Which quadratic function has a wider graph than y=2x^2?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago

Answer:

y = 1/2 x²

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of the first term in a quadratic, in our case here, x², will tell us how the graph stretches. This is akin to the slope within the linear graph. Similar to the slope, the smaller the coefficient value, or value of slope m, the shallower the angle.

When discussing quadratics, the larger the coefficient of our x² term, the steeper, and skinnier the graph. If we want to look for a graph that is wider than y = 2x², then we need to find a graph with a coefficient that is less than 2.

Our only option then is

y = 1/2 x²

Help please, I attached the question. Is it a!? <br> 
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that for a quadratic equation of the form:

0=ax^2+bx+c

The number of solutions it has can be determined using its discriminant:  

\Delta = b^2-4ac

Where:

  • If the discriminant is positive, we have two real solutions.
  • If the discriminant is negative, we have no real solutions.
  • And if the discriminant is zero, we have exactly one solution.

We have the equation:

2x^2+5x-k=0

Thus, <em>a</em> = 2, <em>b</em> = 5, and <em>c</em> = -<em>k</em>.

In order for the equation to have exactly one distinct solution, the discriminant must equal zero. Hence:

b^2-4ac=0

Substitute:

(5)^2-4(2)(-k)=0

Solve for <em>k</em>. Simplify:

25+8k=0

Solve:

\displaystyle k = -\frac{25}{8}

Thus, our answer is indeed A.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-1,3) and (1,11)?
marta [7]

Answer:

y=4x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the slope of the line by using the formula of change and y over change in x. ∆y/∆x OR (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

11-3=8

1--1=2

8/2=4

Let's plug in a y value 3.

3=4*-1+b

b=7

Once you found b rewrite your equation in slope intercept form.

y=4x+7

You can check this equation by plugging in the unused coordinate (1,11) and find it balances.
