If 8p = -2X2 - 100, which of the following could X possibly be?
HI!!
is it \[8p=-2x^2-100\]?
Yes mam!
so i guess your job is to solve for \(x\) right?
Thanks for the help @misty1212 greatly appreciate it. And yes find X
maybe start with \[8p+100=-2x^2\] then divide by \(-2\) and get \[-4p-50=x^2\]
last step would be to take the square root and get \[x=\pm\sqrt{-4p-50}\]
That's not a answer choice :9 This is so confusing.
can you post a screen shot?
or give the choices?
x = -8p - 100 over 2
How did you get that!?
it it wrong we need a screen shot or sommat
lol the idiots did not bother to divide by 2!!!
go with C
Thanks!!! Few more?
sure i hope they get better
Solve 3x2 + x + 10 = 0. Round solutions to the nearest hundredth. I got no real solutions but idk.
no real solution looks good
shes right
Thanks @LesTwins
Derek kicks a soccer ball off the ground and in the air, with an initial velocity of 31 feet per second. Using the formula H(t) = -16t2 + vt + s, what is the maximum height the soccer ball reaches?
is it really 31, or could it be 32?
idk -_- @satellite73
i am asking if you made a typo is all it would be tons easier if it was "initial velocity of 32" instead of "31"
31
ok then if it is 31 it is 31 first coordinate of the vertex of \(y=ax^2+bx+c\) is \(-\frac{b}{2a}\) which, in your case, is \[-\frac{31}{2\times( -16)}=\frac{31}{32}\]
if it was initial velocity of 32 you would get a 1, which would be a lot easier to deal with, but whatever now you have to compute \[h(\frac{31}{32})\]
i would use a calculator http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=-16%2831%2F32%29%5E2%2B31%2831%2F32%29
at max height H(t)=0 -32t+v=0 t=v/32 t=31/32 H(31/32)=-16(31/32)^2+31*31/32 = 15
tahnks <3
Last one A toy rocket was launched from the ground. The function f(x) = -16x2 + 128x shows the height of the rocket f(x), in feet, from the ground at time x seconds. What is the axis of symmetry of the graph of f(x), and what does it represent?
