We are given the equation:
Step 2

Given,

end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 4
$a.$ Walter is talking about changing the given equation by multiplying it by a specific number which will result in an equation without decimals.

So, we will multiply the given equation by $2$.

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+2.5x-1.5&=0 \
2(x^{2}+2.5x-1.5&=0) \
2x^{2}+5x-3&=0 tag{1}\

$b.$ Now in order to solve the rewritten equation we will factor $(1)$,

$$
begin{align*}
2x^{2}+5x-3&=0 \
2x^{2}+6x-x-3&=0 \
2x(x+3)-1(x+3)&=0 \
(2x-1)(x+3)&=0\
x&=0.5,-3\
end{align*}
$$

Then, we will plot the graph for $(1)$.

Thus, we check the obtained solutions,

By putting $x$ as $(-3)$ in $(1)$,

$$
begin{align*}
2x^{2}+5x-3&=0\
2(-3)^{2}+5(-3)-3&=0 \
2(9)-15-3&=0\
18-18&=0\
0&=0\
end{align*}
$$

By putting $x$ as negative $(0.5)$ in $(1)$,

$$
begin{align*}
2x^{2}+5x-3&=0\
2(0.5)^{2}+5(0.5)-3&=0\
2(0.25)+2.5-3&=0\
0.5-2.5-3&=0\
3-3&=0\
0&=0\

Exercise 6
Step 1
1 of 6
Given,

$$
begin{align*}
i) x^{2}+7x+12&=0\
ii) (dfrac{1}{2}x+7)^{2}+7(dfrac{1}{2}x+7)+12&=0\
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 6
$a.$ Now we will solve the first given equation.

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+7x+12&=0\
x^{2}+3x+4x+12&=0 \
x(x+3)+4(x+3)&=0\
(x+4)(x+3)&=0\
x&=-4,-3\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the solution of the first given equation is $(-4)$ and $(-3)$.

Step 3
3 of 6
$b.$ The box in the diagram drawn by Graciela represents $dfrac{1}{2}x+7$ and $x$ in the diagram means that she has replaced boxes with $dfrac{1}{2}x+7$ and $x$.
Step 4
4 of 6
$c.$ Graciela got this diagram by using substituting in the second given equation in the first given equation and thus, form $b.$ part we know that the boxes represent $dfrac{1}{2}x+7$. So, the diagram drawn by Graciela represents the solutions of the first given equation equated to $dfrac{1}{2}x+7$.
Step 5
5 of 6
$d.$ Now we equate $dfrac{1}{2}x+7$ to $(-3)$ to find the first value of $x$.

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{1}{2}x+7&=-3\
dfrac{1}{2}x&=-3-7\
x&=dfrac{-10times2}{1}\
x&=-20\
end{align*}
$$

Now we equate $dfrac{1}{2}x+7$ to $(-4)$ to find the second value of $x$.

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{1}{2}x+7&=-4\
dfrac{1}{2}x&=-4-7\
x&=dfrac{-11times2}{1}\
x&=-22\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $x$ is $(-22)$ and $(-20)$.

Step 6
6 of 6
Then, we check the values of $x$ by putting them in the second given equation.

Now, putting $x$ as $(-22)$.

$$
begin{align*}
(dfrac{1}{2}x+7)^{2}+7(dfrac{1}{2}x+7)+12&=0\
(dfrac{1}{2}(-22)+7)^{2}+7(dfrac{1}{2}(-22)+7)+12&=0\
(-11+7)^{2}+7(-11+7)+12&=0\
(-4)^{2}+7(-4)+12&=0\
16-28+12&=0\
28-28&=0\
0&=0\
end{align*}
$$

Now, putting $x$ as $(-20)$.

$$
begin{align*}
(dfrac{1}{2}x+7)^{2}+7(dfrac{1}{2}x+7)+12&=0\
(dfrac{1}{2}(-20)+7)^{2}+7(dfrac{1}{2}(-20)+7)+12&=0\
(-10+7)^{2}+7(-10+7)+12&=0\
(-3)^{2}+7(-3)+12&=0\
9-21+12&=0\
21-21&=0\
0&=0\
end{align*}
$$

There fore the obtained solutions are correct.

