Being specific,name 3 ways that a parabola changes with different types of "a" values

1 answer:

4 0

When a is between 0 and 1, the parabola gets wider, when it is greater than 1, it gets narrower, and when it is less than 0 it is reflected across the x-axis

In ΔMNO, the measure of ∠O=90°, ON = 65, MO = 72, and NM = 97. What is the value of the tangent of ∠M to the nearest hundredth?

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Therefore the value of tangent of ∠ $M$ is $42$ °.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

In Δ $MNO$ , ∠ $O=90$ °, $ON=65,$ $MO=72,$ and $NM=97.$

and we have to find the value of tangent of ∠ $M.$

Diagram of the given triangle is shown below:

Now,

Δ $MNO$ is a right angle triangle, so we can use all the trigonometric ratio.

$sin\alpha =\frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}$

$cos\alpha =\frac{Base}{Hypotenuse}$

$tan\alpha =\frac{sin\alpha }{cos\alpha }$ = $\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

tangent of ∠ $M$ = $\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

= $\frac{ON}{MO}$

= $\frac{65}{72}$

= $0.90278$

∴∠ $M$ = $tan^{-1} (0.90278)$

= $42.0750$ ° ≅ $42$ °

Therefore the value of tangent of ∠ $M$ is $42$ °.

Mrs Wright spent 2/9 of her paycheck on food and 1/3 on rent. She spent 1/4 of the remainder on transportation. She had $210 lef

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Mrs. Wright's paycheck is $630

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Mrs. Wright's paycheck.

Mrs. Wright spent 2/9 of her paycheck on food. This means that the amount of money spent on food is 2/9 × x = 2x/9

She spent 1/3 on rent. This means that the amount spent on rent is

1/3 ×x x = x/3

Amount she spent on food and rent is x/3 + 2x/9 =3x + 2x /9

= 5x/9

The remainder is her pay check - the amount that she spent on food and rent. It becomes

x - 5x/9 = (9x- 5x)/9 = 4x/9

She spent 1/4 of the remainder on transportation. It means that she spent 1/4 × 4x/9 = x /9 on transportation.

Amount left = 4x /9 - x/9= 3x/9

She had $210 left. Therefore,

210 = 3x/9

3x = 9×210 = 1890

x = 1890/3

x = $630

Jake made a total of 7 copies at a copy shop, with some being black-and-white copies and some being color copies. Black-and-whit

Arada [10]

Jake spent a total of 70 cents.
b = black-and-white = 8 cents
c = color = 15 cents

70 = 8b + 15c

he made a total of 7 copies
b + c = 7

system of equation:
70 = 8b + 15c
b + c = 7

--------------------------

b + c = 7
b + c (-c) = 7 (-c)
b = 7 - c

plug in 7 - c for b

70 = 8(7 - c) + 15c
Distribute the 8 to both 7 and - c (distributive property)

70 = 56 - 8c + 15c
Simplify like terms

70 = 56 - 8c + 15c
70 = 56 + 7c

Isolate the c, do the opposite of PEMDAS: Subtract 56 from both sides

70 (-56) = 56 (-56) + 7c
14 = 7c

divide 7 from both sides to isolate the c

14 = 7c
14/7 = 7c/7
c = 14/7
c = 2

c = 2
---------------

Now that you know what c equals (c = 2), plug in 2 for c in one of the equations.
b + c = 7
c = 2
b + (2) = 7
Find b by isolating it. subtract 2 from both sides
b + 2 = 7
b + 2 (-2) = 7 (-2)
b = 7 - 2
b = 5

Jake made 5 black-and-white copies, and 2 color copies

hope this helps

Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?

Marrrta [24]

The inverse of the the function above is y = $\sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}$

In order to find the inverse of any function, you need to switch the x and y values. Once you've done that, you need to solve for the new y value. The resulting equation will be your inverse. The work for this one is below.

y = 2x^2 - 8 ----> Switch the terms

x = 2y^2 - 8 ----> Add 8 to both sides.

x + 8 = 2y^2 ----> Divide both sides by 2.

$\frac{x+8}{2}$ = y^2 ----> Now take the square root of both sides.

$\sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}$ = y

What's left is your inverse. You can change the order so that it is in a more acceptable form.

y = $\sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}$

What is the binomial expansion of (x + 2)4? x4 + 4x3 + 6x2 + 4x + 1 8x3 + 24x2 + 32x x4 + 8x3 + 24x2 + 32x + 16 2x4 + 8x3 + 12x2

Margaret [11]

Answer-

$\boxed{\boxed{(x+2)^4=x^4+8x^3+24x^2+32x+16}}$

Solution-

Given expression is $(x+2)^4$

Applying Binomial Theorem

$\left(a+b\right)^n=\sum _{i=0}^n\binom{n}{i}a^{\left(n-i\right)}b^i$

Here,

a = x, b = 2 and n = 4

So,

$\left(x+2\right)^4=\sum _{i=0}^4\binom{4}{i}x^{\left(4-i\right)}\cdot \:2^i$

Expanding the summation

$=\dfrac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}x^4\cdot \:2^0+\dfrac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}x^3\cdot \:2^1+\dfrac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}x^2\cdot \:2^2+\dfrac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}x^1\cdot \:2^3+\dfrac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}x^0\cdot \:2^4$

$=\dfrac{4!}{0!\left(4\right)!}x^4\cdot \:2^0+\dfrac{4!}{1!\left(3\right)!}x^3\cdot \:2^1+\dfrac{4!}{2!\left(2\right)!}x^2\cdot \:2^2+\dfrac{4!}{3!\left(1\right)!}x^1\cdot \:2^3+\dfrac{4!}{4!\left(0\right)!}x^0\cdot \:2^4$

$=1\cdot x^4\cdot \:1+4\cdot x^3\cdot \:2+6x^2\cdot \:4+4\cdot x\cdot \:8+1\cdot 1\cdot \:16$

$=x^4+8x^3+24x^2+32x+16$
