Answer:
8/11
Step-by-step explanation:
5+3=8
F(x) = 2x² - 8x - 10.
This is a parabola open upward (since a>0) with an axis of symmetry = -b/2a:
a) axis of symmetry: x = -(-8)/(2*2) = 8/4 = 2. Then x = 2, which is the x component of the vertex
b) for x = 2, f(x) = f(2) = - 18 (component of y of the vertex)
c) VERTEX(2, - 18)
d) DISCRIMINENT: b² - 4.a.c = 64 - 4*2*(-10) = 144
The expression to find the number of notebooks James bought would be written as:
Number of notebooks = total spent / cost per item
Number of notebooks = (2y^2 + 6) / <span>(y^2 − 1)
</span><span>If y = 3, then the number of notebooks bought would be:
</span>Number of notebooks = (2y^2 + 6) / (y^2 − 1)
Number of notebooks = (2(3)^2 + 6) / (3^2 − 1)
Number of notebooks = 3 pieces<span>
