Marsha wants to determine the vertex of the quadratic function f(x) = x2 – x + 2. What is the function’s vertex?

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

$Vertex = (\frac{1}{2},\frac{7}{4})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = x^2 - x +2$

Required

The vertex

We have:

$f(x) = x^2 - x +2$

First, we express the equation as:

$f(x) = a(x - h)^2 +k$

Where

$Vertex = (h,k)$

So, we have:

$f(x) = x^2 - x +2$

--------------------------------------------

Take the coefficient of x: -1

Divide by 2: (-1/2)

Square: (-1/2)^2

Add and subtract this to the equation

--------------------------------------------

$f(x) = x^2 - x +2$

$f(x) = x^2 - x + (-\frac{1}{2})^2+2 -(-\frac{1}{2})^2$

$f(x) = x^2 - x + \frac{1}{4}+2 -\frac{1}{4}$

Expand

$f(x) = x^2 - \frac{1}{2}x- \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{1}{4}+2 -\frac{1}{4}$

Factorize

$f(x) = x(x - \frac{1}{2})- \frac{1}{2}(x - \frac{1}{2})+2 -\frac{1}{4}$

Factor out x - 1/2

$f(x) = (x - \frac{1}{2})(x - \frac{1}{2})+2 -\frac{1}{4}$

$f(x) = (x - \frac{1}{2})^2+2 -\frac{1}{4}$

$f(x) = (x - \frac{1}{2})^2+ \frac{8 -1 }{4}$

$f(x) = (x - \frac{1}{2})^2+ \frac{7}{4}$

Compare to: $f(x) = a(x - h)^2 +k$

$h = \frac{1}{2}$

$k = \frac{7}{4}$

Hence:

$Vertex = (\frac{1}{2},\frac{7}{4})$

47 decreased by nine times d what's the mathematical expression

Lilit [14]

Nine times d = 9*d = 9d

47 decreased by 9d = 47 - 9d

= 47 - 9d.

A wire is stretched from the ground to the top of an antenna tower. The wire is 15 feet long. The height of the tower is 3 feet

Mariana [72]

The distance d is 9 ft and the height is 12ft.

<h3>How to find the distance and the height?</h3>

Here we can model the situation with a right triangle, where the length of the wire is the hypotenuse.

The height is one cathetus and the distance is the other catheti.

Let's define:

h = height
d = distance.
hypotenuse = 15ft

We know that the height of the tower is 3 ft larger than the distance, then:

h = d + 3ft

Now we can use the Pythagorean theorem, it says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Then:

$d^2 + (d + 3ft)^2 = (15ft)^2$

Now we can solve this equation for d:

$d^2 + d^2 + 6ft*d + 9ft^2 = (15ft)^2\\\\2d^2 + 6ft*d - 216 ft^2 = 0\\\\d^2 + 3ft*d - 108ft^2 = 0$

Then the solutions are:

$d = \frac{-3ft \pm \sqrt{(3ft)^2 - 4*(-108ft^2)} }{2} \\\\d = \frac{-3ft \pm 21ft }{2}$

We only take the positive solution:

d = (-3ft + 21ft)/2 = 9ft

And the height is 3 ft more than that, so:

h = 9ft + 3ft = 12ft

The distance d is 9 ft and the height is 12ft.

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint between H(3, 9) and J(9, -2).

TiliK225 [7]

Hello!

The midpoint formula is basically an average of x and y.

It is also written as: $(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}} {2},\frac{y_{1}+ y_{2}} {2})$ .

With the formula above, we can substitute the given points into the equation, and simplify.

$(\frac{3 +9}{2}, \frac{9+(-2)}{2}) = (\frac{12}{2}, \frac{7}{2}) = (6, 3.5)$

Therefore, the midpoint between points H and J is choice D, (6, 3.5).
