Alja [10]

Answer:

standard form:   y = x² - 2x - 8

vertex form:  y = (x − 1)² - 9

factorized form:  y = (x + 2)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

From inspection of the graph:

  • Axis of symmetry:  x = 1
  • Vertex = (1, -9)
  • x-intercepts = (-2, 0) and (4, 0)
  • y-intercept = (0, -8)

Standard quadratic form:   y = ax² + b x + c

Vertex form of a quadratic equation:   y = a(x − h)² + k

If a > 0 then the parabola opens upwards

If a < 0 then the parabola opens downwards

(h, k) is the vertex

c is the y-intercept

Inputting the vertex into the vertex form gives:

y = a(x − 1)² - 9

  = a(x² - 2x + 1) - 9

  = ax² - 2ax - 8

Using the x-intercepts to create a quadratic equation:

y = a(x + 2)(x - 4)

  = a(x² - 2x - 8)

  = ax² - 2ax - 8a

Comparing the y-intercepts:

-8 = -8a  ⇒  a = 1

Therefore,   y = x² - 2x - 8

Factor 25b – 14b<br> b(25 – 14)<br> b(25 + 14)<br> -b(25 – 14)<br> -b(25 + 14)
klio [65]

\huge\text{Hey there!}

\large\text{We cannot  do much of nothing because we don’t have all the information}\\\large\text{to solve.. so we can just simply do process of elimination until we fully find}\\\large\text{the ANSWER you are trying to look for.}

\large\text{Given equation: 25b - 14b}\\\large\text{COMBINE your LIKE TERMS}\\\large\text{\underline{25b - 14b} = 11b}\\\large\text{So, we are looking for an equation that gives us \bf{11b}}

\large\text{Option A.}\downarrow\\\large\text{b(25 - 14)}\\\large\text{DISTRIBUTE: b(25) + b(-14)}\\\bullet\large\text{ Reverts to: 25b - 14b (our ORIGINAL EQUATION) so this can be}\\\large\text{equal to 11b}\\\\\large\text{Option A. could POSSIBLY  be your ANSWER}

\large\text{Option B. }\downarrow\\\large\text{b(25 + 14)}\\\large\text{Distribute}\\\large\text{25(b) + 14(b)}\\\large\text{It DOES NOT revert to the original equation. It gives us: 25b + 14b}\\\large\text{If we COMBINE your LIKE TERMS in that equation. We would get: 39b}\\\large\bf{39b \neq 11b}\\\\\large\text{Option B is NOT your ANSWER}

\large\text{Options C and D CANNOT be your answers because Option C. is}\\\large\text{-11b and Option D. is -39b}

\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{To sum it all up, your ANSWER is: \bf{Option A. b(25 - 14)}}}}\huge\checkmark

\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}

A toxic radioactive substance with a density of 2 milligrams per square centimeter is detected in the ventilating ducts of a nuc
Zolol [24]

Answer:

60.5 milligrams per square centimeter First, determine how many half lives have expired by dividing the time by the half-life. So: 55/20 = 2.75 That means that only 2^(-2.75) = 0.148650889 = 14.8650889% of the original substance remains. So just divide the amount remaining by 0.148650889 to get the original amount. 9 / 0.148650889 = 60.5445419 So originally, there was 60.5 milligrams per square centimeter 55 years ago.
