Answer:

Range is {y | y ≥ –11}


Step-by-step explanation:

This is quadratic equation.

<em>A quadratic equation's range can be found if we find the vertex.</em>

For quadratic equations that have a positive number in front of  x^{2} , it is upward opening and thus <u>all the numbers greater than or equal to the minimum value of vertex is the range.</u>


The formula for vertex of a parabola is:

Vertex =  (-\frac{b}{2a}, f(-\frac{b}{2a})

Where,

  • a is the coefficient of x^{2}
  • b is the coefficient of x

From our equation given, a=3  and  b=6

Now, x coordinate of vertex is  x=-\frac{b}{2a}\\x=-\frac{6}{(2)(3)}\\x=-\frac{6}{6}\\x=-1

y coordinate of the vertex IS THE MINIMUM VALUE that we want. We get this by plugging in the x value [ x=-1 ] into the equation. So we have:

3(-1)^{2}+6(-1)-8\\=-11


Hence, the range would be all numbers greater than or equal to -11  

Third answer choice is the right one.

3x^2 + 6x - 8 = 3(x^2 + 2x - 8/3) = 3(x^2 + 2x + 1 - 8/3 - 1) = 3(x + 1)^2 + 3(-8/3 - 1) = 3(x + 1) - 11
Vertex = (-1, -11)
Range = {y|y ≥ –11}

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

y(-4) = 5

y'(-4) = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Since the tangent line T and the curve y must coincide at x=-4

y(-4) = T(-4) = 5

On the other hand, the derivative of the curve evaluated at -4 y'(x=-4) must be the slope of the tangent line. Which inspecting the tangent line T(x) is -7

That is:

y'(-4) = -7

Answer:

3.

7.608

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number is any number which can't be written as a fraction this way. For example, pi and the square root of two cannot be expressed as a fraction of two whole numbers, so they are both irrational.

if we make the respective accounts in the first and second problem we will see that they are irrational numbers

the fourth is a periodic number, which falls within the irrational

the only rational is the third

velikii [3]
If you look at the denominators, they all have a common number they can all multiply into: 24. If you multiply each number in the fraction so that the denominator equals 24, you get this:
1/6 x 4 = 4/24
1/4 x 6 = 6/24
3/8 x 3 = 6/24

Therefore, blue frosting (1/6) is used the least.

Hope this helps:
