Answer:

vertex: (2, -3.2)

axis of symmetry: x = 2

zeros: x=0, x=4

formula for axis of symmetry:

x = <x-coordinate of vertex>
x = -b/(2a) . . . . . . . where the quadratic is ax^2 +bx +c
x = average of zeros, (z1 +z2)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The vertex x-coordinate is halfway between the zeros, so is x = (0+4)/2 = 2. It is where the graph has a turning point.

The vertex y-coordinate is the low point of this graph. It is not on a grid line, so we can only guess at its value. I choose to call it -3.2.

The vertex is (2, -3.2).

__

b) The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex. The constant in its equation is the x-coordinate of the vertex:

x = 2

__

c) The zeros of the function are where the function crosses the x-axis. These are marked on the graph with red dots. The zeros are x=0 and x=4.

__

d) When the quadratic is written in standard form, ax^2 +bx +c, the equation of the axis of symmetry is ...

x = -b/(2a) . . . . . perhaps this is the formula you're being asked for (?)

When there is no equation, the axis of symmetry can be found from the graph a couple of ways. One is to identify the x-coordinate of the vertex.

x = <x-coordinate of the vertex>

Another is to average the zeros, since they are symmetrical about the axis of symmetry.

x = average of zeros = (z1 +z2)/2

If the quadratic is written in vertex form, the vertex coordinate is the constant in the equation for the axis of symmetry.

y = a(x -h)^2 +k . . . . . quadratic with vertex (h, k)

x = h . . . . . . equation of axis of symmetry

A lawyer has found 60 investors for a limited partnership to purchase an inner-city apartment building, with each contributing e

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

1. The lawyer has 34 investors that contribute with $3,000 and has 26 investors that contribute with $6,000.

2. The jar has 26 nickels and 44 dimes that worth $5.70.

3. The concession stand has sold 1600 sodas and 1400 hotdogs

Step-by-step explanation:

For all the problems we are going to follow the same process that will consist on 1. Define the variables. 2. Formulate the system of two linear equations 3. Solve by the elimination method 4. Give the answer.

First problem.

- Variables:

x = number of investors that contribute with $3,000

y = number of investors that contribute with $6,000

- System of equations.

First equation will be the result of adding the number of investors that will give us a total of 60 investors then:

x + y = 60

Second equation is the result of multypling the number of investors by its invest and adding between them to get the $258,000 they have raised:

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

The system will be:

x + y = 60

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

- Solve by the elimination method.

To cancel x we are going to multiply by -3000 in both sides of the first equation and we will leave the second equation the same but in the first row to make easier the calculations then:

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

(x + y ) (-3,000) = 60 (-3,000) solve the multiplications

3,000x + 6,000y = 258,000

-3,000x - 3,000y = -180,000 solve the operations

0 + 3,000y = 78,000 clear y

$y = \frac{78,000}{3,000}$ solve the division

y = 26

For calculate x, replace the y value in the first equation and solve it

x + 26 = 60

x = 60 - 26

x = 34

- Answer

The lawyer has 34 investors that contribute with $3,000 and has 26 investors that contribute with $6,000.

Second problem

- Variables:

x = number of nickels

y = number of dimes

- System of equations.

First equation will be the result of adding the number of nickels and dimes that will give us a total of 70 coins in the jar then:

x + y = 70

Second equation is the result of multypling the number of coins by its value and adding between them to get the $5.70 that the jar worth:

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

The system will be:

x + y = 70

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

- Solve by the elimination method.

To cancel x we are going to multiply by -0.05 in both sides of the first equation and we will leave the second equation the same but in the first row to make easier the calculations then:

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

(x + y ) (-0.05) = 70 (-0.05) solve the multiplications

0.05x + 0.1 y = 5.70

-0.05x - 0.05y = -3.50 solve the operations

0 + 0.05y = 2.20 clear y

$y = \frac{2.20}{0.05}$ solve the division

y = 44

For calculate x, replace the y value in the first equation and solve it

x + 44 = 70

x = 70 - 44

x = 26

- Answer

The jar has 26 nickels and 44 dimes that worth $5.70.

Third problem.

- Variables:

x = number of sodas sold by $2

y = number of hotdogs sold by $3

- System of equations.

First equation will be the result of adding the number of sodas and hotdogs that is of 3000 then:

x + y = 3000

Second equation is the result of multypling the number of sodas and hotdogs by its price and adding between them to get the $7400 of the receipts:

2x + 3y = 7400

The system will be:

x + y = 3000

2x + 3y = 7400

- Solve by the elimination method.

To cancel x we are going to multiply by -2 in both sides of the first equation and we will leave the second equation the same but in the first row to make easier the calculations then:

2x + 3y = 7400

(x + y ) (-2) = 3000 (-2) solve the multiplications

2x + 3y = 7400

-2x - 2y = -6000 solve the operations

0 + 1y = 1400 clear y

$y = \frac{1400}{1}$ solve the division

y = 1400

For calculate x, replace the y value in the first equation and solve it

x + 1400 = 3000

x = 3000 - 1400

x = 1600

- Answer

The concession stand has sold 1600 sodas and 1400 hotdogs

In a survey of sixth-grade students, 70 students, or 40% of all the students surveyed, said that they liked mustard on hot dogs.

n200080 [17]

Answer: 210

Step-by-step explanation: 70+70+70=210 and 40% for 210 students would add up to 120% of all students surveyed. Look if there is 70 students that's been surveyed that is 40% add 40% 3 times(40%+40%+40%)=120% of all students surveyed

How many years (to two decimal places) will it take $15000 to grow to $17500 if it is invested at 8% compounded semi- annually?

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

1.97 years

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 8/100

r = 0.08 per year,

Then, solve the equation for t

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

t = ln(17,500.00/15,000.00) / ( 2 × [ln(1 + 0.08/2)] )

t = ln(17,500.00/15,000.00) / ( 2 × [ln(1 + 0.04)] )

t = 1.965 years
