a road follows the shape of a parabola f(x)=3x2– 24x + 39. A road that follows the function g(x) = 3x – 15 must cross the stream

at point A and then again at point B. Bridges must be built at those points. Identify the coordinates where the bridges must be built.

the coordinates where the bridges must be built is (3,-6) and (6,3) .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , a road follows the shape of a parabola f(x)=3x2– 24x + 39. A road that follows the function g(x) = 3x – 15 must cross the stream at point A and then again at point B. Bridges must be built at those points.We need to find Identify the coordinates where the bridges must be built. Let's find out:

Basically we need to find values of x for which f(x) = g(x) :

⇒ f(x)-g(x)=0

⇒ 3x^2- 24x + 39-(3x - 15 ) =0

⇒ 3x^2- 24x + 39-3x + 15  =0

⇒ 3x^2- 27x + 54  =0

⇒ x^2- 9x + 18  =0

⇒ x^2- 6x-3x + 18  =0

⇒ x(x- 6)-3(x - 6)  =0

⇒ (x-3)(x- 6)  =0

⇒ x=3 , x=6

Value of g(x) at x = 3 : y=3x -15 = 3(3)-15 = -6

Value of g(x) at x = 6 : y=3x -15 = 3(6)-15 = 3

Therefore , the coordinates where the bridges must be built is (3,-6) and (6,3) .

How many square feet of outdoor carpet will we need for this hole? 12ft , 2ft, 2ft, 4ft
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

44 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

so first, you get the area for the outer rectangle

12*4=48

so the area is 48, but there is a 2x2 square cut out so subtract that area

2*2=4

48-4=44

<span>f(x+5/4) means that f(x) is translated 5/4 units left. f(x-5/4) means that f(x) is translated 5/4 units right. f(x)-5/4 means that f(x) is translated 5/4 units down. f(x)+5/4 means that f(x) is translated 5/4 units up. f(x*5/4) means that f(x) is compressed by a factor of 5/4. f(x/5/4) means that f(x) is stretched by a factor of 5/4.</span>
