First simplify the equation of parabola
in the following way:
.
You can see that if x=1 or x=2, then y=0. Two points of intersection with x-axis are (1,0) and (2,0).
Answer:
p(x) = 8x - 20
Step-by-step explanation:
revenue from selling x shirts is f(x) = 15x
The cost of buying x shirts is c(x) = 7x + 20
p(x) = f(x) - c(x)
To solve this, we need to substitute value of f(x) and c(x) in formula for p(x)
p(x) = f(x) - c(x)
p(x) = 15x -( 7x + 20)
=> p(x) = 15x - 7x -20
=> p(x) = 8x -20
Thus, profit is p(x) = 8x - 20.
The a and b determine how big or small the shape of the conic section is.
<span>For the different conic sections given through the equations </span>
<span>Circle: x^2/a^2 + y^2/a^2=1 </span>
<span>Ellipse: x^2/b^2+y^2/a^2 = 1 </span>
<span>Hyperbola: x^2/a^2 - y^2/b^2 = 1 </span>
<span>When trying to isolate cos and sin from those equations to get cos^2t + sin^2 t = 1 you can determine the conic section when substituting cos t = x/a and sint = y/b into cos^2t+sin^2t square it and then refer to the conic section equations to determine the conic section. x defines the major axis and y is the minor axis. a and b provide the coordinate pairs</span>
True.
The absolute value of anything is the distance that value is away from zero.
For instance, |-5 + 1| = 4
As we can see, any number that we plug into this equation will always be a number equal to or greater than zero.
