A. x intercepts are where the graph hits the x axis or where f(x)=0
0=2x^2-x-10
solve
hmm
we can use the ac method
multiply 2 and -10 to get -20
what 2 numbers muliply to get -20 and add to get -1 (the coefint of the x term)
-5 and 4
split the midd into that
0=2x^2+4x-5x-10
group
0=(2x^2+4x)+(-5x-10)
factor
0=2x(x+2)-5(x+2)
undistribute
0=(x+2)(2x-5)
set each to 0
0=x+2
0=-2
0=2x-5
5=2x
5/2=x
x intercepts are at x=-2 and 5/2 or the points (-2,0) and (5/2,0)
B. ok, so for f(x)=ax^2+bx+c
if a>0, then the parabola opens up and the vertex is a minimum
if a<0 then the parabola opens down and the vertex is a max
f(x)=2x^2-x-10
2>0
opoens up
vertex is minimum
ok, the vertex
the x value of the vertex in f(x)=ax^2+bx+c= is -b/(2a)
the y value of the vertex is f(-b/(2a)) so
given
f(x)=2x^2-x-10
a=2
b=-1
-b/2a=-(-1)/(2*2)=1/4
f(1/4)=2(1/4)^2-(1/4)-10
f(1/4)=2(1/16)-1/4-10
f(1/4)=1/8-1/4-10
f(1/4)=1/8-2/8-80/8
f(1/4)=-81/8
so the vertex is (1/4,-81/8) or (0.25,-10.125)
C. graph the x intercepts and the vertex
the vertex is min and the graph goes through the x intercepts
It doesn’t matter how many times she rolls the dice. she will have a 1/6 chance is rolling the number 4, which is a 16.6% chance
Answer:
.2
Step-by-step explanation:
first you add all the pencils up which is 12 next take the probably of taking out one of each pencil .4 for green .2 for black and .6 for yellow next you divide the probably for pulling 1 green bye 2 since your pulling out 2
The answer is: A
Cause I had this test before and I aced it ;)
Answer:
44ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Break the shape into 3 rectangles, two 3 by 2's and one 4 by 8. (Get 4 by subtracting 3 from 7 for the left and right most side)
3 x 2 = 6 ft^2
since there's two rectangles you end up 6 + 6 so you get 12 ft^2
then 4 x 8 = 32 ft^2
add 32 and 12, get 44 ft^2
