<em>1</em><em>2</em>

=> here's your solution

=> hypotenuse = 13

=> base. = 5

=> we need to find out perpendicular

=> so, we know. h^2 = b^2 + p^2

=> now putting value in this formula

=> p^2 = 13^2 - 5^2

=> p^2 = 169 - 25

=> p^2 = 144

=> p = √144

= >> p = 12

in Youngstown, the population reached 4420 people in 1993. in 1998 the population was 5600 residents. what was the population in

Julli [10]

5600 - 4420 = 1180....so there is a difference of 1180 in a period of (1998 - 1993) = 5 yrs.

1180/5 = 236 people per yr

so in 1998 the population was 5600.....in 2000 (2 yrs later) the population would be : 5600 + 236(2) = 5600 + 472 = 6072 <==

Write the equation of the quadratic function whose graph passes through <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-3%2C2%29" id="TexF

blagie [28]

Answer:

$f(x)=x^2+3x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write the equation of a quadratic whose graph passes through (-3, 2), (-1, 0), and (1, 6).

Remember that the standard quadratic function is given by:

$f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$

Since it passes through the point (-3, 2). This means that when $x=-3$ , $f(x)=f(-3)=2$ . Hence:

$f(-3)=2=a(-3)^2+b(-3)+c$

Simplify:

$2=9a-3b+c$

Perform the same computations for the coordinates (-1, 0) and (1, 6). Therefore:

$0=a(-1)^2+b(-1)+c \\ \\0=a-b+c$

And for (1, 6):

$6=a(1)^2+b(1)+c\\\\ 6=a+b+c$

So, we have a triple system of equations:

$\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} 2=9a-3b+c &\\ 0=a-b+c \\6=a+b+c \end{array} \right.$

We can solve this using elimination.

Notice that the b term in Equation 2 and 3 are opposites. Hence, let's add them together. This yields:

$(0+6)=(a+a)+(-b+b)+(c+c)$

Compute:

$6=2a+2c$

Let's divide both sides by 2:

$3=a+c$

Now, let's eliminate b again but we will use Equation 1 and 2.

Notice that if we multiply Equation 2 by -3, then the b terms will be opposites. So:

$-3(0)=-3(a-b+c)$

Multiply:

$0=-3a+3b-3c$

Add this to Equation 1:

$(0+2)=(9a-3a)+(-3b+3b)+(c-3c)$

Compute:

$2=6a-2c$

Again, we can divide both sides by 2:

$1=3a-c$

So, we know have two equations with only two variables:

$3=a+c\text{ and } 1=3a-c$

We can solve for a using elimination since the c term are opposites of each other. Add the two equations together:

$(3+1)=(a+3a)+(c-c)$

Compute:

$4=4a$

Solve for a:

$a=1$

So, the value of a is 1.

Using either of the two equations, we can now find c. Let's use the first one. Hence:

$3=a+c$

Substitute 1 for a and solve for c:

$\begin{aligned} c+(1)&=3 \\c&=2 \end{aligned}$

So, the value of c is 2.

Finally, using any of the three original equations, solve for b:

We can use Equation 3. Hence:

$6=a+b+c$

Substitute in known values and solve for b:

$6=(1)+b+(2)\\\\6=3+b\\\\b=3$

Therefore, a=1, b=3, and c=2.

Hence, our quadratic function is:

$f(x)=x^2+3x+2$
