Help please!!!!!! Giving medals! Write x2 - 8x + 13 = 0 in the form (x - a)2 = b, where a and b are integers. (x - 4)2 = 3 (x - 3)2 = 2 (x - 2)2 = 1 (x - 1)2 = 4
a
(x - 4)^2 = 3
Thank you :) do you mind helping me with another question?
@CGGURUMANJUNATH
sure .
Ok thanks :) The function f(x) = -x^2 - 9x + 10 shows the relationship between the vertical distance of a diver from a pool's surface f(x), in feet, and the horizontal distance x, in feet, of a diver from the diving board. What is a zero of f(x) and what does it represent? x = 1; the diver jumps in the pool at 1 foot per second x = 10; the diver jumps in the pool at 10 feet per second x = 1; the diver hits the water 1 foot away horizontally from the board x = 10; the diver hits the water 10 feet away horizontally from the board
zero of a function is f(0) =10
So its either B or D?
ya.
D
Alright, thanks! Can you help me with one more?
SURE.GO AHEAD.
What are the zeroes of f(x) = x^2 - x - 2? x = -2, 1 x = 2, -1 x = -2, -1 x = 2, 1 A polynomial function can be written as (x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7). What are the x-intercepts of the graph of this function? (1, 0), (4, 0), (7, 0) (-1, 0), (-4, 0), (-7, 0) (1, 0), (4, 0), (-7, 0) (-1, 0), (-4, 0), (7, 0)
@CGGURUMANJUNATH
(-1, 0), (-4, 0), (7, 0)
