Answer:

The y value of a point where a vertical line intersects a graph represents an output for that input x value. If we can draw any vertical line that intersects a graph more than once, then the graph does not define a function because that x value has more than one output.

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 6x = −18? x = 3 − 3i x = −3 + 3i x = −6 + 3i x = 6 − 3i

Marina86 [1]

Step 1 ) Move all terms right side of the equation.

$\displaystyle\ x^{2} + 6x = -18$

$\displaystyle\ x^{2} + 6x + 18 = -18 + 18$

$\displaystyle\ x^{2} +6x + 18 = 0$

Step 2 ) Apply quadratic formula. (Note: There are 2 solutions)

$\displaystyle\ x^{2} +6x + 18 = 0$

$\displaystyle\ x = \frac{-b\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}, \displaystyle\ x = \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

$\displaystyle\ x = \frac{-6+\sqrt{6^{2}-4 * 18}}{2} , \displaystyle\ x = \frac{-6-\sqrt{6^{2}-4*18}}{2}$

$\displaystyle\ x = \frac{-6+6i}{2}$ ,

$\displaystyle\ x = \frac{-6-6i}{2}$

Step 3 ) Simplify.

$\displaystyle\ x = \frac{-6+6i}{2}$ ,

$\displaystyle\ x = \frac{-6-6i}{2}$

$\displaystyle\ x = -3+ 3i$ ,

$\displaystyle\ x = -3 - 3i$

Since the options only provide one of the answer we found, the answer is...

$\displaystyle\ x = -3 - 3i$

6. What is the sum of the solutions?

vlada-n [284]

x * x = x^2

x * .7 = .7x

-6 * x = -6x

-6 * .7 = -4.2

x^2 + .7x - 6x -4.2

x^2 - 5.3 - 4.2

x = 6

before tomorrow can I have a quick answer and maybe an explanation on how to answer these kinds of questions overall? need some

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a) maximum; the parabola opens downward

b) positive; it must lie above the x-axis

c) x = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts of a function are the points where the graph of the function crosses the x-axis. The y-values there are zero.

The "differences" of a function are related to the average slope between adjacent points. Second differences are related to the rate of change of the slope of the function. When <em>second differences are negative</em>, as here, the slope of the quadratic function is decreasing, becoming more negative. We say the <em>curvature</em> of the function is <em>negatve</em>, and that it <em>opens downward</em>.

If the graph of the parabola opens downward, and it crosses the x-axis, it must have a <em>maximum</em> that is a <em>positive value of y</em>.

The graph of a parabola is symmetrical about its vertex. That means points on the same horizontal line are the same distance from the line of symmetry, which must go through the vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex will be the x-coordinate of the midpoint between the two x-intercepts:

x = (-2 +5)/2 = 3/2

The x-coordinate of the vertex is x = 1.5.

______

<em>Additional comment</em>

The attachment shows a table with three evenly-spaced points on the curve. The calculations show first differences (d1) and second differences (d2). You can see that the sign of the second diffference is negative, in agreement with the given conditions.
