Natural numbers are all whole, positive numbers. Like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction, though they dont have to be a fraction.
Rational numbers are <u>sometimes </u>natural numbers.
With the given data, the first step to take is to use MS excel to plot the data then determine the trendline in which the equation's r2 value is closest to 1. From the plot obtained from Excel, the plot is a second degree polynomial and not an exponential function. the answer hence is no.
Think of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is Parenthesis, Exponets, Multiplication, Division, Add, and Subtract. We don't have any Parenthesis, we don't have any Exponets, we do have multiplication: 34•8. I think it's A. 34•8
The vertex of the given parabola is the point (3, 25).
<h3>
How to get the vertex of the parabola?</h3>
If the parabola has roots x₁ and x₂, then the vertex of the parabola is at:
xₙ = (x₁ + x₂)/2
Here the parabola is:
y = (-2 - x)*(x - 8)
We can rewrite that to:
y = -(x + 2)*(x - 8)
Then the two roots are:
x = -2 and x = 8
Then the vertex is at:
xₙ = (8 - 2)/2 = 6/2 = 3
To get the y-value of the vertex, we evaluate the equation in x = 3:
y = -(3+ 2)*(3 - 8) = -5*(-5) = 25
The vertex is (3, 25).
