On the second day he decided to keep ½ of his peaches. He gave the rest away then he ate one. On the third day he decided to keep ½ of his peaches. He gave the rest away. Then he ate one. On the fourth day, he found he had only one peach left. How many did he have at the beginning?

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Working backwards

1+1 then x2 is 4

4+1 then x2 is 10

10+1 then x2 is 22

alekssr [168]

Identify the vertex, axis of symmetry, minimum or maximum, domain, and range of the function ()=−(+)^−

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

vertex = (-4, -5)

Axis of symmetry = -4

use the (-4, -5) to find the minimum value

Domain = ( - \infty, \infty ) , [ x | x\ is\ real ]\\\\Range = [ -5, \infty ), y\geq -5

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given function is:

f(x) = (x+4)^2 - 5

The equation in vertex form is given as:

y = a(x-h)^2+k

Where, (h, k) is constant

On comparing give function with vertex form,

h = -4

k = -5

Vertex is (-4 , -5)

Axis of symmetry : x co-ordinate of vertex

Thus, axis of symmetry = -4

The coefficient of x^2 is positive in given function.

Thus the vertex point will be a minimum

Minimum\ value = f(\frac{-b}{a})

f(x) = x^2 + 8x + 16 - 5\\\\f(x) = x^2 + 8x + 11

f(x) = ax^2+bx+c

On comparing,

a = 1

b = 8

x = \frac{-b}{2a} = \frac{-8}{2 \times 1} = -4

f(-4) = (-4)^2 + 8(-4) + 11 = 16 - 32 + 11 = -5

Thus, use the (-4, -5) to find the minimum value

Domain and range

f(x) = (x+4)^2 - 5

The domain is the input values shown on the x-axis

The range is the set of possible output values f(x)

Therefore,

Domain = ( - \infty, \infty ) , [ x | x\ is\ real ]\\\\Range = [ -5, \infty ), y\geq -5
