Why might algebra tiles not be a good tool to use to factor x2 + 18x + 80? Explain.

Answers

Algebra tiles would not be a good tool to use to factor the trinomial because you would need to drag an x-squared tile, 18 x-tiles, and 80 plus tiles. That is a total of 99 tiles. It would take a lot of time to drag that many tiles on the board and there might not be enough space to hold all of them. You would also need to determine how to arrange all those tiles to make a rectangle. Since 80 is a multiple of 10, you might recognize that 10 and 8 are the factors that add to 18, which would give you the values to use in the X method.

Algebra tiles are used to factorize a polynomial. The factorization of the given trinomial will be very difficult to perform using the algebra tiles due to the large number of tiles used.

The given quadratic polynomial or trinomial is [tex]x^2 + 18x + 80[/tex].

The algebra tiles required to solve the given trinomial are,

1 x-squared tile.18 x-tiles.80 unit tiles.

So, the total number of times required will be 1+18+80 or 99 tiles.

Now, it will be very difficult to drag or arrange so many tiles on the board. Also, the space could be a problem in this case.

Therefore, the factorization of the given trinomial will be very difficult to perform using the algebra tiles due to a large number of tiles used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data  

x  1   2  3  4  5  

f(x)  243  81  27  9  3

The rate of change between the second and the first points is computed as  

(f(x2) - f(x1))/(x2 -x1) =  (81 - 243)/(2-1) = -162

Analogously, between 3rd and 2nd points and between  4th and 3rd points:

Part A: Determine the vertex. What does this calculation mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)

Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem? (5 points

please help

Answers

A.

f is a quadratic function, which means it's graph is a parabola.

Notice that the coefficient of [tex] x^{2} [/tex] is negative, so the parabola opens downwards.

the x-coordinate of a parabola is always determined by the formula: [tex] -\frac{b}{2a} [/tex]

where a is coefficient of the [tex] x^{2} [/tex] term, and b is the coefficient of the x term.

Thus, x-coordinate of the vertex of the graph of f is :

[tex]-\frac{b}{2a}=-\frac{16}{2(-1)}=8[/tex]

the y-coordinate of the vertex is f(8)=-8*8+16*8-60=4.

The vertex is (8, 4).

This means that the maximum daily profit is when exactly 8 candles are sold.

B.

The x-intercepts are the values of x such that f(x)=0,

so to find these values we solve:

[tex]- x^{2} +16x-60=0[/tex]


[tex]x^{2}-16x+60=0[/tex]

complete the square:

[tex]x^{2}-2*8x+64-64+60=0[/tex]

[tex](x-8)^{2}-4=0[/tex]

[tex](x-8)^{2}= 2^{2} [/tex]

so x-8=2      or x-8=-2

the roots are x=10 and  x=6, are the roots.

This means that when the shop sells exactly 6 or 10 candles, it makes no profit.



Final answer:

The vertex of the profit function f(x) = -x^2 + 16x - 60 is (8, 4), meaning the maximum profit is $4 when 8 candles are sold. The x-intercepts are (6,0) and (10,0), indicating zero profit when either 6 or 10 candles are sold.

Explanation:

The function given is a quadratic equation of the form f(x) = ax2 + bx + c, where the constants are a = -1, b = 16, and c = -60. To find the vertex of the parabola, we can use the formula -b/(2a) for the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Calculate the x-coordinate of the vertex: x = -b/(2a) = -16/(2 * -1) = 8.

Substitute x = 8 into the original function to find the y-coordinate: f(8) = -(8)2 + 16(8) - 60 = -64 + 128 - 60 = 4.

The vertex is at the point (8, 4). In the context of the problem, this point represents the maximum daily profit of $4, which occurs when 8 candles are sold.

To determine the x-intercepts, we set f(x) to zero and solve for x, which represents the number of candles sold when the profit is zero.

Set the function equal to zero and solve for x: 0 = -x2 + 16x - 60.

Apply the quadratic formula x = [-b ± sqrt(b2 - 4ac)]/(2a) to find the x-intercepts. In this case, a = -1, b = 16, and c = -60.

Calculate the discriminant, sqrt(162 - 4(-1)(-60)) = sqrt(256 - 240) = sqrt(16) = 4.

Find the two x-intercepts: x = [16 ± 4]/(2 * -1) which yields x = 6 and x = 10.

The x-intercepts (6,0) and (10,0) indicate the number of candles sold at which the profit would be zero, specifically at 6 and at 10 candles sold.

Answers

vertex for is

y = a(x - h)^2 + k  where (h,k) is the vertex.

so we have

y = a(x - (-2)^2 - 20
y = a(x + 2)^2 - 20

y intercept is (0,-12) so:-

-12 =  a(2)^2 - 20
4a = 8
a = 2

y = 2(x + 2)^2 - 20    is the parabola in vertex form  Convert to standard form:-

y = 2(x^2 + 4x + 4) - 20
y = 2x^2 + 8x -12  is the answer
Final answer:

The equation of the parabola with a vertex at (-2, -20) and a y-intercept at (0, -12) is y = 2x^2 + 8x - 12.

