What is the value of the function when x = 4?<br><br> y = 3x + 7

adelina 88 [10]

2x - 3y = 7 and -3x + y = 7..multiply Equation 2 by THREE and add to Equation 1
-9x + 3y = 21...........................watch the y's disappear
-7x........ = 28
x = -4
substitute -4 instead of x in either of the ORIGINAL equations

2x - 3y = 7
2(-4) - 3y = 7
-8 -3y = 7..........add 8 to both sides
-3y = 15
y = -5

im not sure

Find the equation, (f(x) = a(x - h)2 + k), for a parabola containing point (2, -1) and having (4, -3) as a vertex. What is the s

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x^2-4x+5$

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola is written in the form

$f(x)=a((x-h)^2+k)$ (1)

where:

$h$ is the x-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola

$ak$ is the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola

$a$ is a scale factor

For the parabola in the problem, we know that the vertex has coordinates (4,-3), so we have:

$h=4$ (2)

$ak=-3$

From this last equation, we get that $a=\frac{-3}{k}$ (3)

Substituting (2) and (3) into (1) we get the new expression:

$f(x)=-\frac{3}{k}((x-4)^2+k) = -\frac{3}{k}(x-4)^2 -3$ (4)

We also know that the parabola contains the point (2,-1), so we can substitute

x = 2

f(x) = -1

Into eq.(4) and find the value of k:

$-1=-\frac{3}{k}(2-4)^2-3\\-1=-\frac{3}{k}\cdot 4 -3\\2=-\frac{12}{k}\\k=-\frac{12}{2}=-6$

So we also get:

$a=-\frac{3}{k}=-\frac{3}{-6}=\frac{1}{2}$

So the equation of the parabola is:

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2}((x-4)^2 -6)$ (5)

Now we want to rewrite it in the standard form, i.e. in the form

$f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$

To do that, we simply rewrite (5) expliciting the various terms, we find:

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2}((x^2-8x+16)-6)=\frac{1}{2}(x^2-8x+10)=\frac{1}{2}x^2-4x+5$

Answer:

total pay in 4 weeks is $ 1960.00

$ 12.25 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

5 x 165= $ 825

6 x 110= $ 660

5 x 95= $ 475

____________

$ 1960.00 dollars divided by 160 = 12.25

1960/ 160= 12.25

A company is constructing an open-top, square-based, rectangular metal tank that will have a volume of 49 cubic feet. What dime

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

b = 4.6 ft

h = 2.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the tank is given by:

$b^2*h=49$

Where 'b' is the length of the each side of the square base, and 'h' is the height of the tank.

The surface area can be written as:

$A=b^2+4bh\\A=b^2+4b*({\frac{49}{b^2}})\\A=b^2+\frac{196}{b}$

The value of b for which the derivate of the expression above is zero is the value that yields the minimum surface area:

$\frac{dA}{db} =0=2b-\frac{196}{b^2}\\2b^3=196\\b=4.61\ ft$

The value of h is then:

$h=\frac{49}{4.61^2}\\h=2.31\ ft$

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the dimensions are b = 4.6 ft and h = 2.3 ft.
