Consider the quadratic function that has x-intercepts of–1 and –7 and passes through the point (-2,-20). What is the
value of a in the factored form of this function?
1, 2,3,4?

Answers

Answer 1
Short Answer: a = 4
Remark: How did this escape deletion?

Step One
Set up the factored equation with a constant to solve the constant effecting all parts of the quadratic.

The roots are -7 and -1
The factors are (x + 7)(x + 1)

Step two
Write the equation
y = a*(x +7)(x + 1)

Step three
Solve for a. Use (-2,-20)
y = -20
x = -2

-20 = a(-2 + 7)(-2 + 1)
-20 = a (5)(-1)
-20 = -5a Divide by -5
a = -20/-5
a = 4

Step 4.
Write the equation with a
y = 4(x + 7)(x + 1)

a = 4

The slope of a line that passes through the points (-6, w) and (-10, 4) ls 1/8. What is the
value of w?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle w=\frac{9}{2}=4.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use slope formula:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

So:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{4-w}{-10-(-6)}=\frac{4-w}{-10+6}=\frac{4-w}{-4}[/tex]

We are given that this equals 1/8. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4-w}{-4}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Solve for w. Cross-multiply:

[tex]-4(1)=8(4-w)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]-4=32-8w[/tex]

Isolate:

[tex]-8w=-36[/tex]

So:

[tex]\displaystyle w=\frac{-36}{-8}=\frac{9}{2}=4.5[/tex]

How to do long division ​

Answers

Answer:

if you wanna do long division you have to simply just follow a procedure that is nice and easy so long division method is mainly need to find the square of a number with out using the prime factorization method the procedure is consisting of these of two steps

Obtain the number whose square root is to be computed

place bars every pair of digits starting with the unit digits .Also place a bar on one digit if any not forming a on the extreme left. each pair and the remaining one digit (if any) on the extreme left is called a period

think of the largest number whose square is less than or equal to the first period . if this number as the divisor and the quotient

put the question above the period and write the product of divisor and question just below the first period.

subtract the product of divisor and quotient from the first period and bring down the next point to the right of the remainder this becomes the next dividend.

double the question as it appears and enter It to the blank on the right for the next digits, as the next possible divisor.

think of a digit to fill the blank in step 6 in such a way that the product of new divisor and its digit is equal to or just less than the new dividend obtained in the step 5 .

subtract the product of the digits chosen in steps 7 and the new division from the dividend obtained in step 5 and bring down the next period to the right of the remainder of this becomes new dividend .

repeat the steps 5 6 and 7 till all the periods have been taken up .

obtain the quotient as a square root of the given number .

Put these numbers in order from least to greatest.

0.48,0.73, and 3/10

Answers

the order from least to greatest is 3/10, .48 ,0.73

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3}{10} , 0.48 , 0.73[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to put this number in order from least to greatest, we have to turn them into fractions with the same denominator, so firstly we write down all of the decimals as fractions, and we will get...

[tex]0.48 = \frac{48}{100} \\\\0.73 = \frac{73}{100}[/tex]

Now, we need to find the smallest number that is divisible by 100 and by 10, and this number will be the least common denominator. The smallest number that is divisible by 100 and by 10 is 100, therefore 100 is the least common denominator. Now we have to make all of the fractions have the denominator of 100 and we do that in the following way...

[tex]\frac{48}{100}= \frac{48}{100}\\\\\frac{73}{100} = \frac{73}{100}\\\\\frac{3}{10} = \frac{(3)(10)}{(10)(10)} = \frac{30}{100}[/tex]

By looking at this we need to understand that...

[tex]\frac{30}{100}<\frac{48}{100}<\frac{73}{100}[/tex]

Therefore...

