Identify the interval(s) on which the function y = -x2 + 5x + 14 is positive.

A.) X < -2 and x > 7
B.) X > 2 and x < -7
C.) -7 < x < 2
D.) -2 < x < 7

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

[tex]y=-x^2+5x+14[/tex]

To find:

The interval on which the given function is positive.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]y=-x^2+5x+14[/tex]

Splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]y=-x^2+7x-2x+14[/tex]

[tex]y=-x(x-7)-2(x-7)[/tex]

[tex]y=(x-7)(-x-2)[/tex]

[tex]y=-(x-7)(x+2)[/tex]

Using zero product property, we get

[tex]x-7=0\text{ and }x+2=0[/tex]

[tex]x=7\text{ and }x=-2[/tex]

-2 and 7 divide the number line is three interval.

Interval             Signs of [tex]y=-(x-7)(x+2)[/tex]         Result

(-∞,-2)                             (-)(-)(-)                           Negative    

(-2,7)                              (-)(-)(+)                           Positive    

(7,∞)                               (-)(+)(+)                          Negative    

So, the function is positive for the interval (-2,7), i.e., -2 < x < 7.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

The given question is incomplete

Here are some letters and what they represent. All costs are in dollars.

m represents the cost of a main dish.

n represents the number of side dishes.

s represents the cost of a side dish.

t represents the total cost of a meal.

Discuss with a partner: What does each equation mean in this situation? a. a.  m = 7.50

b. m = s + 4.50

c . ns = 6

d. m + ns = t

2. Write a new equation that could be true in this situation.

Answer:

t = 3m -n(s+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information we can describe the value of each letters

using a and b

we have m = 7.50 and  m = s + 4.50

        7.50 = s + 4.50

         s = 3

substitute s in c, we get

ns =  6n = 6/3 = 2

using equation d we have

m + ns = t7.50 + 6 = tt = 13.50

so we an equation using the above data

t +ns = 3m - n

t = 3m -n(s+1)

The equation of the line in this graph is y = ____x + ____.

Answers

Answer:

y=3/2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in y=mx+b format. m is the slope, or steepness of the line, while b is the y intercept (where the line crosses with the y axis).

The given line shows the y intercept; it's 3.

To find the slope, use this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1

Pick any two points and plug them into the equation. For example, use (0,3) (y intercept) and (-2, 0) (x intercept.)

now,

3-0/0-(-2)

3/2

the slope is 3/2.

Now, the line is

y=3/2x+3.

Alexandra has 36 coins valued at $6.00. She has only nickels and quarters. Which equation can be used to solve for the number of nickels, n?

0.05n + 0.25(36 – n) = 6
0.05n + 0.25(36 – n) = 36
n + 0.05 = 0.05n
n + (36 – n) = 36

Answers

Answer:

a- 0.05n + 0.25(36 – n) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

i just did it on edg

The value of each coin (Nickels and Quarters) determines their number in a money sum

The correct option that gives the equation that can be used to solve for the number of nickels, n, is option;

0.05·n + 0.25·(36 - n) = 6

Reason:

The given equation can be presented as follows;

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|}&\mathbf{Number}&\mathbf{Value}&\mathbf{Total \ value}\\&&&\\Nickels&n&0.05&0.05 \cdot n\\Quarters&36 - n&0.25 & 0.25 \cdot(36 - n)\\&&&\\\mathbf{Total}&36&&6\end{array}\right][/tex]

From the above table, we have;

0.05·n + 0.25·(36 - n) = 6

Solving the above equation gives;

0.05·n + 9 - 0.25·n = 6

-0.2·n = 6 - 9 = -3

[tex]n = \dfrac{3}{0.2} = 15[/tex]

Therefore;

The equation that can be used to solve for the number of nickels, n, is; 0.05·n + 0.25·(36 - n) = 6

Solve the system of equations.
2.5y + 3x = 27
5x – 2.5y = 5
What equation is the result of adding the two equations?
What is the solution to the system?

Answers

Answer:

8x = 32

x = 4

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5y + 3x = 27

5x – 2.5y = 5

_____________

8x = 32 (equation obtained after adding the two equations)

x = 32/8

x = 4

Plug x = 4 in 2.5y + 3x = 27

2.5y + 3*4 = 27

2.5y + 12 = 27

2.5y = 27 - 12

2.y5= 15

y = 15/2.5

y = 6

The equation results of adding the two equations is 8x = 32.

The solution to the system is (4, 6).

What are linear and non-linear functions?

A straight line on the coordinate plane is represented by a linear function. As an illustration, the equation y = 3x – 2 depicts a linear function because it is a straight line in the coordinate plane.

Any function whose graph is not a straight line is said to be nonlinear. Any curve other than a straight line can be a graph of it.

An example of a non-linear function is a quadratic function.

Given, A system of linear equations in variables 'x' and 'y'.

2.5y + 3x = 27...(i) and 5x - 2.5y = 5...(ii)'

Reaaranging eqn(i) we have

3x + 2.5y = 27...(iii)

Adding (ii) and (ii) we have,

8x = 32.       (As + 2.5y and - 2.5y cancels)

x = 32/8.

x = 4.

Putting the value of 'x' in eqn(i) we have,

2.5y + 12 = 27.

2.5y = 15.

y = 6.

So, The solution to the system is (4, 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the determinant of a 3x3 matrix, you can use this method. (See picture.)

Start with the first number in the top row, and block off the row and column.  A 2x2 matrix will be left.  Find the determinant of this 2x2 matrix, and multiply it by the number in the top row.

Repeat for the other two numbers in the top row.  Add the first result, subtract the second, and add the third.

det A = -2 [(3)(-5) − (a)(0)] − 2 [(0)(-5) − (a)(0)] + b [(0)(0) − (3)(0)]

det A = -2 (3)(-5) − 0 + 0

det A = 30
