Use the method of completing the square to write the equation of the given parabola in this form:
siniylev [52]
Formula is y = a(x-h)^2 + k

Where h is 1 and k is 1

f (x) = a(x-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(0-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(1) + 1

-3 - 1 = a

-4 = a

a = -4

A must be equal to -4

y = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

0 = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

4(x^2 - 2x + 1) - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 4 - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 3 = 0

4x^2 - 8x = -3

Divide fpr 4 each term of the equation....x^2 - 2x = -3/4

We must factor the perfect square ax^2 + bx + c which we don't have. We must follow the rule (b/2)^2 where b is -2....(-2/2)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1 and we add up that to both sides

x^2 - 2x + 1 = -3/4 + 1

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 1/4

(x-1)^2 = 1/4

square root both sides x-1 = (+/-) 1/2

x1 = +1/2 + 1 = 3/2

x2 = -1/2 + 1 = 1/2

x-intercepts are 1/2 and 3/2, in form (3/2,0); (1/2,0)

A principal of $950 is invested in an account at 7 percent simple interest per year. What is the amount of the principal after 5
Nataly_w [17]
\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P(1+rt)\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$950\\
r=rate\to 7\%\to \frac{7}{100}\to &0.07\\
t=years\to &5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=950(1+0.07\cdot 5)\implies A=950(1.35)\implies A=1282.5

A student estimated a mass of 250grams, according to the scale the mass is actually 240grams. What is the percent error? (round
NeX [460]

Answer:

4.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent error = (estimated value - actual value)/(actual value) × 100%

Here, the estimated value is 250 g, and the actual value is 250 g.

percent error = (estimated value - actual value)/(actual value) × 100%

percent error = (250 g - 240 g)/(240 g) × 100%

percent error = 10/240 × 100%

percent error = 0.041666... × 100%

percent error = 4.2%

For what value of x do the expressions 2/3x + 2 and 4/3x -6 have the same value
Masteriza [31]
<h2>The value of x = - \dfrac{10}{3}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expressiona are:

\dfrac{2}{3x+2} and \dfrac{4}{3x-6}

To find, the value of x = ?

∴  \dfrac{2}{3x+2}=\dfrac{4}{3x-6}

By crossmultiplication, we get

4(3x + 2) = 2(3x - 6)

⇒ 12x + 8 = 6x - 12

⇒ 12x - 6x =  - 12 - 8

⇒ 6x = - 20

⇒ 3x = - 10

⇒ x = - \dfrac{10}{3}

∴ The value of x = - \dfrac{10}{3}

Thus, the value of x is equal to - \dfrac{10}{3}.
