Answer: 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-
so, this is a quadratic equation, meaning two solutions, and we have a factored form of it, meaning you can get the solutions by simply zeroing out the f(x).
so the zeros/solutions are at x = 3 and x = -11, now, bearing in mind the vertex will be half-way between those two, checking the number line, that midpoint will be at x = -4, so the vertex is right there, well, what's f(x) when x = -4?
Step-by-step explanation:
2πrh+2πr²=surface area
2π(3)(6)+2π(3²)
36π+18π
54π
1/2 - 1/4x ≥ -1/4
Combine 1/4x to get x/4:
1/2 - x/4 ≥ -1/4
Subtract 1/2 from both sides:
-x/4 ≥ -1/4 - 1/2
Simplify:
-x/4 ≥ -3/4
Multiply both sides by 4:
-x ≥ -3/4 * 4
-x ≥ -3
Multiply each side by -1 ( and since you are multiplying by -1, you also need to reverse the inequality sign)
Answer: x ≤ 3
