How do you find zeros of a quadratic function?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

You find the zeros of a quadratic functions by factoring the function. And once you have factored the function you take the factors and flip the signs. For example, you have the factors (x-4) and (x+3).

Drop the parentheses and make x equal to zero.

x - 4 = 0                                        x - 3 = 0

Solve it like a one step equation.

x - 4 = 0                        x - 3 = 0

 + 4    +4                         +3    +3

= 4                                    = 3

Then turn into coordinates.

 x y         x y

(4,0)       (3,0)

Note that the zero's are the x-intercepts. I labeled x above the first part of the coordinate to show where the x-intercepts should and the same with the y.

Answers

y = 3/4x +b
5= 3/4*4 + b
5=3+b
b=2
y=3/4x+2

The equation of line is y = ( 3/4 )x + 2 and the slope is m = 3/4

What is an Equation of a line?

The equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

And y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y = y-coordinate of second point

y₁ = y-coordinate of point one

m = slope

x = x-coordinate of second point

x₁ = x-coordinate of point one

The slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Given data ,

Let the equation of line be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Let the first point be P ( 4 , 5 )

Now , the slope of the line is m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Slope m = 3/4

And , equation of line is y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

On simplifying , we get

y - 5 = ( 3/4 ) ( x - 4 )

y - 5 = ( 3/4 )x - 3

Adding 5 on both sides , we get

y = ( 3/4 )x + 2

Hence , the equation of line is y = ( 3/4 )x + 2

How many times greater is the probability of selecting one blue marble and then one red marble when you do not replace the first marble before selecting the second marble than when you do replace the first marble before selecting the second marble? Express the answer as a fraction.

Answers

Answer:

Scenario 1: w/o replacement: P(blue, then red) = (7/12)(3/11) = 7/44

Scenario 2: w/ replacement:  P(blue, then red) = (7/12)(3/12) = 7/48

Combine like terms in 3x + 2y + 2x + 4y + 1

Answers

Answer: 5x+6y+1 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation: to combine like terms that have to have the same variable so you can add them so for example you have 3x+2x which is equal to 5x then 2y+4y which is = to 6y and you also have 1 that isn't adding to anything because the others have variables

Answer:

5x + 6y + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You are also simplifing and collecting the like terms. 3x + 2x = 5x. So that goes first as it appears first in the equation. Secondly, 2y + 4y = 6y, and that adds on to the previous answer. So far we have 5x + 6y. Now just add te 1, as it has no like value.

Only 1 is needed, but doing both would be godly <33

Answers

Answer:

1. y = 4x - 27

2. y = -4x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope. So, the slope of the line we are looking for needs to be 4. We can start by writing a point-slope equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We can substitute the values we have, the point we are using is (8, 5) because it needs to be on the line:

y - 5 = 4(x - 8)

We can distribute:

y - 5 = 4x - 32

y = 4x - 27

We are not given the slope-intercept form, so we must divide both sides by two to get it:

y = 1/4 x + 8

A perpendicular line has the slope that is the negative reciprocal of the one that is given. So, the slope of the line would be - 4. We can start by writing a point-slope equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We can substitute the values we have, the point we are using is (-5, 5) because it needs to be on the line:

y - 5 = -4(x + 5)

We can distribute:

y - 5 = -4x - 20

y = -4x - 15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative out front only tells us which way the parabola will open. That means that the first one will open upside down, since it's got a negative out front. The value of the number that serves as the leading coefficient (the number stuck to the x-squared) determines how steep or wide-open the parabola's shape is. The leading coefficient in the first one is a 1, so it opens up exactly as wide as its parent graph does. The leading coefficient in the second one, a 2, means that the parabola will be skinnier or narrower than its parent. If the leading coefficient is greater than 1, the parabola will be narrower than its parent; if the leading coefficient is greater than 0 but less than 1, the parabola will open wider than its parent.

Each quarter the marketing manager of a retail store divides customers into two classes based on their purchase behavior in the previous quarter. Denote the classes as L for low and H for high. The manager wishes to determine to which classes of customers he should send quarterly catalogs. The cost of sending a catalog is $15 per customer and the expected purchase depends on the customers class and the managers action. If a customer is in class L and receives a catalog, then the expected purchase in the current quarter is $20, and if a class L customer does not receive a catalog his expected purchase is $10. If a customer is in class H and receives a catalog, then his expected purchase is $50, and if a class H customer does not receive a catalog his expected purchase is $25. The decision whether or not to send a catalog to a customer also affects the customer's classification in the subsequent quarter. If a customer is class L at the start of the present quarter, then the probability he is in class L at the subsequent quarter is 0.3 if he receives a catalog and 0.5 if he does not. If a customer is class H in the current period, then the probability that he remains in class H in the subsequent period is 0.8 if he receives a catalog and 0.4 if he does not.
