The vertex of this parabola is at (-3, 6). Which of the following could be its equation?

12345 [234]

Nice, already in vertex form
y=a(x-h)^2+k
(h,k) is vertex

therfor since (-3,6) is vertex
we are looking for something like
y=a(x-(-3))^2+6 simplified to
y=a(x+3)^2+6

A is ansre

The length of a rectangle is 12 units longer than the width. The perimeter is 7 times the width. Find the length and the width o

katen-ka-za [31]

Log explanation below; answer is at bottom.

If the length, l, is 12 units longer than the width, w, then w = l - 12. If the perimeter, p,

p = 2l +2w,

is 7 x w, then

w = p/7

When two things are set equal to the same variable, they are equal to each other, so,

l - 12 = p/7

Now you need to get rid of the p so you are only working with one variable. To do this you plug in whatever p is equal to for p, so,

l - 12 = (2l + 2w)/7 now to get rid of the w do the same thing we did with p just for w. So,

l - 12 = (2l + 2(l - 12))/7

To solve this you want to multiply both sides by 7 first to get rid of the fraction.

7l - 84 = 2l + 2(l - 12)

Next you want to distribute the 2 over the l and the 12.

7l - 84 = 2l + 2l - 24

Next you want to combine like terms on each side.

7l - 84 = 4l - 24

Next add 84 and subtract 4l from sides to isolate the variable.

3l = 60

Now divide each side by 11 to get your answer.

l = 20.

To find the width,

w = l - 12

Just plug in and solve.

w = 20 - 12

w = 8

So your length and width are 20 and 8.

l = 20

w = 8

F(x) = x + 2 g(x) = x – 4 (f g)(x) =

Sauron [17]

Answer:

x² - 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The notation (f·g)(x) means to multiply the two functions. Use the distributive property to simplify.

(f·g)(x) = (x+2)(x-4) = x² + 2x - 4x - 8 = x² - 2x - 8

The 4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 12 and the 8th term is 36. Find the 17th term of the sequence.

Blizzard [7]

Answer: 90

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the nth term of a sequence is given as :

$t_{n}$ = a + ( n - d )

Where a is the first term

d is the common difference and

n is the number of terms

This means that the 4th term of an arithmetic sequence will have the formula :

$t_{4}$ = a + 3d

And the 4th term has been given to be , 12 ,substituting into the formula we have

12 = a + 3d .............................. equation 1

Also substituting for the 8th term , we have

36 = a + 7d .............................. equation 2

Combining the two equations , we have

a + 3d = 12 ................... equation 1

a + 7d = 36 ------------ equation 2

Solving the system of linear equation by substitution method , make a the subject of formula from equation 1 , that is

a = 12 - 3d ................... equation 3

substitute a = 12 - 3d into equation 2 , equation 2 then becomes

12 - 3d + 7d = 36

12 + 4d = 36

subtract 12 from both sides

4d = 36 - 12

4d = 24

divide through by 4

d = 6

substitute d = 6 into equation 3 to find the value of a, we have

a = 12 - 3d

a = 12 - 3 ( 6)

a = 12 - 18

a = -6

Therefore , the 17th term of the sequence will be :

$t_{17}$ = a + 16d

$t_{17}$ = -6 + 16 (6)

$t_{17}$ = -6 + 96

$t_{17}$ = 90

Therefore : the 17th term of the sequence is 90