Exercise 7
Step 1
1 of 7
Given,

$$
begin{align*}
&a.(m^{2}+5m-24)^{2}-(m^{2}+5m-24)=6 \\
&b. x^{tfrac{2}{3}}-x^{tfrac{1}{3}}-56=0\\
&c. y^{6}+3y^{3}-18=0\\
&d. p-12sqrt{p}=35 \\
&e. 3^{sqrt{x+tfrac{1}{4}}}=9^({sqrt{x+tfrac{1}{4}}})^{2}\\
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 7
$a.$ Now in the first given equation we will take $y$ as $m^{2}+5m-24$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $m^{2}+5m-24$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}-y&=6\\
y^{2}-y-6&=0\\
end{align*}
$$

Step 3
3 of 7
$b.$ Now in the first given equation we will take $y$ as $x^{tfrac{1}{3}}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $x^{tfrac{1}{3}}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}-y-56&=0\\
end{align*}
$$

Step 4
4 of 7
$c.$ Now in the second given equation we will take $x$ as $y^{2}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $y^{2}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+3x-18&=0\
x^{2}+6x-3x-18&=0\
x(x+6)-3(x-6)&=0\
x(x+6)-3(x+6)&=0\
(x-3)(x+6)&=0\
y&=3,-6\
end{align*}
$$

Step 5
5 of 7
Now we equate the value of $x$ to $y^{2}$ to get the value of $y$,

So, when we take $x$ as $3$,

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}&=3\
y&=sqrt{3}\
end{align*}
$$

Now we equate the value of $x$ to $y^{2}$ to get the value of $y$,

So, when we take $x$ as $-6$,

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}&=-6\
y&=sqrt{-6}\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $y$ is $sqrt{3}$ and $sqrt{-6}$.

Step 6
6 of 7
$d.$ Now in the first given equation we will take $y$ as $sqrt{p}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $sqrt{p}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}-12y+35&=0\
end{align*}
$$

Step 7
7 of 7
$e.$ Now in the first given equation we will take $y$ as $sqrt{x+{tfrac{1}{4}}}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $sqrt{x+{tfrac{1}{4}}}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
3^{y}&=(3^{2})^{y^{2}}\
end{align*}
$$

Exercise 9
Step 1
1 of 3
We are discussing two strategies to solve an equation along with their examples.

$textbf{Solving an equation graphically:}$ We can solve an equation graphically by putting the right side and the left side of the equation on the graph and then finding their intersection points. The intersection points will be called as the solution of the equation.

For example, let us have to solve an equation $3x+4=-5$. To solve this, graph the right side and the left side of the equation on the graph that means we have to graph $y=3x+4$ and $y=-5$ on the coordinate plane.

Now, let us look at the intersection point of both these lines. The intersection point is $(-3,-5)$ that means both these equations gives equal values of $y$ for $x=-3$. Thus, the solution of the equation $3x+4=-5$ is $x=-3$.

Exercise scan

Step 2
2 of 3
$textbf{Solving an equation algebraically:}$ In this method, first we try to separate the constant on one side and variables on the other side then simplify the equation using various algebraic identities and some other algebraic axioms.

For example, let us solve the same example algebraically as shown below.

$$
begin{align*}
3x+4&=-5tag{subtract $4$ from both sides}\
3x+4-4&=-5-4\
3x&=-9tag{divide both sides by $3$}\
dfrac{3x}{3}&=dfrac{-9}{3}\
x&=-3
end{align*}
$$

The solution is coming out to be the same by this method as well that is $x=-3$.

There is one another example, we have to solve $2(x-1)^2+5=7$.

$$
begin{align*}
2(x-1)^2+5&=7tag{subtract $5$ from both sides}\
2(x-1)^2+5-5&=7-5\
2(x-1)^2&=2tag{divide both sides by $2$}\
dfrac{2(x-1)^2}{2}&=dfrac{2}{2}\
(x-1)^2&=1tag{take square roots on both sides}\
x-1&=pm1tag{add $1$ on both sides}\
x&=pm1+1\
x&=2,0
end{align*}
$$

Let’s multiply both sides of the equation with 6:

$$
3x + 2x=5x+2

$f(x)=x^2-8x$          (Write the equation)

$f(x)=x(x-8)$          (Factor out $x$)

x-intercepts are:          $x=0$ and $x=8$

x-intercepts average $=dfrac {x_{1}+z_{2}}{2}=dfrac {0+8}{2}=4$

$x_{1}=dfrac {-7}{2}-dfrac {sqrt {57}}{2}$         $x_{2}=dfrac {-7}{2}+dfrac {sqrt {57}}{2}$

x-intercepts average:          $=dfrac {x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}$

$=left(dfrac {-7}{2}-cancel{dfrac {sqrt {57}}{2}}+dfrac {-7}{2}+cancel {dfrac {sqrt {57}}{2}} right)div 2$

Exercise 14
Step 1

The parabola is even because it has $y$-axis of symmetry.

