Given:

The graph of a quadratic function passes through the points (5,31) (3,11) (0,11).

To find:

The equation of the quadratic function.

Solution:

A quadratic function is defined as:

y=ax^2+bx+c            ...(i)

It is passes through the point (0,11). So, substitute x=0,y=11 in (i).

11=a(0)^2+b(0)+c

11=c

Putting c=11 in (i), we get

y=ax^2+bx+11               ...(ii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (5,31). So, substitute x=5,y=31 in (ii).

31=a(5)^2+b(5)+11

31-11=a(25)+5b

20=25a+5b

Divide both sides by 5.

4=5a+b                  ...(iii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (3,11). So, substitute x=3,y=11 in (ii).

11=a(3)^2+b(3)+11

11-11=a(9)+3b

0=9a+3b

Divide both sides by 3.

0=3a+b                 ...(iv)

Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get

4-0=5a+b-3a-b

4=2a

\dfrac{4}{2}=a

2=a

Putting a=2 in (iv), we get

0=3(2)+b

0=6+b

-6=b

Putting a=2,b=-6 in (ii), we get

y=(2)x^2+(-6)x+11

y=2x^2-6x+11

Therefore, the required quadratic equation is y=2x^2-6x+11.

4 days I have 140 copies of a book, 9 days I only have 50 left. Write an equation where c(t)=my+b where c is number of copies st
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

c(t)=-18t+212.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 4 days I have 140 copies of a book, 9 days I only have 50 left. We are asked to write an equation c(t)=my+b, where c is number of copies still on hand and t days being available.

We have two points on line (4,140) and (9,50). Now, we will use these points to find slope as:

m=\frac{140-50}{4-9}

m=\frac{90}{-5}

m=-18

Now, we will use point-slope form of equation y-y_1=m(x-x_1) and substitute m=-18 and coordinates of point (9,50) as:

y-50=-18(x-9)

y-50=-18x+162

y-50+50=-18x+162+50

y=-18x+212

Therefore, our required equation would be c(t)=-18t+212.

hey, i have this question for algebra nation and i have no clue how to work this problem out... can you please help me?
irina1246 [14]
In algebra the notation is basically just a number, for example, 10, and we take it to the 10th power, you just take the decimal at the end of the 10 and move it 10 spaces to the right, if the number is negative you will move the decimal to the left 10 spaces, the 10th power is a variable and is different with every question
