Answer:
- 8) 4 + 2q²/p² - 4r/p + r²/p²
- 9) (3/4, -9/4)
- 10) (3/8, 41/16)
Step-by-step explanation:
8. ============
Given
- α and β are roots of px² + qx + r = 0
The sum of the roots is α + β = -q/p, the product of then roots αβ = r/p
- (2 + α²)(2 + β²) =
- 4 + 2(α² + β²) + (αβ)² =
- 4 + 2((α + β)² -2αβ) + (αβ)² =
- 4 + 2((-q/p)² - 2r/p) + (r/p)² =
- 4 + 2q²/p² - 4r/p + r²/p²
------------------------------
9. ============
<u>Given function</u>
The minimum point is reached at vertex
<u>The vertex is:</u>
- x = -b/2a
- x = -(-3)/2*2 = 3/4
<u>The corresponding y-coordinate is:</u>
- y = 2(3/4)² - 3(3/4) - 1 = 9/8 - 9/4 - 1 = 1/8(9 - 18 - 9) = - 18/8 = - 9/4
<u>So the point is: </u>

10. ============
<u>Given function</u>
The maximum is reached at vertex
<u>The vertex is:</u>
- x = -b/2a
- x = -(-3)/2(-4) = -3/8
<u>The corresponding y-coordinate is:</u>
- y = 2 - 3(-3/8) -4(-3/8)² = 2 + 9/8 - 9/16 = 1/16(32 + 18 - 9) = 41/16
<u>So the maximum point is:</u>
Number of dogs in the shelter are 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Given that total animals = 108 and number of ferrets = 1/3 of 108. Find number of ferrets in the shelter.
Number of ferrets = 1/3 of 108 = 1/3 × 108 = 36
Step 2:
Given that of the remaining animals, number of cats = 5/6. Find the remaining animals and the number of cats.
Remaining number of animals = 108 - 36 = 72
Number of cats = 5/6 of 72 = 5/6 × 72 = 60
Step 3:
Find number of dogs in the shelter.
Number of dogs = 108 - (36 + 60) = 108 - 96 = 12
