Answer:
I don't know if I understood the question correctly, but this is what I have...
Step-by-step explanation:
If the "x" is a variable:
(2x-3)-(1-1)=
2x-3
If th "x" is a multiplication sign:
(2x-3)-(1-1)=
-6-0=
-6
i hope this helps
Answer:
<u>Fred.</u>
Started hang gliding at a height of 700 ft and descends 15 feet every seconds
<u>Gene</u>
Started hang gliding at a height of 575 ft and descends 10 feet every seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The function that models Fred's hang gliding is 
The initial value is 700 feet. This Fred was 700 feet above see level before he starts descending.
The rate of descent is -15 ft/s. This means Fred descends 15 feet in one second.
From the table the initial height is 575 ft. This means Gene was 575 feet above sea-level at the beginning of the hang gliding.
The rate of descent is
ft/s.
This means that in every seconds, Gene descends 10 feet.
Answer: f(x) = − one fourth (x − 8)2
Step-by-step explanation: I'm not really sure how to explain it, but I'm almost 100% sure that's the right answer.
Answer:
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
This function has two roots: -3 and 5. Most likely it is a quadratic (all of which have two roots).
Then f(x) = a(x + 3)(x - 5)
The graph goes through (1. 8): Therefore, y = 8 when x = 1:
f(1) = a(1 + 3)(1 - 5) = 8, or
a(4)(-4) = 8, or
-16a = 8, which leads to a = -1/2.
Thus the quadratic in question is f(x) = (-1/2)(x + 3)(x - 5), or
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
