It’s -4 and it’s -5.........
Answer: This parabola has 0.3875 x-intercepts,
<span>representing the times when the dolphin's height above water is </span>
0 feet.
The x-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the x-axis, which is when the value is y=0.
The calculation for y=0 would be
<span>Y = -16x2 + 32x - 10
</span><span>0 = -16x2 + 32x - 10
</span>-8x2 + 16x - 5=0
-b +-√(b^2-4ac) /2a=
-16 +-√(16^2-4(-8)(-5)) /2(-8) =
-16+- √(256-160/ -16 =
-16+- √(96/ -16 =
-16+- 9.8/ -16 =
x1= 0.3875
x2= -1.6125
To find the y intercept you must substitute 0 into x.
F(x) = (-3x0) - (6x0) - 5
F(x) = -5
To find the axis of symmetry and vertex we use the formula -b/2a to find the x coordinate
x = 6/(-3x2)
x = 6/-6
x = -1
Now we need to find the y coordinate so we sub -1 into x.
F(x) = (-3x-1) - (6x-1) - 5
F(x) = 3 + 6 - 5
F(x) = 4
The axis of symmetry and vertex are (-1,4) and the y coordinate is -5. Hope this helps.
As we know that cotx= 1/tanx
cot36° = 1/tan36°
=>cot36°= 1/0.726543
=>so cot 36°= 1.376382
So correct answer is option D.
