By "slope" I assume you mean slope of the tangent line to the parabola.
For any given value of <em>x</em>, the slope of the tangent to the parabola is equal to the derivative of <em>y</em> :

The slope at <em>x</em> = 1 is 5:

The slope at <em>x</em> = -1 is -11:

We can already solve for <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> :


Finally, the parabola passes through the point (2, 18); that is, the quadratic takes on a value of 18 when <em>x</em> = 2:

So the parabola has equation

Answer: A. G(x)= ax=y= - f(x) is flip over x-axis. Therefore, f(x) =14x would become f(x) =-14x. Therefore, final transformed function f(x)=-14x is vertically stretch by a factor of 14 and flip over the x-axis.
Answer:
db / dt = kb
this becomes b(t) = Ce^(kt)
C = 100, the initial population
P(1) = 420 = 100 e^(1k)
4.2 = e^k
ln 4.2 = k
a) thus, b(t) = 100 e^(t ln 4.2)
b) b(3) = 100 e^(3 ln 4.2)
c) growth constant will still be ln 4.2 (constant percentage of populatioin)
d) 10000 = 100 e^(t ln 4.2)
100 = e^(t ln 4.2)
ln 100 = t ln 4.2
t = ln 100 / ln 4.2
Step-by-step explanation:
No, less than half of the applicants got an interview. 1/2 of the applicants would be 24 that would need to be interviewed.
To calculate the percentage: 22/48 x 100. This gives you 45.8% got interviewed.
