Answer:

1) 2 nonreal complex roots

2) 1 Real Solution

3) 16

4) Reflected, narrower by a factor of 2/5, slides right 4 units and slides up 6 (units)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The graph does not intercept the x-axis, therefore, there are no real solutions at the point y = 0

We get;

y = a·x² + b·x + c

At y = 6, x = -2

Therefore;

6 = a·(-2)² - 2·b + c = 4·a - 2·b + c

6 = 4·a - 2·b + c...(1)

At y = 8, x = 0

8 = a·(0)² + b·0 + c

∴ c = 8...(2)

Similarly, we have;

At y = 8, x = -4

8 = a·(-4)² - 4·b + c = 16·a - 4·b + 8

16·a - 4·b = 0

∴ b = 16·a/4 = 4·a

b = 4·a...(3)

From equation (1), (2) and (3), we have;

6 = 4·a - 2·b + c

∴ 6 = b - 2·b + 8 = -b + 8

6 - 8 = -b

∴ -b = -2

b = 2

b = 4·a

∴ a = b/4 = 2/4 = 1/2

The equation is therefor;

y = (1/2)·x² + 2·x + 8

Solving we get;

x = (-2 ± √(2² - 4 × (1/2) × 8))/(2 × (1/2))

x =( -2 ± √(-12))/1 = -2 ± √(-12)

Therefore, we have;

2 nonreal complex roots

2) Give that the graph of the function touches the x-axis once, we have;

1 Real Solution

3) The given function is f(x) = 2·x² + 8·x + 6

The general form of the quadratic function is f(x) = a·x² + b·x + c

Comparing, we have;

a = 2, b = 8, c = 6

The discriminant of the function, D = b² - 4·a·c, therefore, for the function, we have;

D = 8² - 4 × 2 × 6 = 16

The discriminant of the function, D = 16

4.) The given function is g(x) = (-2/5)·(x - 4)² + 6

The parent function of a quadratic equation is y = x²

A vertical translation is given by the following equation;

y = f(x) + b

A horizontal to the right by 'a' translation is given by an equation of the form; y = f(x - a)

A vertical reflection is given by an equation of the form; y = -f(x) = -x²

A narrowing is given by an equation of the form; y = b·f(x), where b < 1

Therefore, the transformations of g(x) from the parent function are;

g(x) is a reflection of the parent function, with the graph of g(x) being narrower by 2/5 than the graph of the parent function. The graph of g(x) is shifted right by 4 units and is then slides up by 6 units.

Juliette [100K]

Answer: 5.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, The graph of the functionP(x) = -0.74^2 + 22x + 75 . The function models the profits, P, in thousands of dollars for a tech company to manufacture a calculator, where x is the number of calculators produced, in thousands.

In graph , On axis → number of calculators produced

On y-axis →  profit made in thousands of dollars.

From the graph, the curve goes for y > 175 from x = 5.6 to x= 24.13 ( approx)

So, the reasonable constraints for the model 5.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.13.

So, If the company wants to keep its profits at or above $175,000, reasonable constraints for the model 5.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.13.

Which of these choices show a pair of equivalent expressions? A.7^5/7 and (√ 7)^5 B.6^7/2 and (√ 6)^7 C.(4√ 81)^7 and 81^7/4 D.5
OverLord2011 [107]
We will use the following law of indices (or 'index law') to check each pair of expression

x^{ \frac{m}{n}} = ( \sqrt[n]{x} )^{m}

With fractional power, the denominator is the root and the numerator is the power of the term. When the denominator is 2, we usually only write the normal square symbol (√). Denominator other than 2, we usually write the value of the root, for example, the cubic root ∛

Option A - Incorrect
7^{ \frac{5}{7}} should equal to ( \sqrt[7]{7} )^{5}

Option B - Correct
6^{ \frac{7}{2} } does equal to ( \sqrt{6}) ^{7}

Option C - Incorrect
4( \sqrt{81} )^{7} should equal to (4)( 81^{ \frac{7}{2} } )

Option D - Incorrect
5^{ \frac{2}{3} } should equal to ( \sqrt[3]{5} )^{2}
