Answer:
slope=3
Step-by-step explanation:
First multiply (3x-7) and (2x+5)
i already did the multiplication so i am writing the answer
(3x-7)(2x+5)
6x^2+x-35
a is 6
b is 1
c is -35
if you want me to share how i did the multiplication then do let me know
Question 21
Let's complete the square
y = 3x^2 + 6x + 5
y-5 = 3x^2 + 6x
y - 5 = 3(x^2 + 2x)
y - 5 = 3(x^2 + 2x + 1 - 1)
y - 5 = 3(x^2+2x+1) - 3
y - 5 = 3(x+1)^2 - 3
y = 3(x+1)^2 - 3 + 5
y = 3(x+1)^2 + 2
Answer: Choice D
============================================
Question 22
Through trial and error you should find that choice D is the answer
Basically you plug in each of the given answer choices and see which results in a true statement.
For instance, with choice A we have
y < -4(x+1)^2 - 3
-7 < -4(0+1)^2 - 3
-7 < -7
which is false, so we eliminate choice A
Choice D is the answer because
y < -4(x+1)^2 - 3
-9 < -4(-2+1)^2 - 3
-9 < -7
which is true since -9 is to the left of -7 on the number line.
============================================
Question 25
Answer: Choice B
Explanation:
The quantity (x-4)^2 is always positive regardless of what you pick for x. This is because we are squaring the (x-4). Squaring a negative leads to a positive. Eg: (-4)^2 = 16
Adding on a positive to (x-4)^2 makes the result even more positive. Therefore (x-4)^2 + 1 > 0 is true for any real number x.
Visually this means all solutions of y > (x-4)^2 + 1 reside in quadrants 1 and 2, which are above the x axis.
Here is the problem and amswer 9/3=3 3/2= 1.5
