The graph of f(x) = ax^2 opens upward and is narrower than the graph of g(x) = x^2 . Which of the following could be the value of a?

A. -0.5

B. 6

C. 0.25

D. -2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are

[tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex]

It is given that the graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] opens upward and is narrower than the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex].  

Graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] opens upward, it means coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] must be positive.

Graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] is narrower than the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex], it means coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] must lies between 0 to 1, i.e., [tex]0<|a|<1[/tex].

From the given options, only 0.25 is a positive number whose absolute value lies in between 0 to 1.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer 2

Following are the solution to the graph function:

Given:

Graph function:

[tex]\to f(x)=ax^2\\\\\to g(x)=x^2\\\\[/tex]

Solution:

It is assumed that its graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] is narrower more expands upwards than the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex].The graph of [tex]f(x)= ax^2[/tex] expands upward, suggesting that the [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex] coefficient must be positive.Since the graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] is thinner than that of the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex], it implies that the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex]  has to be between 0 to 1, i.e. [tex]0<|a| <1.[/tex] .Only 0.25 is a positive number with just an absolute value between 0 and 1 among the available alternatives.

Therefore, the final answer is "Option C".

Could someone explain why (-4)² is equal to 16 but -4² is equal to -16​

Answers

Answer:

It's all about the brackets.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we do (-4)^2, the brackets make it -4 x -4 and the two negatives make a positive of 16.

If we do -4^2, that means that the 4 is squared before putting the minus sign there so you have 4x4 = 16 then put the minus to get -16.

Hope this helps!

treviglaslibrary

Answer:

4^2= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because when you square something your are multiplying that number by itself. So in this case you must multiply 4 x 4 which is sixteen. Another example of this is 3^2 which is 9. In this case you must multiply 3 x 3 which is nine.

Michael started a savings account with $100. After 6 weeks, he had $140, and after 12 weeks, he had $260. What is the rate of change of money in his savings account per week?
this question looks easy but nothing makes sense to me second half didn't line up with my answer

Answers

Answer:

Rate of change of money in Michael's account will be $20 per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw a graph for the duration of investment on x-axis and amount in the account on y-axis, ordered pairs for both the conditions will be,

After 6 weeks, amount in the account = $140

Ordered pair : (6, 140)

After 12 weeks, amount in the account = $260

Ordered pair : (12, 260)

Rate of change in hi account per week = [tex]\frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}[/tex]

                                                                 = [tex]\frac{260-140}{12-6}[/tex]

                                                                 = [tex]\frac{120}{6}[/tex]

                                                                 = $20 per week

Therefore, rate of change of money in Michael's account will be $20 per week.

How do you find out a histograms least frequency interval

Answers

Answer:

Histograms are graphs of a distribution of data designed to show centering, dispersion (spread), and shape (relative frequency) of the data. Histograms can provide a visual display of large amounts of data that are difficult to understand in a tabular, or spreadsheet form.

They are used to understand how the output of a process relates to customer expectations (targets and specifications), and help answer the question: "Is the process capable of meeting customer requirements?"

To construct a histogram, the first step is to "bin" (or "bucket") the range of values—that is, divide the entire range of values into a series of intervals—and then count how many values fall into each interval. The bins are usually specified as consecutive, non-overlapping intervals of a variable.

Two sides of a parallelogram measure 60 centimeters and 40 centimeters. If one angle of the parallelogram measures 1320, find the
length of each diagonal.
a.about 86.4 cm and 54.2 cm
c.about 91.7 cm and 54.2 cm
b. about 91.7 cm and 44.6 cm
d. about 86.4 cm and 44.6 cm​

Answers

Answer:

  b. about 91.7 cm and 44.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of the diagonals can be found using the Law of Cosines.

Consider the triangle(s) formed by a diagonal. The two given sides will form the other two sides of the triangle, and the corner angles of the parallelogram will be the measure of the angle between those sides (opposite the diagonal).

For diagonal "d" and sides "a" and "b" and corner angle D, we have ...

  d² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(D)

The measure of angle D will either be the given 132°, or the supplement of that, 48°. We can use the fact that the cosines of an angle and its supplement are opposites. This means the diagonal measures will be ...

  d² = 60² +40² -2·60·40·cos(D) ≈ 5200 ±4800(0.66913)

  d² ≈ {1988.2, 8411.8}

  d ≈ {44.6, 91.7} . . . . centimeters

The diagonals are about 91.7 cm and 44.6 cm.

6860 =980 w

Divide each side by 980

6860/980 = w

7 = w

Answer:

35*28=6,860

980 = 6,860

-2( x ) - 7(y) =250 X
4( x) - (y) =140 X

Answers

Answer:

x = 41

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Systems of equations is,

-2x - 7y = -250 ------(1)

4x - y = 140 ------(2)

Equation (1) multiplied by 2 then added to equation (2)

  -4x -14y = -500

(+)   4x - y = 140  

          -15y = -360

             y = [tex]\frac{360}{15}[/tex]

            y = 24

by putting y = 24 in equation (2),

4x - 24 = 140

4x = 140 + 24

x = [tex]\frac{164}{4}[/tex]

x = 41

For x = 41 and y = 24 both the equations are true.

Equation (1),   -2(41) - 7(24) = -250  [True]

Equation (2),   4(41) - (24) = 140  [True]

A fruit vendor purchased 540 fruits in all for $150. He sold 15 dozens at 2 bananas a dollar, another 15 dozens at 3 bananas a
dollar and the remaining at 5 bananas a dollar. Find his loss or gain percentage. ( with explanation )

Answers

Answer:

First find how much bananas are in a dozen

15 x 12 = 180

Divide the amount by the amount of bananas per dollar to find profit

180 / 2 = $90

Do the same thing as before

15 x 12 = 180

180 / 3 = $60

Find how many bananas are left

180 + 180 = 360

540 - 360 = 180

Do the same as before

180 / 5 = $36

Add up all the money. 90 + 60 + 36 = 186

Subtract the cost

185 - 150 = 36

To find percentage increase

36 / 150 = 0.24 or 24% profit

Do 6,7 for 10 points.

Answers

Answer:

6. x = 3 7. x = 120 8. x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

the first question is x(-4) + 3 = -9

find the value of x :

-4x + 3 = -9

we can subtract 3 on both sides since we have a value of 3 on the left, which will cancel the value out.

-4x = -12

-4(3) = -12

therefore the answer to problem 6 is x=3

and for 7 :

x / 6 - 9 = 11

we can add 9 on both sides which will cancel it out;

x/6 = 20

120/6 = 20

therefore the answer to the question 7 is 120.

For problem 8 it says :

-3x -5 = 10

we can add 5 on both sides to get:

-3x = 15

-3(-5) = 15

therefore the answer to problem 8 is -5

[tex]y=-15[/tex]

Answer:

(4,3) (2,−3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 =2(−9+3x)+10

2(−9+3x)+10

x2 = −18+6x+10

x2=6x−8

x2−6x+8=0

We now have to find integers that find product is 8 and whose sum is −6

= -4 -2 we find this is set to 4 2 as x−4=0

Add 4 to both sides of the equation. x=4

Set the next factor equal to 0

x−2=0 Add 2 to both sides of the equation.x=2

Confirms and proves x = 4,  x = 2

We solve for y

2y+10=(4)2

2y+10=16

2y=16−10

2y = 6

y = 3

We rewrite and solve for y again

(2)^2=2y+10

2y+10=(2)*2

2y+10=4  

2y = 4(-10)

2y = -6

y= -3
