What’s the axis of symmetry?

Mathematics

Sloan [31]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

With the axis of symmetry, think of it as where you would slice this line in half, and both sides would look identical to each other. Since this is a quadratic function, this would be at where the vertex is.

The vertex is the part of the line where it "turns" around and starts going the other way. So vertex of this line is at (-1, 3).

Therefore, the axis of symmetry is at x = -1. This is since the function is pointing either up/down, and any value that is x = _ is a vertical line.

Irene knows there are 2 cups in 1 pint. She writes the equation c=2p to find the number of cups, c, in any number of pints, p. U

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as there are no options to select from.

However, a general explanation is as follows.

Given

$2\ cups = 1\ pint$

Required

Is $c = 2p$ a correct expression?

Let

$c = cups$

$p = pint$

So:

$2\ cups = 1\ pint$

becomes

$2 * c = 1 * p$

$2c = p$

Divide both sides by 2

$c =\frac{1}{2}p$

Hence:

$c = 2p$ is incorrect

Find the value of n, correct to 4 significant figures.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

6.708

Step-by-step explanation:

Y varies directly as the square of x (Given)

$\implies y\:\alpha \:x^2$ ......(1)

Y varies inversely as the square root of z (Given)
$\implies y\:\alpha\: \frac{1}{\sqrt z}$ ......(2)

Combining (1) & (2), we find:

$y\:\alpha \:\frac{x^2}{\sqrt z}$

$\implies y=\frac{kx^2}{\sqrt z}$ (Where k is constant of proportionality).....(3)

Now, when y = 2, x = 3 and z = 4, we find the value of k i.e. constant.

$2=\frac{k(3)^2}{\sqrt 4}$

$\implies 2=\frac{k(9)}{2}$

$\implies k =\frac{4}{9}$

Plugging the value of k in (3), we find:

$y=\frac{4x^2}{9\sqrt z}$ ....(4)

Next, in equation (4), plug y = 5, x = n and z = 16 and obtain the value of n by solving it.

$5=\frac{4(n)^2}{9\sqrt {16}}$

$\implies 5=\frac{4(n)^2}{9(4)}$

$\implies 5=\frac{(n)^2}{9}$

$\implies 5(9)=(n)^2$

$\implies 45=(n)^2$

$\implies n=\sqrt{45}$

$\implies n=6.70820393$

$\implies n\approx 6.708$
