Answer:

Completing the square is a method that will solve all quadratic equations. By completing the square on the general quadratic equation, we obtain a formula that is worth learning and that will solve all quadratic equations.

The quadratic formula does the same thing as completing the square.  The formula reads: x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The a, b and c terms are the coefficients of a polynomial where a is the coefficient of the squared term, b the linear term and c the constant when the equation is set equal to zero [ax squared plus bx plus c = 0].

Solving quadratics with this formula is then just as simple as substituting the numbers from an equation into these placeholder variables. Then, you need to simplify the expression to get the two solutions, one where you use the plus sign and the other the minus sign.

What is the constant of variation for the quadratic variation? 0.1y = 3x2
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The constant of variation for the given quadratic equation is, 30

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the form of a quadratic equation is written as:

y = kx^2     ....[1]

where k is the coefficient and for this case the constant of variation.

In order to obtain the answer for the given equation, we write the given equation to the form above.

0.1y=3x^2  or

y=(\frac{3}{0.1})x^2 or

y=30x^2

Comparing this equation with equation [1], to get the value of k;

k=30.

therefore, the  constant of variation is, 30.

Given that (-4,2) is on the graph of f(x) find the corresponding point for the function -1/2f(x)
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The corresponding point is (-4.-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The point (-4,2) is on the graph of f(x)

so

For x=-4

f(x)=2

therefore

For x=-4

-(1/2)f(x)=-(1/2)*2=-1

The corresponding point is (-4.-1)

The equation y ̂=844.697x^2+3723.485x-13,650 models the annual profits of a new business, where x is the number of years since t
julsineya [31]
The answer is $37,923

<span>y = 844.697x^2 + 3723.485x - 13,650
x - number of years
y - the annual profit

If x = 8, the annual profit y is:
y = </span>844.697 * 8^2 + 3723.485 * 8 - 13,650
y = 844.697 * 64 + 29,787.88 - 13,650
y = 54,060.608 + 16,137.88
y = 37,922.728 ≈ 37,923

3x+3y=180 what is the answer to this problem
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

If you are solving the equation for x :

3x + 3y = 180

3x = -3y + 180

x = -y + 60 or x = 60 - y

If you are solving the equation for y:

3x + 3y = 180

3y = -3x + 180

y = -x + 60 or y = 60 - x

Exercise 3.5. For each of the following functions determine the inverse image of T = {x ∈ R : 0 ≤ [x^2 − 25}.
masya89 [10]

a. The inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)

b. The inverse image of g(x) is g^{-1}(x) = e^{x}

c. The inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9

<h3 /><h3>The domain of T</h3>

Since T = {x ∈ R : 0 ≤ [x^2 − 25} ⇒ x² - 25 ≥ 0

⇒ x² ≥ 25

⇒ x ≥ ±5

⇒ -5 ≤ x ≤ 5.

<h3>Inverse image of f(x)</h3>

The inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)

f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3x³

Let f(x) = y.

So, y = 3x³

Dividing through by 3, we have

y/3 = x³

Taking cube root of both sides, we have

x = ∛(y/3)

Replacing y with x we have

y = ∛(x/3)

Replacing y with f⁻¹(x), we have

So,  the inverse image of f(x) is f⁻¹(x) = ∛(x/3)

<h3>Inverse image of g(x)</h3>

The inverse image of g(x) is g^{-1}(x) = e^{x}

g : R+ → R defined by g(x) = ln(x).

Let g(x) = y

y =  ln(x)

Taking exponents of both sides, we have

e^{y} = e^{lnx} \\e^{y} = x

Replacing x with y, we have

y = e^{x}

Replacing y with g⁻¹(x), we have

So, the inverse image of g(x) is g^{-1}(x) = e^{x}

<h3>Inverse image of h(x)</h3>

The inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9

h : R → R defined by h(x) = x − 9

Let y = h(x)

y = x - 9

Adding 9 to both sides, we have

y + 9 = x

Replacing x with y, we have

x + 9 = y

Replacing y with h⁻¹(x), we have

So, the inverse image of <u>h</u>(x) is h⁻¹(x) = x + 9
