Find the line of symmetry equation for the function f(x )=x −2x −3.

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The line of symmetry is defined as the x value of the vertex of a parabola.

To find the vertex of a parabola, we need to convert to vertex form.

Vertex form looks like this:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where -h is the x value of the vertex and k is the y value of the vertex.

H is also defined as \frac{-b}{2a} where a is the coefficient of x squared and b is the coefficient of the x term.

The coefficient of the x squared term is 1 and the coefficient of b is -2.

Plugging in, we get \frac{-(-2)}{2(1)}, which is equal to 1. This can then be plugged into the equation as

y=1(x-1)^2+k, but k doesn't matter because all we need is the x-term. Now, our x-term is negative h, which is negative negative one, which is positive one. Therefore, our answer is x = 1.

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Was the equation actually

f(x) = x² - 2x - 3

--------------------------

the line of symmetry occurs at the midpoint of the roots

factor

(x + 1)(x - 3)

x = { -1, 3}

midpoint of roots

x = (-1 + 3)/2

x = 1

line of symmetry

x = 1

Solve for w -24=-3w+21
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

w = 11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we are going to move all of the terms containing the variable w to the left side of the equation and all of the constant terms (ones with numbers only) to the right side of the equation.

w - 24 = -3w + 21

To do this, we should first add 24 to both sides of the equation.

w - 24 + 24 = -3w +21 + 24

If we simplify, we get:

w =  -3w + 45

Next, we should add 3w to both sides of the equation.

w + 3w = -3w + 3w + 45

4w = 45

Finally, we can divide both sides by 4.

4w/4 = 45/4

w = 11.25

Hope this helps!

Find the indefinite integral. (Remember to use absolute values where appropriate. Use C for the constant of integration.) dx x(l
Pepsi [2]

I'm assuming the integral is

\displaystyle \int \frac{dx}{x (\ln(x^2))^5}

We have

\ln(x^2) = 2 \ln|x| \implies (\ln(x^2))^5 = 32 (\ln|x|)^5

Then substituting y=\ln|x| and dy=\frac{dx}x, the integral transforms and reduces to

\displaystyle \int \frac{dx}{x(\ln(x^2))^5} = \frac1{32} \int \frac{dy}{y^5} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \frac1{32} \left(-\frac1{4y^4}\right) + C \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = -\frac1{128(\ln|x|)^4} + C

which we can rewrite as

128 (\ln|x|)^4 = 8\cdot2^4(\ln|x|)^4 = 8 (2\ln|x|)^4 = 8 (\ln(x^2))^4

and so

\displaystyle \int \frac{dx}{x (\ln(x^2))^5} = \boxed{-\frac1{8(\ln(x^2))^4} + C}

A hat is on sale for h dollars. The regular price is 7 times as much. Charlie has enough money to buy two hats at the regular pr
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Charlie can buy 14 hats at the sale price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h ----> the sale price of the hat

x ---> the regular price of the hat

we know that

x=7h ----> equation A

so

Two hats at the regular price  is equal to multiply 2 by x

Multiply by 2 equation A both sides

2x=(7h)*2

2x=14h

2 hats at the regular price cost the same that 14 hats at the sale price

therefore

Charlie can buy 14 hats at the sale price

Two lines have a slope of 3 and different y-intercepts how many solutions will this system have
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

0 solutions / no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, it means that they are parallel.

For example, we have two lines:  

y = x

y = x + 1

Both lines have the same slope of 1, but different y - intercepts. Because each equation increases the x and y at the same right (slope) but started at different points, the two equations will never touch.

It's similar to two runner who run at the same pace. If one runner started 50 meters ahead, that runner will always be ahead 50 meters (y-intercept) because they both run at the same rate.
