Match the parabolas represented by the equations with their foci.

Elenna [48]

Function 1 $f(x)=- x^{2} +4x+8$

First step: Finding when $f(x)$ is minimum/maximum
The function has a negative value $x^{2}$ hence the $f(x)$ has a maximum value which happens when $x=- \frac{b}{2a}=- \frac{4}{(2)(1)}=2$ . The foci of this parabola lies on $x=2$ .

Second step: Find the value of y-coordinate by substituting $x=2$ into $f(x)$ which give $y=- (2)^{2} +4(2)+8=12$

Third step: Find the distance of the foci from the y-coordinate
$y=- x^{2} +4x+8$ - Multiply all term by -1 to get a positive $x^{2}$
$-y= x^{2} -4x-8$ - then manipulate the constant of y to get a multiply of 4
$4(- \frac{1}{4})y= x^{2} -4x-8$
So the distance of focus is 0.25 to the south of y-coordinates of the maximum, which is $12- \frac{1}{4}=11.75$

Hence the coordinate of the foci is (2, 11.75)

Function 2: $f(x)= 2x^{2}+16x+18$

The function has a positive $x^{2}$ so it has a minimum

First step - $x=- \frac{b}{2a}=- \frac{16}{(2)(2)}=-4$
Second step - $y=2(-4)^{2}+16(-4)+18=-14$
Third step - Manipulating $f(x)$ to leave $x^{2}$ with constant of 1
$y=2 x^{2} +16x+18$ - Divide all terms by 2
$\frac{1}{2}y= x^{2} +8x+9$ - Manipulate the constant of y to get a multiply of 4
$4( \frac{1}{8}y= x^{2} +8x+9$

So the distance of focus from y-coordinate is $\frac{1}{8}$ to the north of $y=-14$
Hence the coordinate of foci is (-4, -14+0.125) = (-4, -13.875)

Function 3: $f(x)=-2 x^{2} +5x+14$

First step: the function's maximum value happens when $x=- \frac{b}{2a}=- \frac{5}{(-2)(2)}= \frac{5}{4}=1.25$
Second step: $y=-2(1.25)^{2}+5(1.25)+14=17.125$
Third step: Manipulating $f(x)$
$y=-2 x^{2} +5x+14$ - Divide all terms by -2
$-2y= x^{2} -2.5x-7$ - Manipulate coefficient of y to get a multiply of 4
$4(- \frac{1}{8})y= x^{2} -2.5x-7$
So the distance of the foci from the y-coordinate is - $\frac{1}{8}$ south to y-coordinate

Hence the coordinate of foci is (1.25, 17)

Function 4: following the steps above, the maximum value is when $x=8.5$ and $y=79.25$ . The distance from y-coordinate is 0.25 to the south of y-coordinate, hence the coordinate of foci is (8.5, 79.25-0.25)=(8.5,79)

Function 5: the minimum value of the function is when $x=-2.75$ and $y=-10.125$ . Manipulating coefficient of y, the distance of foci from y-coordinate is $\frac{1}{8}$ to the north. Hence the coordinate of the foci is (-2.75, -10.125+0.125)=(-2.75, -10)

Function 6: The maximum value happens when $x=1.5$ and $y=9.5$ . The distance of the foci from the y-coordinate is $\frac{1}{8}$ to the south. Hence the coordinate of foci is (1.5, 9.5-0.125)=(1.5, 9.375)

Which of the following shows that ABCD is a parallelogram for x=6 and y =8? (20 points)

Reika [66]

Answer:

AB = CD = 44 and BC = AD = 31 ; so ABCD is a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram should have two pairs of parallel sides meaning the length of side AB should be the same as the length of side CD and the length of side AD should be the same as the length of side BC.

First, lets see if line AB is parallel to line CD.

Let's start by finding out the length of line AB.

Since we know x = 6 we will replace x with 6 in the expression:

7(6) + 2 = 42 + 2 = 44

Now that we know the length of line AB is 44, lets find the length of line CD by replacing x with its value of 6:

9(6) - 10 = 54 - 10 = 44

Now that we know the length of line CD is 44, we can see that line AB is parallel to line CD since they both have the same length of 44.

Now, lets see if line BC is parallel to line AD.

Let's start by finding out the length of line BC.

Since we know y = 8 we will replace y with 8 in the expression:

3(8) + 7 = 24 + 7 = 31

Now that we know the length of line BC is 31, lets find the length of line AD by replacing y with its value of 8:

5(8) - 9 = 40 - 9 = 31

Now that we know the length of line AD is 31, we can see that line BC is parallel to line AD since they both have the same length of 31.

Conclusion

ABCD is a parallelogram because it contains two parallel sides.
