I'm stuck on a question for math. Please help. Not sure where I'm going wrong.
What is the question? :)
I am also stuck on the same, as I am not able to see the question.. :P
f(x) = -16x2 + 22x + 3 Part A: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of the f(x)? Show your work. (2 points) Part B: Is the vertex of the graph of f(x) going to be a maximum or minimum? What are the coordinates of the vertex? Justify your answers and show your work. (3 points) Part C: What are the steps you would use to graph f(x)? Justify that you can use the answers obtained in Part A and Part B to draw the graph. (5 points) This is the question. When I find the x-intercepts I get 3/2 and -1/8. Not sure if this is correct. I also get 11/16 for part of the vertex
can you do the square method?
\(x\) intercept we ca find by solving: \(16x^2 - 22x - 3 = 0\)
Ok, you would have to factor it out, right?
yes your solutions are right..
For \(x\) intercept I said..
\(x = 1.5\) and \(x = -0.125\)
The same as you have done...
Ok. Thanks for the reassurance, this is the first time I have gotten a decimal answer. For the vertex you would use \[-b \div 2a\] right?
Vertex is a point.. The formula you have given is for finding x-coordinate of your vertex..
Yes. Then you plug that back into the original equation for x and get the y, right?
and yes 11/16 is x-coordinate of vertex, and now you have to find \(y\)..
Good... :)
Ok thanks. I was thrown off by the decimal answers. Thanks for the help :) I got 10.56 (10.5625) for the Y.
You can write it as : \(\frac{675}{64}\)

Ok. Thanks again. That was all I needed. The C part was there because I wrote the whole equation.
And thanks for the link :)
Fill your equation there, you will get all details.. :)
Ok thanks again.
you are welcome dear.. And one more thing remains that I want to tell you.. Wait..
Ok...
What is your favorite color?
Ehh... Probably purple, why?
\[\huge \color{purple}{\textsf{Welcome To Openstudy } \ddot \smile}\]
Good Luck, keep practicing.... :)
Haha thanks. I literally just joined XD.
I will
:)
You must.. :)
