Answer:

  • y = 2x² - 5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, imagine the standard form, which is:

f(x) = ax² + bx + c = y

Using the table, and adding that y at the end, we can plug in and write out the following equations. (<em>Writing it out is important</em>):

f(-1) = a(-1)² + b(-1) + c = 14

f(0) = a(0)² + b(0) + c = 7

f(1) = a(1)² + b(1) + c = 4

f(2) = a(2)² + b(2) + c = 5

Now if this doesn't look familiar, it's actually a <u>systems of equations</u> using the a, b, and c elements as your three variables! If you simplify the equations:

f(-1) = a - b + c = 14

f(0) = c = 7

f(1) = a + b + c = 4

f(2) = 4a + 2b + c = 5

Something unique just happened. We have already defined what ' c ' is!

<u><em>c = 7</em></u>

Setting that aside, if you remove the f(x) portion of the equations, you're left with:

a - b + c = 14

a + b + c = 4

4a + 2b + c = 5

Using the two upper equations, if we add them together (you can do that as it doesn't change the values of the variables) you get:

2a + 2c = 18

Note: the ' b ' variables cancelled out in the addition [ b +  (-b) ]

If you further simplify the equation:

a + c = 9

Awesome. Now we already know that <u>c = 7</u>, so if you plug that into the equation:

a + 7 = 9

Solve for a. So then a = 2

Now that we know the following:

a = 2

c = 7

We can then use the equation:

a + b + c = 4

And solve for b!

2 + b + 7 = 4

Simplify.

b + 9 = 4

Simplify.

b = -5

Now at this point, since you know what a, b and c are, you can write the equation!

f(x) = 2x² - 5x + 7

You can confirm your work by putting any of the x values in the table through!

A new price of an item is $39.32. The percent increase was 16%. What was the original price?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

let x =the original price

then 116x/100=$39.32

116x=100×39.32

116x=3932

divide both sides by 116

116x/116=3932/116

x=33.89655

(2dp)

x=33.90

-4(4-x)=4/5(x+16) I need help
Dominik [7]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

−4(4−x)=4/5(x+16)

(−4)(4)+(−4)(−x)=(4/5)(x)+(4/5)(16)(Distribute)

−16+4x=4/5x+64/5

4x−16=4/5x+64/5

4x−16−4/5x=4/5x+64/5−4/5x

16/5x−16=64/5

16/5x−16+16=64/5+16

16/5x=144/5

(5/16)*(16/5x)=(5/16)*(144/5)

x=9

hopfully this helps answer: x=9