The $”x”$ point lies on the $y$-axis which is why the parabola has $y$-axis of symmetry.

Exercise 15
Step 1
1 of 4
(a) Downward sloping parabola with vertex at $(-4,2)$. Equation is a quadratic with negative leading coefficient; $y(x)=-a(x+4)^{2}+2$ . Since the x-intercepts are at $x=-3$ and $x=-5$ then $-a(-3+4)^{2}=-2$ and $-a(-5+4)^{2}=-2$ giving $a=2$ and finally $y(x)=-2(x+4)^{2}+2$
Step 2
2 of 4
(b) Rational with vertical asymptote at $x=2$ and horizontal asymptote at $x=0$ since $limlimits_{x to pminfty}y(x)=0$. Equation is then $y(x)=dfrac{1}{x-2}$
Step 3
3 of 4
(c) Cubic with negative leading coefficient since $limlimits_{x to infty}y(x)=-infty$ and $limlimits_{x to -infty}y(x)=infty$. We have an x-intercept at $1<x<2$ and y-intercept at $y=3$ so equation is polynomial (3rd order) $y(x)=-x^{3}+3$

$$

Step 2

Exercise 17
Step 1
1 of 7
Given,

$$
begin{align*}
&a.dfrac{3(x^{2}-dfrac{4}{5})}{8}+dfrac{(x^{2}-dfrac{4}{5})}{8}=2 \
&b.(dfrac{1}{n+1})^{2}+6(dfrac{1}{n+1})=27 \
&c.6(dfrac{x+1}{6})^{2}+7(dfrac{x+2}{6})-3=0\
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 7
$a.$ Now in the first given equation we will take $y$ as $x^{2}-dfrac{4}{5}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $x^{2}-dfrac{4}{5}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{3y}{8}+dfrac{y}{4}&=2\
dfrac{3y+2y}{8}&=2
3y+2y&=2times8\
5y&=16\
y&=dfrac{16}{5}\
end{align*}
$$

Now we equate the value of $y$ to $x^{2}-dfrac{4}{5}$ to get the value of $x$,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}-dfrac{4}{5}&=dfrac{16}{5}\\
x^{2}&=dfrac{16}{5}+dfrac{4}{5}\\
x^{2}&=dfrac{16+4}{5}\\
x^{2}&=dfrac{20}{5}\\
x^{2}&=4\\
x&=pm2\\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $x$ is $pm2$

Step 3
3 of 7
$b.$ Now in the second given equation we will take $y$ as $dfrac{1}{n+1}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $dfrac{1}{n+1}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}+6y&=27\
y^{2}+6y-27&=0\
y^{2}+9y-3y-27&=0\
y(y+9)-3(y-9)&=0\
y(y+9)-3(y+9)&=0\
(y-3)(y+9)&=0\
y&=3,-9\
end{align*}
$$

Step 4
4 of 7
Now we equate the value of $y$ to $dfrac{1}{n+1}$ to get the value of $n$,

So, when we take $y$ as $3$,

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{1}{n+1}&=3\
1&=3(n+1)\
1&=3n+3\
1-3&=3n\
-2&=3n\
n&=-dfrac{2}{3}\
end{align*}
$$

So, when we take $y$ as $9$,

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{1}{n+1}&=9 \
1&=9(n+1)\
1&=9n+9\
1-9&=9n\
-8&=9n\
n&=-dfrac{8}{9}\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $n$ is $-dfrac{2}{3}$ and $-dfrac{8}{9}$.

Step 5
5 of 7
$c.$ Now in the third given equation we will take $y$ as $dfrac{x+2}{6}$, as Graciela did in $3-6$, so our box indicates the value $dfrac{x+2}{6}$.