Explanation:

To find the equation of the parabola, we can use the vertex form of a parabola's equation, which is y = a(x - h)^2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola, and 'a' is a coefficient that determines the parabola's width and direction. Since we have the vertex (-2, -20) and the y-intercept (0, -12), we can plug in these values to solve for 'a':

y = a(x - (-2))^2 - 20

Using the y-intercept:

-12 = a(0 - (-2))^2 - 20

-12 = 4a - 20

8 = 4a

a = 2

The equation of the parabola is therefore:

y = 2(x + 2)^2 - 20

Expanding the equation:

y = 2(x^2 + 4x + 4) - 20

y = 2x^2 + 8x + 8 - 20

y = 2x^2 + 8x - 12

The final quadratic equation of the parabola is:

y = 2x^2 + 8x - 12

Given that

The area of the right triangle shown is 24 square feet.

We have to determine

Which equations can be used to find the lengths of the legs of the triangle?

According to the question

From the given figure the base of the triangle is x.

And the height of the triangle is (x+2).

What is the area of a triangle?

The area of the triangle is given by half the product of the height and base.

[tex]\rm Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times base \times height\\ [/tex]

Substitute all the values in the formula;

[tex]\rm Area \ of \ right \ triangle= \dfrac{1}{2} \times base \times height\\ \\ \rm 24= \dfrac{1}{2} \times x \times (x+2)\\\\ \rm 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24[/tex]

The equation can be used to find the lengths of the legs of the triangle is [tex]\rm 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24[/tex].

Hence, the equation can be used to find the lengths of the legs of the triangle is [tex]\rm 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24[/tex].

Julio paid 1.3 times his normal hourly rate for each he works over 31 hours in a week. Last week he worked 35 hours and earned $448.88. What is julios normal hourly rate ?

Answers

Hi, Globabypatricia! :)

All the time worked past 31 hours gets paid 1.3 times.
He worked 4 hours at such a rate.

31+4(1.3)
31+5.2
=36.2
Paid as if he worked 36.2 at a normal rate. 

To find his normal wage, divide 448.88 by 36.2
448.88/36.2
=12.40

His normal wage is $12.40.

To check:
12.40*31=384.40
12.40*1.3=16.12
16.12*4=64.48

384.40+64.48
=$448.88

Hope this helps.

Good question


Let his hourly rate is x

then:

31x + (35-31)*1.3x = 448.88

solve for x:

31 x + 5.2x = 448.88

36.2 x =448.88

x = 12.4$

not fair hourly rate by the way ;)

A new machine can make 10,000 aluminum cans three times faster than an older machine. with both machines working, 10,000 cans can be made in 9 hours. how long would it take the new machine, working alone, to make the 10,000 cans?

Answers

it takes at least 12 hours for the newer machine to make 10,000 cans

Since the new machine is three times faster, it takes (12 hours) / 3 = 4 hours for the new machine to make 10,000 cans alone.

Let's denote the time it takes the older machine to make 10,000 cans as "t" hours.

The new machine can make 10,000 cans three times faster than the older machine, which means it takes "t/3" hours for the new machine to make 10,000 cans.

When both machines are working together, they can make 10,000 cans in 9 hours.

Now, we can set up an equation based on the work rates of the two machines:

Work rate of the older machine + Work rate of the new machine = Combined work rate

The work rate is the amount of work (number of cans made) per unit of time (hours).

For the older machine:

Work rate of the older machine = 10,000 cans / t hours

For the new machine:

Work rate of the new machine = 10,000 cans / (t/3) hours

Combined work rate when both machines work together:

Combined work rate = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Now, the equation becomes:

10,000 cans / t hours + 10,000 cans / (t/3) hours = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

To solve for "t," we can start by finding a common denominator for the fractions on the left side of the equation:

t/3 is the same as (1/3)t. So the equation becomes:

10,000 cans / t hours + 10,000 cans / (1/3)t hours = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Now, to combine the fractions, we find the common denominator, which is 3t:

(3t * 10,000 cans) / (3t * t hours) + (t * 10,000 cans) / (3t * t hours) = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

(30,000t + 10,000t) / (3t^2 hours) = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Combine the terms on the left side of the equation:

40,000t / (3t^2 hours) = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Now, cross-multiply to solve for "t":

40,000t * 9 hours = 10,000 cans * 3t^2 hours

360,000t hours = 30,000t^2 hours

Now, rearrange the equation:

30,000t^2 - 360,000t hours = 0

Divide by 30,000t to simplify the equation:

t - 12 = 0

Now, solve for "t":

t = 12 hours

Therefore, it takes the older machine 12 hours to make 10,000 cans.

The answer is the last choice. It says the triangle is dilated by a scale factor of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]. To check this we can just look at the side lengths if the triangles. [tex]AB[/tex] has a length of 8 by looking at the graph, and [tex]A'B'[/tex] has a length of 2 from the graph too. So when we put those lengths[tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex] into a fraction, it simplifies to [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]. The only answer that says this is the last answer choice.
