly expanded by the same distance in each dimensio

Korolek [52]

Answer:

The distance added to each dimension is 2 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial dimensions of the rectangular fence is 8 yards by 4 yards.

The initial area of the rectangular fence = area of a rectangle

area of a rectangle = length x width

So that,

The initial area of the fence = 8 x 4

= 32

The initial area of the fence is 32 square yards.

But, with the new dimensions, area = 60 square yards.

(4 + x) x (8 + x) = 60

$x^{2}$ + 12x + 28 = 60

$x^{2}$ + 12x - 32 = 0

(x + 14) = 0 or (x - 2) = 0

x = -14 or x =2

Thus, x = 2

The distance added to each dimension is 2 yards.