Now, we rewrite and solve the given equation,

$$
begin{align*}
6y^{2}+7y-3&=\
6y^{2}+9y-2y-3&=0\
3y(2y+3)-1(2y+3)&=0\
(3y-1)(2y+3)&=0\
y&=dfrac{1}{3},-dfrac{3}{2}\
end{align*}
$$

Step 6
6 of 7
Now we equate the value of $y$ to $dfrac{x+2}{6}$ to get the value of $n$,

So, when we take $y$ as $dfrac{1}{3}$,

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{x+2}{6}&=dfrac{1}{3}\
3(x+2)&=6(1)\
3x+6&=6\
3x&=6-6\
3x&=0\
x&=0\
end{align*}
$$

So, when we take $y$ as $-dfrac{3}{2}$,

$$
begin{align*}
dfrac{x+2}{6}&=-dfrac{3}{2}\
2(x+2)&=6(-3)\
2x+4&=-18\
2x&=-22\
2x&=dfrac{-22}{2}\
x&=-11\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $x$ is $0$ and $-11$.

Step 1
1 of 5
Given,

$$
begin{align*}
&a.(y-7)^{2}=25-(x-3)^{2}\
&b. x^{2}+y^{2}+10y=-9\
&c. x^{2}+y^{2}+18x-8y+47=0 \
&d. y^{2}+(x-3)^{2}=1\
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 5
$a.$ We first rewrite the equation in standard form,

$$
begin{align*}
(y-7)^{2}&=25-(x-3)^{2}\
(x-3)^{2}+(y-7)^{2}&=25\
end{align*}
$$

Now, we find the radius.

$$
begin{align*}
(x-3)^{2}+(y-7)^{2}&=25\
C(3,7)\
r&=sqrt{25}\
r&=5\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the radius of the circle is $5$ and the center is $(3,7)$

Step 3
3 of 5
$b.$ We first rewrite the equation in standard form,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+y^{2}+10y&=-9\
x^{2}+(y^{2}+10y+25)&=-9+25\
x^{2}+(y+5)^{2}&=16\
end{align*}
$$

Now, we find the radius.

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+(y+5)^{2}&=16\
C(0,-5)\
r&=sqrt{16}\
r&=4\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the radius of the circle is $4$ and the center is $(0,-5)$

Step 4
4 of 5
$c.$ We first rewrite the equation in standard form,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+y^{2}+18x-8y+47&=0\
(x^{2}++18x+81)+(y^{2}-8y+16)&=-47+81+16\
(x+9)^{2}+(y-4)^{2}&=50\
end{align*}
$$

Now, we find the radius.

$$
begin{align*}
(x+9)^{2}+(y-4)^{2}&=50\
C(-9,4)\
r&=sqrt{50}\
r&=5sqrt{2}\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the radius of the circle is $5sqrt{2}$ and the center is $(-9,4)$

Step 5
5 of 5
$d.$ We are given the equation in standard form,

Now, we find the radius and the centre.

$$
begin{align*}
y^{2}+(x-3)^{2}&=1\
C(0,3)\
r&=sqrt{1}\
r&=1\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the radius of the circle is $1$ and the center is $(0,3)$

Step 3
3 of 3
The function has an odd degree, therefore its ends go in opposite directions. because the leading coefficient is positive, the left and goes down, while the right end goes up.

The function has one $x$-intercept and an $y$-intercept, this means the function has one real zero and two imaginary zeroes.

The domain and range of the function are the set of all real numbers.

The functions are increasing in all its domain.

There is no asymptote.

$a.$ To shift the functions down by $4$ unit

$$
begin{align*}
y&=3^{x}\
y&=3^{x}-4\

Therefore when we shift the function down by $4$ units we get $y=3^{x}-4$.

Step 3
3 of 4
$b.$ To shift the functions right by $7$ unit

$$
begin{align*}
y&=3^{x}\

Therefore when we shift the function right by $7$ units we get $y=3^{x-7}$.

$a) y=3^{x}-4$

$b) y=3^{x-7}$

Step 1
1 of 6
Given,

$$
begin{align*}
p(x)&=x^{2}+5x-6 \
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 6
$a.$ In order to find where does the graph of $y= p(x)$ intersect $y$-axis we will compute,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=p(x)\
y&=p(0) tag{1} \
end{align*}
$$

So, form $(1)$ we get,

$$
begin{align*}
p(0)&=x^{2}+5x-6\
p(0)&=(0)^{2}+5(0)-6\
p(0)&=-6\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the graph of $y= p(x)$ intersect $y$-axis at $(0,-6)$.

