Imagine cutting up a pizza into 5 slices

If you take 2 slices, then you take 2 out of the 5, so the fractional amount you took is 2/5 of the full pizza.

If your friend takes 3 slices, then she or he takes 3/5 of the full pizza

Adding the two fractional amounts should get us back to 1 full pizza, which is why 2/5+3/5 = 1.

-----------

We could say this:

2/5 + 3/5 = (2+3)/5 = 5/5 = 1

Dividing any number over itself, as long it's not zero, always leads to 1.

So that's why 5/5 = 1.

3. A family is tracking its spending habits. Over the past year, the grocery bill has ranged from $110 to $170. Suppose you were
ra1l [238]
You would plot them by month, 170-110= 60 dollar increase. 60 divided by 12 ( for each month) leaves a 5 dollar increase each month. Your coordinates would be 0,110 1,115 2,120 3,125
x would be month
y would be money

What can you say about the y-values of the two functions f(x)=-5^x +2 and g(x)=-5x^2+2?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

B) The maximum y-value of f(x) approaches 2

C) g(x) has the largest possible y-value

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-5^x+2

f(x) is an exponential function.

Lim x→∞ f(x) = Lim x→∞ (-5^x+2) = -5^(∞)+2 = -∞+2→ Lim x→∞ f(x) = -∞

Lim x→ -∞ f(x) = Lim x→ -∞ (-5^x+2) = -5^(-∞)+2 = -1/5^∞+2 = -1/∞+2 = 0+2→

Lim x→ -∞ f(x) = 2

Then the maximun y-value of f(x) approaches 2


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

g(x) is a quadratic function. The graph is a parabola

g(x)=ax^2+bx+c

a=-5<0, the parabola opens downward and has a maximum value at

x=-b/(2a)

b=0

c=2

x=-0/2(-5)

x=0/10

x=0

The maximum value is at x=0:

g(0)=-5(0)^2+2=-5(0)+2=0+2→g(0)=2

The maximum value of g(x) is 2

How do I solve this? help please! xx
Anna35 [415]
This graph is composed of four straight line segments.  You'll need to determine the slope, y-intercept and domain for each of them.   Look at the first segment, the one on the extreme left.  Verify yourself that the slope of this line segment is 1 and that the y-intercept would be 0 if you were to extend this segment all the way to the y-axis.  Thus, the rule (formula, equation) for this line segment would be f(x)=1x+0, or just f(x)=x, for (-3,-1).  Use a similar approach to write rules for the remaining three line segments.

Present your answer like this:
               x, (-3,-1)
f(x) =      -1, (-1,0)
               one more here

To solve the equation for x by completing the square what equation is equivalent to x^2-x-2=0
GuDViN [60]
So to complete the square in
ax^2+bx+c=d form

make sure a=1
subtract c from both sides
take 1/2 of b and square it
add that to both sides
factor perfect square

1x^2-1x-2=0
a=1
move c to other side
add 2 to oth sides
x^2-1x=2
take 1/2 of b and square it
1/2 of -1=-1/2
squaer it
1/4
add that to both sides
x^2-1x+1/4=2+1/4
factor left side
(x-1/2)=2+1/4

first blank is 1/2

2+1/4=8/4+1/4=9/4

blanks are
1/2 and 9/4
