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}

Answer:a


Step-by-step explanation:

h(x)=x-12

h(x)=4x-48

h(x)=-1(4x-48)

h(x)=-4x+48

velikii [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Frequency table for the height of the seedlings,

Height (in inches)        Number of seedlings

          \frac{1}{2}                                      2              

          \frac{3}{4}                                      4

          \frac{5}{8}                                      2

          \frac{7}{8}                                      2

Now we can draw the line plot as attached.

Average height of the seedlings = \frac{2(\frac{1}{2})+4(\frac{3}{4})+2(\frac{5}{8})+2(\frac{7}{8})}{2+4+2+2}

                                                      = \frac{1+3+1.25+1.75}{10}

                                                      = \frac{7}{10}

10x +7 = -3х – 3 help guys
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

x = -10/13

Step-by-step explanation:

10x + 7 = -3x - 3

Add 3x to both sides

10x + 3x + 7 = -3x + 3x - 3

13x + 7 = 0x - 3

13x + 7 = -3

Subtract 7 from both sides

13x + 7 - 7 = -3 - 7

13x + 0 = -10

13x = -10

Divide both sides by 13

13x ÷ 13 = -10 ÷ 13

1x = -10/13

x = -10/13
