Find the vertex of the parabola given by y=2x^2-4x-1

Given the quadratic y = 2x^2-4x-1,  I identify A = 2, B= -4 and C = -1. The axis of symmety: x = -b/2a  --> 4/2(2) = 4/4 = 1. Therefore, the x-coordinate of the vertex is 1. To find the y-coordinate, I plug in 1 for x into the quadratic. Hence, y = 2(1)^2-4(1)-1 ---> -3.  The coordinates of the vertex are (1,-3).

The area of a rectangle room is 750 square feet. The width of the room is 5 feet less than the length of the room. Which equatio
olga_2 [115]
By definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:
 A = (width) * (long)
 Substituting values we have:
 750 = (y-5) * (y)
 Rewriting we have:
 750 = y ^ 2 - 5y
 y ^ 2 - 5y - 750 = 0
 Answer:
 
An equation that can be used to solve for And the length of the room is:
 
y ^ 2 - 5y - 750 = 0

Jerald jumped from a bungee tower. If the equation that models his height, in feet, is h = –16t2 + 729, where t is the time in s
Snezhnost [94]

Answer. First option: t > 6.25


Solution:

Height (in feet): h=-16t^2+729

For which interval of time is h less than 104 feet above the ground?

h < 104

Replacing h for -16t^2+729

-16t^2+729 < 104

Solving for h: Subtracting 729 both sides of the inequality:

-16t^2+729-729 < 104-729

-16t^2 < -625

Multiplying the inequality by -1:

(-1)(-16t^2 < -625)

16t^2 > 625

Dividing both sides of the inequality by 16:

16t^2/16 > 625/16

t^2 > 39.0625

Replacing t^2 by [ Absolute value (t) ]^2:

[ Absolute value (t) ]^2 > 39.0625

Square root both sides of the inequality:

sqrt { [ Absolute value (t) ]^2 } > sqrt (39.0625)

Absolute value (t) > 6.25

t < -6.25 or t > 6.25, but t can not be negative, then the solution is:

t > 6.25