Step 3
3 of 6
$b.$ In order to find where does the graph of $y= p(x)$ intersect $x$-axis we will compute,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=p(x)\
0&=p(x) tag{1}\
end{align*}
$$

So, form $(1)$ we get,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+5x-6&=0 \
x^{2}+6x-x-6&=0\
x(x+6)-1(x-6)&=0\
x(x+6)-1(x+6)&=0\
(x-1)(x+6)&=0\
x&=1,-6\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the graph of $y= p(x)$ intersect $x$-axis at $(-6,0)$ and $(1,0)$.

Step 4
4 of 6
$c.$ If q$(x) = x^{2}+5x$, then the intercepts of the graph of $y = q(x)$,

$x$-intercept, when $x$ is $0$

$$
begin{align*}
q(x)&=x^{2}+5x\
q(0)&=(0)^{2}+5(0)\
q(0)&=0\
end{align*}
$$

Thus $x$-intercept of q$(x)$ is $0$.

$y$-intercept, when $y$ is $0$

$$
begin{align*}
q(x)&=y\
q(x)&=0\
end{align*}
$$

So,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{2}+5x&=0\
x(x+5)&=0\
x&=0,-5\
end{align*}
$$

Thus $y$-intercept of q$(x)$ is $0$ and $-5$.

Step 5

$d.$ Thus, we sketch the graph,

The graph of q$(x)$ is the graph of p$(x)$ shifted six units up.

$e.$ Now, the value of p$(x)$-q$(x)$,

$$

p(x)-q(x)&=x^{2}+5x-6-(x^{2}+5x)\
p(x)-q(x)&=x^{2}+5x-6-x^{2}-5x\
p(x)-q(x)&=-6\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of p$(x)$-q$(x)$ is $-6$.

$a.$ In order to solve this system of equations algebraically we will choose the elimination method,

Now, we will multiply the second given equation by two in order to get opposite coefficients of $x$.

$$
begin{align*}
(9y+2x&=4)times2\
18y+4x&=8tag{1} \

$$

Now we add the first given equation and $(1)$ to get the value of $y$,

$$
begin{align*}
&3y – 4x = -1 \
&18y + 4x = 8 \
&rule{75pt}{0.5pt} \
& 21y = 7\
& y = dfrac{7}{21}\
& y = dfrac{1}{3}\

$$

Step 3

Put $y=left(dfrac{1}{3}right)$ in $(1)$ , we get

$$
begin{align*}
18left(dfrac{1}{3}right) + 4x &= 8 \\
6+4x &= 8 \\

Exercise 52
Step 1
1 of 5
Given,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=4left(dfrac{1}{x+5}right)+7\\
end{align*}
$$

In order to graph and completely dec=scribe the given function, we will sketch the graph of the given function first.

Step 2
2 of 5
To graph the function, we start with the parent function f$_{0}(x)=dfrac{1}{x}$, which we shift five units to the left, then vertically stretch by a factor of four and finally shift seven units up to get $y$.

Thus the graph is mentioned below.

Exercise scan

Step 3
3 of 5
The function’s domain is $(-infty,-5)$ and $(-5,infty)$.

The function’s range is $(-infty,7)$ and $(7,infty)$.

The function has a vertical asymptote which is $x = -5$ and a horizontal asymptote which is $y = 7$.

The function is decreasing on $(-infty,-5)$ and on $(-5,infty)$.

The function is discontinous in $x = -5$.

Step 4
4 of 5
The $x$-intercept is,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=0\
0&=4(dfrac{1}{x+5})+7\
0&=dfrac{4}{x+5}+7\
-7&=dfrac{4}{x+5}\
-7(x+5)&=4\
-7x-35&=4\
-7x&=39\
x&=-dfrac{39}{7}\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore $x$-intercept is $-dfrac{39}{7}$.

