Given:

The function is:

f(x)=-(x+5)(x+1)

To find:

The range of the function.

Solution:

We have,

f(x)=-(x+5)(x+1)

It can be written as:

f(x)=-(x^2+x+5x+5)

f(x)=-(x^2+6x+5)

Add and subtract square of half of coefficient of x, i.e., \left(\dfrac{6}{2}\right)^2=9.

f(x)=-(x^2+6x+9-9+5)

f(x)=-(x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2-4)

f(x)=-(x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2)+4

f(x)=-(x+3)^2+4

On comparing this equation with f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, we get

a=-1, it means the graph of the function is a downward parabola and the vertex is the point of maxima.

h=-3

k=4

The vertex of the function is (-3,4). So, the value of the function cannot be greater than 4.

Therefore, the range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 4.

Note: All options are incorrect.

James has $5.00 more than three times what Catherine has. Together they have $41.00. How much does each student have?
Tpy6a [65]
Hey.

acc'g to the conditions :

Let Catherine has x
and James has 5 + 3x

Then,

5 + 4x = 41 \\ \\ \implies 4x +5 -5 = 41-5 \\ \\ \implies 4x = 36 \\ \\ \implies x= \dfrac{36}{4} \\ \\ \implies x = 9

Hence

• Catherine has = x = $9,
• and James has = 5 +3x = 5 + 3(9) = $32

Thanks.

How can you check to see if a value of x is a zero of the polynomial
Mila [183]

Answer:

  substitute that value for x in the polynomial and see if it evaluates to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

A "zero" of a polynomial is a value of the polynomial's variable that make the expression become zero when it is evaluated. As an almost trivial example, consider the polynomial x-3. The value x = 3 is a zero because substituting that value for x makes the expression evaluate as zero.

  3 -3 = 0

___

Evaluating polynomials can be done different ways. Straight substitution for the variable is one way. Using synthetic division by x-a (where "a" is the value of interest) is another way. This latter method is completely equivalent to rewriting the polynomial to Horner form for evaluation.

__

In the attachment, Horner Form is shown at the bottom.
