A parabola is a quadratic function, and a quadratic can be expressed in vertex form, which is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the vertex (absolute maximum or minimum point of the quadratic)

In this case we are given that (h,k) is (-5,80) so we have so far:

y=a(x--5)^2+80

y=a(x+5)^2+80, we are also told that it passes through the point (0,-45) so:

-45=a(0+5)^2+80

-45=25a+80  subtract 80 from both sides

-125=25a  divide both sides by 25

-5=a, so now we know the complete vertex form is:

y=-5(x+5)^2+80

The x-intercepts occur when y=0 so:

0=-5(x+5)^2+80  add 5(x+5)^2 to both sides

5(x+5)^2=80  divide both sides by 5

(x+5)^2=16  take the square root of both sides

x+5=±√16  which is

x+5=±4  subtract 5 from both sides

x=-5±4 so the x-intercepts are:

x=-1 and -9

(a) Starting with the geometric series [infinity] xn n = 0 , find the sum of the series [infinity] nxn − 1 n = 1 , |x| < 1.
Mila [183]

Let <em>f(x)</em> be the sum of the geometric series,

f(x)=\displaystyle\frac1{1-x} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n

for |<em>x</em>| < 1. Then taking the derivative gives the desired sum,

f'(x)=\displaystyle\boxed{\dfrac1{(1-x)^2}} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty nx^{n-1} = \sum_{n=1}^\infty nx^{n-1}

Find the area of the figure.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

20 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shows a triangle whose;

  • Base AC is 8 units
  • Height is 5 units

We are supposed to get its area;

Area of a triangle is given by the formula;

Area = 0.5×b×h

Thus;

Area = 0.5 × 8 units × 5 units

        = 20 square units

Hence, the area of the figure is 20 square units