Step 5
5 of 5
The $y$-intercept is,

$$
begin{align*}
x&=0\
y&=4(dfrac{1}{x+5})+7\
y&=dfrac{4}{0+5}+7\
y&=dfrac{4}{5}+7\
y&=dfrac{4+35}{5} \
y&=dfrac{39}{5} \
end{align*}
$$

Therefore $y$-intercept is $dfrac{39}{5}$.

b. y&=9x^{5}-x-9 \
c. y&=4x^{3}+8x^{7}\

$a.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=sqrt[3]{x}\
y&=x^{tfrac{1}{3}}\
f(x)&=x^{tfrac{1}{3}}\
f(-x)&=-x^{tfrac{1}{3}}ne f(x) \
-f(x)&=-x^{tfrac{1}{3}}ne f(-x) \

Thus the given function is neither odd nor even.

Step 3

$b.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=9x^{5}-x-9\
f(x)&=9x^{5}-x-9\
f(-x)&=9(-x)^{5}-(-x)-9\
f(-x)&=-9x^{5}+x-9\
f(-x)&=-(9x^{5}-x+9)ne f(x)\
-f(x)&=9(-x)^{5}+x-9ne f(-x) \

$$

Thus the given function is neither odd nor even.

Step 4

$c.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=4x^{3}+8x^{7}\
f(x)&=4x^{3}+8x^{7}\
f(-x)&=4(-x)^{3}+8(-x)^{7}\
f(-x)&=-4x^{5}-8x^{7}\
f(-x)&=-(4x^{5}+8x^{7})ne -f(x) \

Thus the given function is odd .

$$
begin{align*}
&a. y=sqrt[9]{m} \\
&b. dfrac{2}{g^{7}}\\
&c. dfrac{-3}{b^{-5}}\\

In order to rewrite each expression in an equivalent form first, we will simplify them.

Step 2
2 of 4
$a.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
y&=sqrt[9]{m}\
y&=m^{tfrac{1}{9}} \
end{align*}
$$

Thus the equivalent form is $y = m^{tfrac{1}{9}}$.

Step 3
3 of 4
$b.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
&=dfrac{2}{g^{7}}\\
&=2g^{-7}\
end{align*}
$$

Thus the equivalent form is $2g^{-7}$.

Step 4
4 of 4
$c.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
&=dfrac{-3}{b^{-5}}\
&=-3b^{5}\
end{align*}
$$

Thus the equivalent form is $-3b^{5}$.

Assuming Jamal’s cupcake and Dinah’s sandwich flew from flew from the point $(0, 0)$.

The path of Jamal’s cupcake can be represented with a quadratic equation, where the vertex of the parabola is the point $(10,9)$

$j(x)=-a(x-10)^2+9$

Substituting for the point $(0,0)$

$0=-a(0-10)^2+9$

$0=-100a+9$

$a=dfrac {9}{100}$

$$
j(x)=-dfrac {9}{100}(x-10)^2+9
$$

The path of Jamal’s cupcake can be represented with a quadratic equation, where the vertex of the parabola is the point $(12,6)$

$d(x)=-a(x-12)^2+6$

Substituting for the point $(0,0)$

$0=-a(0-12)^2+6$

$0=-144a+6$

$a=dfrac {1}{24}$

To determine how tall is Harold, we solve both equations.

$j(x)=d(x)$

$-dfrac {9}{100}(x-10)^2+9=-dfrac {1}{24}(x-12)^2+6$

$-dfrac {9}{100}(x-10)^2+9=-dfrac {1}{24}(x-12)^2+6$

$-dfrac {9}{100}(x-10)^2+3-dfrac {1}{24}(x-12)^2$          (Subtracting 6 from each side)

$-9 cdot 6(x-10)^2+3 cdot 600=-25(x-12)^2$          (Multiply each side by 600)

$-9 cdot 6(x-10)^2+3 cdot 600=-25(x-12)^2$          (Multiply each side by 600)

$-54(x^2-20x+100)+1800=-25(x^2-24x+144)$

$-54x^2+1080x-5400+1800=-25x^2+600x-3600$

$29x^2-480x=0$

$x=0$ or $x=dfrac {480}{29} approx 16.55$

$j(16.55)=-dfrac {9}{100}(16.55-10)^2+9$

$j(16.55)=5.14$

Harold is 5.14 feet.

