First let's get the vertex of the function

( \frac{-b}{2a},f( \frac{-b}{2a}))

(-1,25) is the vertex

so the maximum height is 25 feet

bulgar [2K]
There are four 7's in a standard card. Chance of getting a 7 first is 4/52 = 1/13
There are four queens in a standard card. Chance of getting a queen in the second drawing is 4/51 and chance of getting a queen in the third drawing is 3/50.

Therefore, chance of drawing a seven and two queens is 1/13 x 4/51 x 3/50 = 2/5525

The function y=x²-4x+8 approximates the height, y, of a bird, and its horizontal distance, x, as it flies from one
trapecia [35]

When the bird is 2 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 4 feet  , Minimum at (2,4)

Therefore Option C and D is the correct answer.

<h3>What is a Quadratic Function?</h3>

The equation for a quadratic function is given by

y = a(x-h)² +k²

where (h,k) is the extreme value(vertex).

Here the equation given is

y = x²-4x +8

y = x²-4x+4+4

y = (x-2)² +4

Here the value of a = 1 , h = 2 and k = 4

The extreme value is at (2,4)

Therefore When the bird is 2 feet away from the first fence post, it reaches its minimum height of 4 feet  , Minimum at (2,4)

Therefore Option C and D is the correct answer.

(b) Find all 3-tuples (a,b,c) satisfying
jolli1 [7]

We have a three unknown, 4 equation homogeneous system.  These always have at least (0,0,0) as a solution.  Let's write the equations, one column at a time.

1a + 0b + 0c = 0

-1a + 1b +0c = 0

0a - 1b + c = 0

0a + 0b + -1 c = 0

We could do row reduction but these are easy enough not to bother.

Equation 1 says

a = 0

Equation 4 says

c = 0

Substituting in the two remaining,

-1(0) + 1b + 0c = 0

b = 0

0(0) - 1b + 0 = 0

b = 0

The only 3-tuple satisfying the vector equation is (a,b,c)=(0,0,0)
