Given:

A quadratic function has x-intercepts 2 and 6 and its vertex is (4, 8).

To find:

The corresponding quadratic expression.

Solution:

If graph of a function intersect the x-axis at c, then (x-c) is a factor of the function.

A quadratic function has x-intercepts 2 and 6. It means (x-2) and (x-6) are two factors of the required quadratic function.

The function is defined as:

P(x)=a(x-2)(x-6)                    ...(i)

Where, a is a constant.

The vertex of the quadratic function is (4,8). It means the point (4,8) will satisfy the function.

Substituting x=4 and P(x)=8 in (i).

8=a(4-2)(4-6)

8=a(2)(-2)

8=-4a

Divide both sides by -4.

\dfrac{8}{-4}=a

-2=a

Putting a=-2 in (i), we get

P(x)=-2(x-2)(x-6)

P(x)=-2(x^2-6x-2x+12)

P(x)=-2(x^2-8x+12)

P(x)=-2x^2+16x-24

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

10 years and 10 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The annually interest rate (ia) can be converted by monthly (im) by the equation:

(1 + im)¹² = 1 + ia

(1 + im)¹² = 1 +0.01

(1 + im)¹² = 1.001 (putting ln in both sides)

ln(1 + im)¹² = ln1.001

12*ln(1 + im) = 1.0x10⁻³

ln(1 + im) = 8.33x10⁻⁵(applying "e in both sides)

e^{ln(1 + im)} = e^{8.33x10^{-5}}

1 + im = 1.00083

im = 0.00083 = 0.083%

For a investimenting, the final amount (A) can be calculated by:

A = R*(\frac{(1+i)^n-1}{i} )

Where R is the amount invested per month, i is the interest, and n the number of months:

160000 = 400 *\frac{(1 +0.00083)^n - 1}{0.00083}

\frac{(1 +0.00083)^n - 1}{0.00083} = 400

1.00083ⁿ - 1 = 0.332

1.00083ⁿ = 1.332 (applying ln in both sides)

n*ln1.00083 = ln1.332

8.3x10⁻⁴n = 0.2867

n = 345.4 months

345.4 months *1 yea12 months = 10 years and 10 months.