[tex]\frac{3}{10} < 0.48 < 0.73[/tex]

7)    x subtracted from its reciprocal

8)   two numbers have the sum of 11, one number is q find the other

             x + q = 11

9)    six is added to 4 times a number equals 42, find the number

      ( I don't know the six steps discussed in class.  This is how I would do it)

             6 - 6 + 4x = 42 - 6              isolate the variable,  - 6 from both sides

             0 + 4x = 36                            6 - 6 = 0,  43 - 6 = 36, solve for x

                4x/4 = 36/4                      divide both sides by 4

                  1x  =  36 /4                        4/4 = 1

                  x  =   9

The focus is the point inside a parabola that helps determine the shape of the curve.

What is a parabola?

A parabola is an equation of a curve, such that any point on the curve is equidistant from a fixed point called the focus and a fixed line called the directrix of the parabola.

The equation of a parabola:

y = a(x - h)² + k

We have,

A parabola is a type of curve that is formed when a plane intersects a cone at an angle that is parallel to one of the cone's sides.

One of the key defining features of a parabola is that all points on the curve are equidistant from a fixed point, known as the focus, and a fixed line, known as the directrix.

The focus is located inside the parabola, and its distance from the directrix is equal to the distance from any point on the parabola to the directrix.

This property allows us to use the focus and directrix to determine the shape and location of the parabola.

Thus,

The focus is the point inside a parabola that helps determine the shape of the curve.

Answers

Given:

The vertices of a triangle are [tex](1,1),(-1,-1),(-\sqrt{3},\sqrt{3})[/tex].

To prove:

The given vertices are the vertices of an equilateral triangle.

Solution:

Distance formula:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Let the vertices of the triangle are [tex]A(1,1),B(-1,-1),C(-\sqrt{3},\sqrt{3})[/tex]. Then, by using the distance formula, we get

[tex]AB=\sqrt{(-1-1)^2+(-1-1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]AB=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]AB=\sqrt{4+4}[/tex]

[tex]AB=\sqrt{8}[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]BC=\sqrt{(-\sqrt{3}-(-1))^2+(\sqrt{3}-(-1))^2}[/tex]

[tex]BC=\sqrt{(1-\sqrt{3})^2+(1+\sqrt{3})^2}[/tex]

[tex]BC=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{3})^2-2\sqrt{3}+(1)^2+(\sqrt{3})^2+2\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

[tex]BC=\sqrt{1+3+1+3}[/tex]

[tex]BC=\sqrt{8}[/tex]

And,

[tex]CA=\sqrt{(1-(-\sqrt{3}))^2+(1-\sqrt{3})^2}[/tex]

[tex]CA=\sqrt{(1+\sqrt{3}))^2+(1-\sqrt{3})^2}[/tex]

[tex]CA=\sqrt{(1)^2+(\sqrt{3})^2+2\sqrt{3}+(1)^2+(\sqrt{3})^2-2\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

[tex]CA=\sqrt{1+3+1+3}[/tex]

[tex]CA=\sqrt{8}[/tex]

Clearly, [tex]AB=BC=CA[/tex].

Since all sides of the given triangle are equal, therefore the given vertices are the vertices of an equilateral triangle.

Hence proved.

Answer:

x = 14000

Step-by-step explanation:

Function representing the cost to the company,

C(x) = -27x² + 51000x + 20433

Function defining the revenue generated,

R(x) = -36x²+ 303000x

Since, Profit to the company = Revenue - Cost

                                                = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = -36x² + 303000x - (-27x² + 51000x + 20433)

      = -36x² + 27x² + 303000x - 51000x - 20433

P(x) = -9x² + 252000x - 20433

To maximize the profit,

P'(x) = -18x + 252000 [Derivative of the function P(x)]

P'(x) = 0

-18x + 252000 = 0

18x = 252000

x = 14000

Therefore, for the maximum profit company has to produce and sell 14000 phones.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

He needed to travel a total of 210 miles

He had already traveled 125 miles on bus

And he traveled the rest of the length on the train

If we want to find the distance he traveled on train we simply subtract total distance by distance traveled on bus

So distance traveled on train = 210 - 125 = 85
