A) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(0) = 2(0) - 3
f(0) = 0 - 3
f(0) = -3
b) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(-2) = 2(-2) - 3
f(-2) = -4 - 3
f(-2) = -7
c) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(3) = 2(3) - 3
f(3) = 6 - 3
f(3) = 3
d) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(-1) = 2(-1) - 3
f(-1) = -2 - 3
f(-1) = -5
Answer:
Below
Step-by-step explanation:
● x^2 + 11x + 121/4 = 125/4
Substract 125/4 from both sides:
● x^2 + 11x + 121/4-125/4= 125/4 -125/4
● x^2 + 11x - (-4/4) = 0
● x^2 +11x -(-1) = 0
● x^2 + 11 x + 1 = 0
This is a quadratic equation so we will use the determinanant (b^2-4ac)
● a = 1
● b = 11
● c = 1
● b^2-4ac = 11^2-4*1*1 = 117
So this equation has two solutions:
● x = (-b -/+ √(b^2-4ac) ) / 2a
● x = (-11 -/+ √(117) ) / 2
● x = (-11 -/+ 3√(13))/ 2
● x = -0.91 or x = -10.9
Round to the nearest unit
● x = -1 or x = -11
The solutions are { -1,-11}
Answer:168
Step-by-step explanation:
The ball describes a parabola, as you can see in the attached picture. So, the point where the ball strike the ground is the point where the parabola meets the x axis. In fact, the x-axis is the set of points where y=0, which means that the ball has height 0 or -again- it hits the ground.
So, we have to set y=0 in our equation and look for the positive solution. We have

And the positive solution is

So that's the distance from the child where the ball strikes the ground.