Step 1

Given,

$$
begin{align*}
f(x)&=x^{3}+1\
g(x)&=(x+1)^{2} \
end{align*}
$$

Step 2
2 of 8
$a.$ The graph of the given functions is given below,

Exercise scan

Step 3
3 of 8
$b.$ Now we solve for f$(x) = 9$,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{3}+1&=9\
x^{3}&=9-1\
x^{3}&=8\
x^{3}-8&=0\
(x+2)[(x^{2}+2x+4)+3]&=0\
(x+2)[(x+1)^{2}+3]&=0 \
(x+2)(x+1+sqrt3i)(x+1-sqrt3i)&=0\
x&=-2,-1-sqrt3i,-1+sqrt3i\
end{align*}
$$

Thus the value of f$(x) = 9$ is $x = -2, -1-sqrt3i , -1+sqrt3i$ .

Step 4
4 of 8
$c.$ Now we solve for g$(x) = 0$,

$$
begin{align*}
(x+1)^{2}&=0\
x+1&=0\
x&=-1\
end{align*}
$$

Thus the value of g$(x) = 0$ is $x = -1$.

Step 5
5 of 8
$d.$ Now we solve for f$(x) = -7$,

$$
begin{align*}
x^{3}+1&=-7\
x^{3}&=-7-1\
x^{3}&=-8\
x^{3}+8&=0\
(x+2)[(x^{2}-2x+4)+3]&=0 \
(x+2)[(x-1)^{2}+3]&=0\
(x+2)(x-1+sqrt3i)(x+1-sqrt3i)&=0\
x&=-2,1-sqrt3i,1+sqrt3i\
end{align*}
$$

Thus the value of f$(x) = -7$ is $x = -2, 1-sqrt3i , 1+sqrt3i$ .

Step 6
6 of 8
$e.$ Now we solve for g$(x) = 12$,

$$
begin{align*}
(x+1)^{2}&=12\
(x+1)&=pmsqrt12\
x&=-1pmsqrt12\
end{align*}
$$

Thus the value of g$(x) = 12$ is $x = -1pmsqrt12$ .

Step 7
7 of 8
$f.$ Now ,

$$
begin{align*}
f(x)&=g(x)\
x^{3}+1&=(x+1)^{2}\
x^{3}+1&=x^{2}+2x+1\
x^{3}+1-x^{2}-2x-1&=0\
x^{3}-x^{2}-2x&=0\
x(x^{2}-x-2)&=0\
x(x^{2}+x-2x-2)&=0\
x[x(x+1)-2(x+1)]&=0\
x(x+1)(x-2)&=0\
x&=0,-1,2\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore 3 values of $x$ is f$(x)$ equal g$(x)$.

Step 8
8 of 8
$g.$ Now,

We check if f$(x)$ is even or odd,

$$
begin{align*}
f(x)&=x^{3}+1\
f(-x)&=-x^{3}+1ne f(x)ne -f(x)\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore f$(x)$ is neither odd nor even.

We check if g$(x)$ is even or odd,

$$
begin{align*}
g(x)&=(x+1)^{2}\
g(-x)&=(x-1)^{2} ne g(x) ne -g(x)\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore g$(x)$ is neither odd nor even.

Assuming $d$ is the soft drink. $p$ is the popcorn and $t$ is the ticket.

$3d+3p=22.5$          (The first trip equation)

$3t=3 cdot 8=24$          (The tickets cost in the second trip)
$3d+p=37.5-24$

$3d+p=13.5$          (The second trip equation)

$p=13.5-3d$          (Solve the second equation for $p$)

$3d+3(13.5-3d)=22.5$          (Substitute for $p$ in the first equarion)

$3d+40.5-9d=22.5$

$-6d=22.5-40.5$

$6d=18$

$$
d=3

Substituting in the first equation:

$3(3)+3p=22.5$
]
$3p=22.5-9$

$3p=13.5$

$$
p=4.5

The price of a large soft drink $d=$3$

The price of a large bucket of popcorn $p=$4.5$

&b. r^{-7}(r^{dfrac{-3}{2}})^{8}\
&c. 6(sqrt[7]{6})^{5}\

$$

Step 2
2 of 4
$a.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
&(p^{-4}w^{-8})^{-9}\
&=(p^{-4})^{-9}(w^{-8})^{-9} \
&=p^{(-4)(-9)}w^{(-8)(-9)}\
&=p^{36}w^{72}\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the rewritten expression without parentheses and negative exponents is $p^{36}w^{72}$.

