Answer 1

Answer:

[tex](x-2)^2-30[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

use the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] to find the values of a, b, and c.

[tex]a=1, b= -4, c = -26[/tex]

consider the vertex form of a parabola

[tex]a(x+d)^2+e[/tex]

substitute the values of a and b into the formula [tex]d=\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]d=\frac{4}{2(1)}[/tex]

simplify the right side.

find the value of e using the formula [tex]e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\textsf{a)} \quad y=(x+1)^2-4[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{b)} \quad y=2(x-4)^2-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form of a parabola:  [tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

(where (h, k) is the vertex and [tex]a[/tex] is some constant)

Part aVertex = (-1, -4)Point on parabola = (1, 0)

Substitute the vertex into the formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies y &=a(x-(-1))^2-4\\y & =a(x+1)^2-4\end{aligned}[/tex]

Substitute the point (1, 0) into the formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies a(1+1)^2-4&=0\\4a-4&=0\\4a &=4\\a &=1\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the parabola in vertex form is:

[tex]y=(x+1)^2-4[/tex]

Part bVertex = (4, -2)Point on parabola = (6, 6)

Substitute the vertex into the formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies y &=a(x-4)^2+(-2)\\y & =a(x-4)^2-2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Substitute the point (6, 6) into the formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies a(6-4)^2-2&=6\\4a-2 & =6\\4a &=8\\a &=2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the parabola in vertex form is:

[tex]y=2(x-4)^2-2[/tex]

Vertex at (-1,-4)Passes through (1,0)

Find a

a(x-h)²+k=ya(1+1)²-4=04a-4=04a=4a=1

So

Vertex form

y=(x+1)²-4

(h,k)=(4,-2)passes through (6,6)

The circumference of a circle is 25 pi cm . what is the area, in square centimeters? express your answer in terms of pi .

Answers

The area of the circle is the amount of space it occupies, and the area of the circle is 156.25π

How to determine the area?

The circumference, C is given as:

C = 25π

Start by calculating the radius using:

C = 2πr

So, we have:

2πr = 25π

Solve for r

r = 12.5

The area is then calculated using:

A = πr²

So, we have:

A = π * 12.5²

Evaluate

A = 156.25π

A certain shade of blue paint is made by mixing 1/2 of a quart of blue paint with 1/8 of a quart of white paint.

How much white paint would you need to mix with 2 2/3 quarts of blue paint to make the same shade of paint?

Explain the error.

Calculate the correct solution.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/9? maybe because 1/8 is 6 times bigger than 1/2, so if you add 6 to 2 2/3 it would be 2 2/9?

You would need 1/4 white paint to mix with 2 2/3 quarts of blue paint to make the same shade of paint.

What is Ratio?

The ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed as one divided by the other.

The amounts of each type of paint as fractions of the total amount of paint: 1/2 quart of blue paint is 1/(1+1/2) = 2/4 = 1/2 of the total amount of paint, and 1/8 quart of white paint is 1/(1+1/2+1/8) = 1/8 of the total amount of paint.

So the ratio of blue paint to white paint in the original mixture is 1/2 to 1/8, or 4 to 1. To make the same shade of paint with 2 2/3 quarts of blue paint, we need to use the same ratio of blue paint to white paint.

So we need 1/4 as much white paint as blue paint, which is (1/4) × 2 2/3 quarts = 2/3 quart of white paint.

The error in the original solution was not correctly finding the ratio of blue paint to white paint in the original mixture, which is necessary to determine the correct amount of white paint to mix with a different amount of blue paint to create the same shade.

The Correct option is (C) and (E)

What is Linear equation in one variable?

A linear equation is an equation of a straight line, written in one variable. The only power of the variable is 1. Linear equations in one variable may take the form ax+ b = 0.

The given equation is:− 3 ( x − 6 ) + 12 x − ( 8 x + 3 ) .

= -3x+18 + 12 x -8x-3

=x +15

The corresponding equation to the above equation is:

C. x+15

D. (12 x - 11x) + (3-18)

= x-15

E. (12 x - 11x) + (18-3)

= x+15

F. (12 x - 11x) + (-6+3)

= x-3

As from the above it can be seen that the equation which equivalent to given expression − 3 ( x − 6 ) + 12 x − ( 8 x + 3 ) . is
