The first picture would be choice answer c because the number of x's represent how many birds wings are this size. The number on the tic mark represents the size of the wing span. So you would take the number of x's times the tic mark represented under it. There are 3 birds with 3 1/8 wingspan so it wold be 3 1/8 *3. Hoped this helps for the first one!
I can’t see it sorry maybe it’s my device
Answer:
<h3>
f(x) = - 3(x + 8)² + 2</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k - the vertex form of the quadratic function with vertex (h, k)
the<u> axis of symmetry</u> at<u> x = -8</u> means h = -8
the <u>maximum height of 2</u> means k = 2
So:
f(x) = a(x - (-8))² + 2
f(x) = a(x + 8)² + 2 - the vertex form of the quadratic function with vertex (-8, 2)
The parabola passing through the point (-7, -1) means that if x = -7 then f(x) = -1
so:
-1 = a(-7 + 8)² + 2
-1 -2 = a(1)² + 2 -2
-3 = a
Threfore:
The vertex form of the parabola which has an axis of symmetry at x = -8, a maximum height of 2, and passes through the point (-7, -1) is:
<u>f(x) = -3(x + 8)² + 2</u>
Set ? as x, and cross-multiply.
so x^2= 36
x = 6 or x = -6
