stellarik [79]2 years ago
8 0

well, looking at the picture of this vertically opening parabola, it has a vertex at 0,0 and it passes through 2,1 hmm ok

~~~~~~\textit{vertical parabola vertex form} \\\\ y=a(x- h)^2+ k\qquad \begin{cases} \stackrel{vertex}{(h,k)}\\\\ \stackrel{"a"~is~negative}{op ens~\cap}\qquad \stackrel{"a"~is~positive}{op ens~\cup} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ y = a(x-0)^2+0\qquad \stackrel{\textit{we also know that}}{x=2\qquad y = 1}\qquad \implies 1=a(2-0)^2+0 \\\\\\ 1=4a\implies \cfrac{1}{4}=a~\hspace{10em} \boxed{y=\cfrac{1}{4}x^2}

Do you think a negative number raised to an even power will be positive or negative? Explain.
Tanya [424]

Answer:

A negative number taken to an even power gives a positive result (because the pairs of negatives cancel), and a negative number taken to an odd power gives a negative result (because, after cancelling, there will be one minus sign left over).

SOS I'm terrible at math.
Tresset [83]
<span>y = -5 cos x is a basic (simple) variation of the basic trig function y = cos x.

The given </span>y = -5 cos x could be re-written as <span>y = -5 cos 1x.
Compare this to the most general form:          y =  a cos bx.

Here we see that the coefficient b equals 1.

There is a rule for finding the period of such a function:  Period = 2pi/b.

Since b = 1 here, the Period here is 2pi/1, or simply 2pi.

Please stop saying "I'm terrible with math."  That does not help you at all.  Say, instead, "With just a little help I could understand this just fine."</span>
