Answer:
x = 2, and 6
x = 2 , 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic function to analyze is:
In order to find where the corresponding parabola intercepts the x axis, we set it equal to zero (y = 0):
This equation is easy to solve by factoring. We look for a air of integer numbers whose product equals the constant term "12", and whose combinig renders the coefficient of the middle term of the trinomial "-8".
The two such numbers are "-2" and "-6". We use them to split the middle term, and then solve by factoring by grouping:
For the product of two factors to render zero, we need either one to be a zero.This means that (x-2)=0 (that is x = 2), or (x-6)=0 (that is x = 6).
So, there are two x-intercepts: x= 2, and 6
<h3>Answer: (2, 2)</h3>
==============================================
Explanation:
The phrasing "translated along <4,6>" is another way of saying "shift 4 to the right, shift 6 up"
In general, "translated along <m,n>" is the same as writing . If m is positive, then we shift m units to the right. If m is negative, then we shift to the left. The same story happens with the n, but we focus on the y coordinate.
-------------
With all that in mind, starting at F(-5,-9) and translating along <4,6> has us arrive at (-1, -3). Add 4 to the x coordinate and add 6 to the y coordinate.
We can say
Showing that (-5,-9) moves to (-1,-3)
This is after the first translation, but there's a second translation.
We'll apply the same idea, but different numbers this time
So (-1,-3) moves to (2,2)
Overall we have
- (-5,-9) move to (-1,-3) after the first translation
- (-1,-3) move to (2,2) after the second translation
Therefore, the original point ends up at (2,2) which is the final answer
--------------
Extra info:
A nice shortcut is that the vectors <4,6> and <3,5> can be added to get <4+3,6+5> = <7,11>. So overall, we're shifting 7 units to the right and 11 units up when we combine the two translation vectors.
