3(x-1)^2 +2
This is your answer in vertex form, your h and k values are the vertex. Solving the function by using b/2a, we get that h is 1. ( in the equation 3 is your a, 6 is b and 5 is c.). ( 6/2(3)) = 1. We can then plug in 1 as x into the original equation and get positive 2 ( 3(1)^2 -6(1) +5) = 3-6+5 = 2. This is your vertex. In the function, your a value will always stay the same as this is your shrink or stretch. In this case, a is 3 so it will go outside the parenthesis. Put that all together and you get the function above.
Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x>-8

Step-by-step explanation:

5 − (x + 5) > −2(x + 4)

Distribute the minus sign and the -2

5 - x -5 > -2x-8

-x > -2x-8

Add 2x to each side

-x+2x > -2x+2x-8

x>-8

Calculus question?

Ann [662]

Remark
If you don't start exactly the right way, you can get into all kinds of trouble. This is just one of those cases. I think the best way to start is to divide both terms by x^(1/2)

Step One
Divide both terms in the numerator by x^(1/2)
y= 6x^(1/2) + 3x^(5/2 - 1/2)
y =6x^(1/2) + 3x^(4/2)
y = 6x^(1/2) + 3x^2 Now differentiate that. It should be much easier.

Step Two
Differentiate the y in the last step.
y' = 6(1/2) x^(- 1/2) + 3*2 x^(2 - 1)
y' = 3x^(-1/2) + 6x I wonder if there's anything else you can do to this. If there is, I don't see it.

I suppose this is possible.
y' = 3/x^(1/2) + 6x

y' = $\frac{3 + 6x^{3/2}}{x^{1/2}}$

Frankly I like the first answer better, but you have a choice of both.

A town's employment statistics show that 855 of its residents were unemployed last month. This is a decrease of 25% from the pre

Leona [35]

Decrease of 25% means only 855 people? Okay, so you want to backtrack. If you divide by 25% you’re going to get what it was for a 75% decrease. So divide by .75 instead. 855/.75 = 1140 unemployed residents last month
