A because that is where they cross
Answer:
y = -2x^2(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>Preliminary Remark</u></em>
If a cubic is tangent to the x axis at 0,0
Then the equation must be related to y = a*x^2(x - h)
<em><u>(3,0)</u></em>
If the cubic goes through the point (3,0), then the equation will become
0 = a*3^2(3 - h)
0 = 9a (3 - h)
0 = 27a - 9ah
from which h = 3
<em><u>From the second point, we get</u></em>
4 = ax^2(x - 3)
4 = a(1)^2(1 - 3)
4 = a(-2)
a = 4 / - 2
a = -2
<em><u>Answer</u></em>
y = -2x^2(x - 3)
2867.5 is bigger
Even though they both show 5 numbers, the second one has only one decimal place versus 2 on the first
If you ignore the decimal, your left with
290 vs 2867
2867 is much bigger than 290 so this is the answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x +2y = 13 -----------------(i)
x + 2y = 7 ----------------(ii)
Multiply the equation (ii) by (-1) and then add.
(i) 3x + 2y = 13
(ii)*(-1) <u>-x - 2y = -7 </u> {Now, add and y will be eliminated}
2x = 6
x = 6/2
x = 3
Plug in x = 3 in equation (i)
3*3 + 2y = 13
9 + 2y = 13
2y= 13 - 9
2y = 4
y = 4/2
y = 2
