Speed of canoe in still water we will denote it CS and water itself has a speed we denote it WS. Downstream will be (CS + WS)*45 = 2, Upstream will be (CS - WS)*90 = 2. Solve the system you will find canoe speed in still water and the water speed as well. 90CS = 90WS +2, CS = WS+ 1/45 put it in the first function 90WS +1 = 2, WS = 1/90 miles per minute, CS =1/30 miles per minute.

Part A: x = -5/4, 3 || (-5/4, 0) (3, 0)

To find the x-intercepts, we need to know where y is equal to 0. So, we will set the function equal to 0 and solve for x.

4x^2 - 7x - 15 = 0

4 x 15 = 60 || -12 x 5 = 60 || -12 + 5 = -7

4x^2 - 12x + 5x - 15 = 0

4x(x - 3) + 5(x - 3) = 0

(4x + 5)(x - 3) = 0

4x + 5 = 0

x = -5/4

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

Part B: minimum, (7/8, -289/16)

The vertex of the graph will be a minimum. This is because the parabola is positive, meaning that it opens to the top.

To find the coordinates of the parabola, we start with the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate can be found using the equation -b/2a.

b = -7

a = 4

x = -(-7) / 2(4) = 7/8

Now that we know the x-value, we can plug it into the function and solve for the y-value.

y = 4(7/8)^2 - 7(7/8) - 15

y = 4(49/64) - 49/8 - 15

y = 196/64 - 392/64 - 960/64

y = -1156/64 = -289/16 = -18 1/16

Part C:

First, start by graphing the vertex. Then, use the x-intercepts and graph those. At this point we should have three points in a sort of triangle shape. If we did it right, each of the x-values will be an equal distance from the vertex. After we have those points graphed, it is time to draw in the parabola. Knowing that the parabola is positive, we draw in a U shape that passes through each of the three points and opens toward the top of the coordinate grid.

Hope this helps!
