Given:

The function is:

f(x)=-2x^2+7x+4

To find:

Express the quadratic equation in the form of f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, then state the minimum or maximum value,axis of symmetry and minimum or maximum point.

Solution:

The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k              ...(i)

Where, a is a constant, (h,k) is the vertex and x=h is the axis of symmetry.

We have,

f(x)=-2x^2+7x+4

It can be written as:

f(x)=-2\left(x^2-3.5x\right)+4

Adding and subtracting square of half of coefficient of x inside the parenthesis, we get

f(x)=-2\left(x^2-3.5x+(\dfrac{3.5}{2})^2-(\dfrac{3.5}{2})^2\right)+4

f(x)=-2\left(x^2-3.5x+(1.75)^2\right)-2\left(-(1.75)^2\right)+4

f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+2(3.0625)+4

f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+6.125+4

f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+10.125                ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

a=-2,h=1.75,k=10.125

Here, a is negative, the given function represents a downward parabola and its vertex is the point of maxima.

Maximum value = 10.125

Axis of symmetry : x=1.75

Maximum point = (1.75,10.125)

Therefore, the vertex form of the given function is f(x)=-2\left(x-1.75\right)^2+10.125, the maximum value is 10.125, the axis of symmetry is x=1.75 and the maximum point is (1.75,10.125).

An item is sold for £305. If this includes a mark up of 7%. Find the buying in price
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Let the original price be 'x'

7/100 * x + x = 305

(7x+100x)/100 = 305

107x = 305 * 100

107x= 30500

x= 30500/107

x= 285.04

Therefore, the original buying price is £ 285.04

Hope you understood......
