Answer the questions below about the quadratic function.f(x) = -2x² - 4x
Juli2301 [7.4K]

We are given the function below;

f(x)=-2x^2-4x

PART A

We then proceed to find if the function has a minimum or maximum value. To find if the function has a minimum or maximum value. If the x^2 coefficient is positive, the function has a minimum. If it is negative, the function has a maximum.

ANSWER: From the above, we can see that x^2 is negative, hence the function has a maximum

PART B and C

To find the minimum or maximum value, we would plot the graph of the f(x). The graph can be seen below.

From the graph, the black point helps answer part A and part B.

ANSWER: The function's maximum value is f(x)=2.

This is the point where the slope of the graph is equal to zero

ANSWER: The maximum value then occurs at x= -1

We can also solve this by differentiating the function.

\begin{gathered} f(x)=-2x^2-4x \\ f^{\prime}(x)=-4x-4 \\ At\xi maxmum\text{ }f^{\prime}(x)=0 \\ -4x-4=0 \\ -4x=4 \\ x=-\frac{4}{4} \\ x=-1 \\ \therefore\text{The max}imum\text{ value occurs at x=-1} \\ \text{Inserting the value of x into the function, we have} \\ f(x)=-2(-1)^2-4(-1) \\ f(x)=-2+4 \\ f(x)=2 \\ \therefore\text{The function max}imum\text{ value is 2} \end{gathered}

What are the solutions to the following system of equations?<br><br> x − y = 6<br> y = x2 −6
anastassius [24]

The solutions to the given system of equations is (0, -6) and (1, -5)  

<h3>Simultaneous equations</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the solutions to the given system of equations

The equations are

x − y = 6 --------- (1)

y = x² −6 ---------- (2)

From equation (1)

x - y = 6

∴ x = 6 + y ------- (3)

Substitute into equation (2)

y = x² −6

y = (6+y)² −6

y = (6+y)(6+y) -6

y = 36 + 6y + 6y +y² -6

y = 36 + 12y + y² - 6

Simplifying

y² + 12y - y + 30 = 0

y² + 11y + 30 = 0

Solve quadratically

y² + 11y + 30 = 0

y² + 6y + 5y + 30 = 0

y(y +6) +5 (y +6) = 0

(y + 5)(y + 6) = 0

y + 5 = 0 OR y + 6 = 0

y = -5 OR y = -6

Substitute the values of y into equation (3)

x = 6 + y

When y = -5

x = 6 + (-5)

x = 6 -5

x = 1

When y = -6

x = 6 + (-6)

x = 6 -6

x = 0

∴ When x = 0, y = -6 and when x = 1, y = -5

Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations is (0, -6) and (1, -5)
