Because the vertex of the parabola is at (16,0), its equation is of the formy = a(x-10)² + 15
The graph goes through (0,0), thereforea(0 - 10)² + 15 = 0100a = -15a = -0.15
The equation is y = f(x) = -0.15(x - 10)² + 15
The graph is shown below.
Part A
Note that y = f(x).
The x-intercepts identify values where the function or y=0. The x-intercepts occur at x=0 and x=20, or at (0,0) and (20,0).
The maximum value of y occurs at the vertex (10, 15) because the curve is down due to the negative leading coefficient of -0.15.
The curve increases in the interval x = (-∞, 10) and it decreases in the interval x = (10, ∞).
Part B
When x=12, y = -0.15(12 - 10)² + 15 = 14.4When x=15, y = -0.15(15 - 10)² + 15 = 11.25
The average rate of change between x =12 to x = 15 is(11.25 - 14.4)/(15 - 12) = -1.05
This rate of change represents the slope of the secant line from A to B. It approximates the rate at which f(x) decreases in the interval x =[12, 15].
Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
you can solve this by dividing 250/20=12.5
Answer: Third option:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation in Slope Intercept form of a line that does not pass through the point (0,0), which is known as "Origin, is the following:
Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.
The equation in Slope Intercept form of a line that passes through the Origin, is:
Where "m" is the slope of the line.
In this case you can observe in the picture attached that the line passes through the point (0,0).
You can also notice that "y" would be the Dependent variable and "x" the Independent variable.
Therefore, the equation of this must have this form:
The only equation that matches with that form, is the one given in the Third option. This is:
12/66--->x/22
12/66--->4/22 (almost 4/20 if you know what I mean)
