ASAPPP!!!! HELP I WILL GIVE 100POINTS AND BRAINLIST Question 9 (Essay Worth 10 points)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Luda [366]3 years ago

Answer:

Part A)

The <em>x-</em>intercepts are (-1/4, 0) and (4, 0).

Part B)

The vertex is a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.

The vertex is (1.875, 72.25).

Part C)

We can plot the zeros and the vertex, and connect them with a curve.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function given is:

f(x)=-16x^2+60x+16

Part A)

To find the <em>x-</em>intercepts of the function, set the function equal to 0 and solve for <em>x: </em>

<em />0=-16x^2+60x+16<em />

We can divide both sides by negative four:

0=4x^2-15x-4

Factor:

0=(4x+1)(x-4)

Zero Product Property:

x-4=0\text{ or } 4x+1=0

Solve for each case:

\displaystyle x=-\frac{1}{4}\text{ or }x=4

Hence, our zeros are:

\displaystyle \left(-\frac{1}{4}, 0\right)\text{ and } \left(4, 0\right)

Part B)

Note that the leading coefficient of our function is negative.

So, our function will be concave down.

Hence, our vertex will be the maximum.

The vertex is given by:

\displaystyle \left(-\frac{b}{2a}, f\left(-\frac{b}{2a}\right)\right)

In this case, <em>a </em>= -16, <em>b</em> = 60, and <em>c</em> = 16.

Find the <em>x-</em>coordinate of the vertex:

\displaystyle x=-\frac{(60)}{2(-16)}=\frac{15}{8}=1.875

Substitute this back into the function to find the <em>y-</em>coordinate:

f(1.875)=-16(1.875)^2+60(1.875)+16=72.25

Hence, our vertex is:

(1.875, 72.25)

Part C)

Since we already determined the zeros and the vertex, we can plot the two zeros and the vertex and draw a curve between the three points.

The graph is shown below. Again, to do this by hand, simply plot the three points and connect them with a parabola. If necessary, we can also find the <em>y-</em>intercept.

May I please receive help?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

9.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape is a triangle, the 11 ft is your hypotenuse

You need to use the Pythagorean Theorem!

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (solve for a, the missing length that they ask for)

so --->

a^2 + (6^2) = 11^2

      a^2 + 36 = 121

             ~subtract 36 to the right side~

               a^2 = 85

now find the square root of 85:

               a = 9.21954

        round it to the nearest tenth:

                   a = 9.2

final answer: 9.2 ft

hope this helpsss

Which of the following best describes the relationship between (x-3) and the polynomial x^3+4x^2+2?
Anna71 [15]
This is the concept of polynomials, to get the relationship between the (x-3) and (x^3+4x^2+2) we shall proceed as follows;
we first test if (x-3) is a polynomial;
x-3=0
thus;
x=3
substituting the value of x in the polynomial we get:
(3)^3+4(3)^2+2
=65
since the result is not equal to 0, we conclude that there is no relationship between (x-3) and the polynomial. The answer is B. (X-3) is not a factor

John bought 8 goats at 1040000.He sold these goats and made a profit of 15% on each goat.How much did he sell each goat?​
Ugo [173]

Answer:

149500

Step-by-step explanation:

since there's 8 goats, each goat would be 1040000/8, which is 130000 per goat.

marketing at a 15% increase means the new percentage would be 115%, which could be represented by 1.15.

130000 * 1.15 = 149500 / goat
