What will be the unit digit of the square of 7992

Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you need not completely solve 7992 squared. You can just take the last digit which in this case is 2 and solve for the square of that digit. 2 x 2 = 4. Now if it was a bigger digit which would result in a two digit number when squared you would take the last digit of that number. But, we don't need to do that here since 2 squared is 4.

between 1995 and 2006, the population of samburg, usa(in thousands) can be modeled by f(x) = 0.35x(squared) - 2.1x+15.8 where x=

Juli2301 [7.4K]

$\bf f(x)=0.35x^2-2.1x+15.8\qquad 
\begin{cases}
x=\textit{year since 1995}\\
f(x)=\textit{population amount}
\end{cases}$

the equation is a quadratic one, and it has a positive coefficient on the leading term, meaning, is opening upwards, so it has a "burrow" for the vertex.

the minimum or lowest point for a quadratic opening upwards is, well, the vertex point :), the "x" value is the year, the "y" or f(x) value is the population, we're asked for the year, or the x-coordinate of the vertex

well $\bf \begin{array}{llll}
f(x)=&0.35x^2&-2.1x&+15.8\\
&\quad \uparrow &\quad \uparrow&\uparrow \\
&\quad a&\quad b &c
\end{array}
