11. What is the location of the vertex of the parabola defined by f(x) = −3x2 − 18x − 35 and in what direction does the parabola

lbvjy [14]

11. The given parabola has equation: $f(x)=-3x^2-18x-35$

We complete the square to have the function in the vertex form: $f(x)=-3(x^2+6x)-35$

$f(x)=-3(x^2+6x+9)+3*9-35$

$f(x)=-3(x^2+6x+9)+27-35$

$f(x)=-3(x+3)^2-8$

The vertex is (-3,-8), the graph opens down because a=-3<0

Ans: B. Vertex: (−3, −8), opens downward

12. We know the graph of $y=x^2$ is a parabola that opens up and has its minimum point at the origin.

The range of this function is $y\ge 0$

A straight line that has its y-intercept below the x-axis (y=3x-6) will not intersect $y=x^2$ and hence will form a system with no solution.

Ans: D. y equals x squared, y equals 3x minus 6

14. We want to find the zeros of $x^2+21x=5x-63$

$x^2+21x-5x+63=0$

$x^2+16x+63=0$

The factored form is $(x+7)(x+9)=0$

$x=-7\:or\: x=-9$

Ans: C. x = −7, −9

15. The given quadratic expression is $6x^2-17x+10$

We split the middle term to obtain:

$6x^2-12x-5x+10=0$

We factor by grouping to get:

$6x(x-2)-5(x-2)=0$

$(x-2)(6x-5)=0$

Ans: D. 6x − 5

each morning a gardener uses 24 1/2 gallons of water from a metal reservoir.each afternoon,she adds 15 1/4 gallons of water to t

Alika [10]

Every day, the volume increases by 24 1/2+15 1/4=39 3/4 gallons. So after 5 days, the volume increases by 39 3/4 * 5 = 795/4= 198.75 gallons

There is $500 in Holly's bank account. She takes out $50 from her account each month but doesn't put money back in. What is the

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The rate of change or slope m = -50

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

$y = mx+b$

where

m is the rate of change or slope

b is the y-intercept

Given that there is $500 in Holly's bank account.

Thus, the y-intercept b = 500

It is stated that she takes out $50 from her account each month but doesn't put money back in.

It means the rate of change or slope is decreasing.

Thus, the rate of change or slope m = -50

<u>EXTRA BONUS!</u>

We can also determine the line equation by substituting m = -50 and b = 500 in the slope-intercept form

$y = mx+b$

y = -50x + 500

Here:

The slope m = -50

The y-intercept = 500

Can someone please help me its urgent!!!!!!!!!!<br> 3x + 11 = 3x - 11

user100 [1]

Answer:

$\Large\boxed{\mathsf{\Rightarrow NO\quad SOLUTIONS}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>TO SOLVE:</u></h3>

Isolate by the x on one side of the equation.

<h3><u>SOLUTIONS:</u></h3>

First, subtract 3x from both sides.

$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \mathsf{3x+11-3x=3x-11-3x}}$

Solve.

$\displaystyle \mathsf{11=-11}$

Sides are NOT equal.

$\Large\boxed{\mathsf{\Rightarrow THERE \quad ARE \quad NO \quad SOLUTIONS}}}$

Therefore, there are no solutions.
