What is the end behavior of the graph of f(x) = – 0.5x^2 – 3x – 4?

We will see that as x tends to ± ∞, the function tends to -∞.

  • for  x ⇒ ∞, f(x)  ⇒ -∞
  • for  x ⇒ -∞, f(x)  ⇒ -∞.

<h3><u>What is the end behavior?</u></h3>

We define the end behavior as how the function behaves as x tends to very large, in absolute value, values.

In this case we have a quadratic equation:

f(x) = -0.5*x^2 - 3*x - 4

Here you can see that the leading coefficient is negative, thus, the arms of the graph will go downwards.

This means that in the limits of x ⇒ ∞ and x ⇒ -∞, the function will tend to negative infinity.

Then the end behavior can be written as:

  • for  x ⇒ ∞, f(x)  ⇒ -∞
  • for  x ⇒ -∞, f(x)  ⇒ -∞.

Solving systems of equations algebraically.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

x = 2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it gives you the value of y already, just plug that into the equation, like so:

y = 4x - 9

x - 3 = 4x - 9

<em><u>Subtract the x from both sides:</u></em>

x - 3 = 4x - 9

-x       - x

__________

-3 = 3x - 9

<em><u>Then, add 9 to both sides:</u></em>

-3 = 3x - 9

+9        + 9

________

6 = 3x

<em><u>Divide both sides by 3:</u></em>

2 = x

<em><u>Now plug in x for y:</u></em>

y = x - 3

y = 2 - 3

y = -1

Mr. McGee mowed 4/5 of his lawn. His three sons finished the mowing. Each son mowed the same amount. How much of the lawn did ea
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

1 fifteenth, or 1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 3 sons multiply the fraction by 3 and then you have 12/15 because 12/15 is equal to 4/5, so the remaining is 3 out of 15, so divide that between the 3 sons and boom, 1/15th per son.
