Step-by-step explanation:
1. The function [tex]f(x) = -x^2-2x + 3[/tex] represents the amount of profit Bill makes per toy when he increases or decreases the price of his handmade toys.
The graph of this function is a parabola. The maximum profit is at the vertex of the parabola.
Find the vertex:
[tex]x_v=\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-(-2)}{2\cdot (-1)}=-1\\ \\y_v=f(x_v)=f(1)=-(-1)^2-2\cdot (-1)+3=-1+2+3=-1+5=4[/tex]
This means that decrease of 1 money unit (dollar, cent, euro,...) will give Bill the maximum profit of 4 money units (dollars, cents, euros,...)
2. The height, in feet, of the pebble over time is modeled by the equation [tex]y = -16x^2 + 32x + 80.[/tex]
The maximum height of the pebble is at parabola's vertex.
Find the vertex:
[tex]x_v=\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-32}{2\cdot (-16)}=1\\ \\y_v=-16\cdot 1^2+32\cdot 1+80=-16+32+80=96[/tex]
Thus, the maximum height the pebble can reach is 96 feet.
3. First, reflect across the x-axis the graph of the parent function [tex]f(x)=x^2.[/tex] The reflection across the x-axis will give us the function [tex]h(x)=-x^2[/tex]
Now, translate this function left 4 units and down 2 units to form the graph of g(x):
[tex]g(x)=-(x+4)^2-2[/tex]
Open the brackets:
[tex]g(x)=-(x^2+8x+16)-2=-x^2-8x-16-2=-x^2-8x-18[/tex]
Hence,
[tex]\bf{g(x)=-x^2-8x-18}[/tex]
4. The shape of the inside of a glass follows a parabola with the function [tex]f(x) = x^2 + 6x + 9.[/tex]
The vertex of the parabola represents the bottom of the inside of the glass. Find the vertex of the parabola:
[tex]x_v=\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-6}{2\cdot 1}=-3\\ \\y_v=(-3)^2+6\cdot (-3)+9=9-18+9=0[/tex]
So, point (-3,0) represents the bottom of the inside of the glass.
5. The equation y = −4.9x2 + 14 represents the height y in meters of a rock dropped off a bridge over time x in seconds.
The graph of the function is attached.
6. First, reflect across the x-axis the graph of the parent function [tex]f(x)=x^2.[/tex] The reflection across the x-axis will give us the function [tex]h(x)=-x^2[/tex]
Now, translate this function right 5 units and up 1 unit to form the graph of g(x):
[tex]g(x)=-(x-5)^2+1[/tex]
Open the brackets:
[tex]g(x)=-(x^2-10x+25)+1=-x^2+10x-25+1=-x^2+10x-24[/tex]
Hence,
[tex]\bf{g(x)=-x^2+10x-24}[/tex]
