The expression that is most useful for finding the year where the population was at a minimum would be 8(x − 9)² + 216.

Given expression 8x² − 144x + 864 is used to approximate a small town's population in thousands from 1998 to 2018, where x represents the number of years since 1998.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is the second-order degree algebraic expression in a variable. the standard form of this expression is  ax² + bx + c = 0 where a. b are coefficients and x is the variable and c is a constant.

Given expression is 8x² − 144x + 864

Let y = 8x² − 144x + 864

also,  y - 864 = 8x² - 144x

by Extracting common factor 8 on the right side

y - 864 = 8(x² - 18x)

Add (18/2)² on both sides, we get

y - 864 + 8(18/2)² = 8 (x² - 18x + 81²)

y - 864 + 648 = 8 (x² - 8x + 9)

on simplification

y - 216 = 8 (x - 9)²

y = 8(x - 9)² + 216

therefore, y = 8 (x - 9)² + 216

The expression that is most useful for finding the year where the population was at a minimum would be 8(x − 9)² + 216.

A linear function has a slope of 4 and a y-intercept of (0,-8). What is the x-intercept of the line?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 2 or (2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

slope = m = 4

y-intercept = -8

Process

1.- Write the equation of the line in the slope y-intercept

                    y = mx + b

In this equation:

m = slope

b = y-intercept

-Substitution

                   y = 4x - 8

2.- To find the x-intercept, consider that y = 0 and solve for x.

                   0 = 4x - 8

                   4x = 8

                     x = 8/4

                    x = 2    or (2, 0)

___ x 4 = 12<br> ___ x 5 = 20<br> ___ x 2 = 10
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

3 x 4 = 12

4 x 5 = 20

5 x 2 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12

3 four times equals 12

This is the same for the others

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 20

Four 5 times equals 20

Which point is on the line that passes through (0,6) and is parallel to the given line? plzz helppp!
Grace [21]

Points on given line = (-12,-2) and (0,-4) because you can see them on the graph.  Then draw a parallel line thru (0,6)

To get from (0,-4) to (0,6) your x stays constant and your y coordinate increased by 10.  So your new point will do the same in relation to (-12,-2)  the x will stay constant at -12 and your y will increase by 10 to +8.  

So the answer is A (-12,8)

You can check this because parallel lines have the same slope so

y2-y1/x2-x1 should be equal for both lines.

Line 1:  -4 - (-2) / 0 - (-12) = -2/12 = -1/6

Line 2:  6 - 8 / 0 - (-12) = -2/12 = -1/6
