Using a minimum of two sentences, describe how to write the function, f(x) = (x + 2)^2 - 3, in standard form.

1 answer:

3 0

First, simplify the (x+2)(x+2) with FOIL:
f(x)=( $x^{2} +2x+2x+4$ )-3
Combine like terms
f(x)= $x^{2} +4x+1$
Then you have standard form.

Hope that helps.

Is there a way to understand inequalities better? I don't get them at all!

AlekseyPX

Ok for inequalities it's this < and > that so here's a example prob 3>2 so as my teacher used it put it "it's like the little number eats the bigger number." For negatives the one that's being eaten would be the one that's the closest to 0 so -3>-5 also alone way of doing this is to make a number line that's another way I was taught how to do these. I hope this helps you!

Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 4x^2=x^3+2x?

irina [24]

Next time, please share the answer choices.
Starting from scratch, it's possible to find the roots:

4x^2=x^3+2x should be rearranged in descending order by powers of x:

x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x = 0. Factoring out x: x(x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0

Clearly, one root is 0. We must now find the roots of (x^2 - 4x + 2):

Here we could learn a lot by graphing. The graph of y = x^2 - 4x + 2 never touches the x-axis, which tells us that (x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0 has no real roots other than x=0. You could also apply the quadratic formula here; if you do, you'll find that the discriminant is negative, meaning that you have two complex, unequal roots.

When a shape is rotated, it must be rotated around a point.

To determine the location of the new triangle, Sonja must subtract (5,-1) from the coordinates of the original triangle, before rotating by $90^o$ .
