Answer:
b. 4x^2 + 3x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The values of f(x) for the extremes of x are more positive than the value of f(x) for the middle x, so we know the parabola opens upward. That eliminates choice D.
It is probably easiest to evaluate the other expressions to see which one matches the given f(x) values. For the purpose, it is usually easier to use the Horner form of the equation.
a. f(-2) = (3(-2) +4)(-2) -6 = -2(-2) -6 = -2 ≠ 4
b. f(-2) = (4(-2) +3)(-2) -6 = -5(-2) -6 = 4 . . . . matches the given data point
c. Because (b) matches, we know this one will not.
The appropriate choice is B.
Answer:
12.5 sq. units
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the blue triangle into two smaller triangles.
The length of their common base = 5 units
The height of the <u>yellow</u> triangle = 2 units
The height of the <u>red</u> triangle = 3 units
The area of the yellow triangle
= (5×2)÷2
= 5 sq. units
The area of the red triangle
= (5×3)÷2
= 7.5 sq. units
The total area
= 5+7.5
= 12.5 sq. units