Step 3
3 of 4
$b.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
&r^{-7}(r^{tfrac{-3}{2}})^{8}\
&=r^{-7}r^{(tfrac{-3}{2})8} \
&=r^{-7}r^{-12}\
&=r^{(-7)+(-12)} (text{As, we know that with same base powers are added})\
&=r^{-19}\
&=r^{tfrac{1}{19}} \
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the rewritten expression without parentheses and negative exponents is $r^{tfrac{1}{19}}$.

Step 4
4 of 4
$b.$ Now,

$$
begin{align*}
&6(sqrt[7]{6})^{5}\
&=6(6^{tfrac{1}{7}})^{5}\
&=6times6^{(tfrac{1}{7})(5)} \
&=6times6^{tfrac{5}{7}}\
&=6^{(1)+(tfrac{5}{7})} (text{As, we know that with same base powers are added})\
&=6^{tfrac{12}{7}}\

Therefore the rewritten expression without parentheses and negative exponents is $r^{tfrac{12}{7}}$.

The polygon formed by the equation is $EFGH$ with the coordinate:

The slope of $overline {EH}=-2$

The slope of $overline {EF}=0.5$

$-2 cdot 0.5=-1$

So,
$overline {EH} bot overline {EF}$

The slope of $overline {FG}=-2$

$overline {EH} parallel overline {FG}$

The slope of $overline {GH}=0.5$

$$
overline {EF} parallel overline {GH}

So, All the angles of the polygon are right angles.

The length of $overline {EH}=sqrt {(0-4)^2+(3-1)^2}=sqrt {16+4}=sqrt {20}=2 sqrt {5}$

The length of $overline {EF}=sqrt {(1-4)^2+(-5-1)^2}=sqrt {9+36}=sqrt {45}=3 sqrt {5}$

Step 2

The function is a quadratic function with the vertex $(-3,0)$, the axis of symmetry is $x = -3$.
Step 4
4 of 10
The $x$-intercept is,

When, $y = 0$

$$
begin{align*}
0&=2(x+3)^{2}\
dfrac{0}{2}&=(x+3)^{2}\
sqrt{0}&=x+3\
0&=x+3\
x&=-3,0\

Therefore the $x$-intercepts have two values which are $-3,0$.

Step 5

The $y$-intercept is,

When, $x = 0$

$$
begin{align*}
y&=2(x+3)^{2}\
y&=2(0+3)^{2}\

begin{align*}
g(x)&=2(x+3)^{2}\
g(a+1)&=2(a+1+3)^{2}\
g(a+1)&=2(a+4)^{2}\
g(a+1)&=2(a^{2}+16+8a)\
g(a+1)&=2a^{2}+16a+32\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $g(a+1)$ is $2a^{2}+16a+32$.

Step 8

$b.$ Now, we determine $g(x)=32$.

$$
begin{align*}
32&=2(x+3)^{2}\
dfrac{32}{2}&=(x+3)^{2}\
sqrt{16}&=x+3\
pm4&=x+3\
x&=-7,1\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $g(x)=32$ is $x=-7,1$.

Step 9

$d.$ Now, we determine $g(x)=0$.

$$
begin{align*}
0&=2(x+3)^{2}\
dfrac{0}{2}&=(x+3)^{2}\
sqrt{0}&=x+3\
0&=x+3\
x&=-3,0\
end{align*}
$$

Therefore the value of $g(x)=0$ is $x=-3,0$.

Exercise 108
Step 1
1 of 3
The given graph tells us that it represents two equations one is quadratic and the other is absolute value.

We can use the graph to predict the equations as follows:

The quadratic equation has a vertex $(0, -1)$ and passes the point $(2, 0)$

By substituting in the vertex form of the quadratic equation.

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

$0=a(2-0)^2-1$

$4a=1$

$a=dfrac {1}{4}$

The quadratic equation is:

$$
y=dfrac {1}{4}(x)^2-1
$$

The absolute value equation passes the points $(2, 6)$ and $(6, 0)$

The slope $m$:

$m=dfrac {0-6}{6-2}=-dfrac {3}{2}$

The vertex of the function is the point $(2, 6)$

The equation is:

$$
y=-dfrac {3}{2}|x-2|+6
$$

Exercise 109
Step 1

textbf{(a)} Vertex of parabola is at $(-3,-2)$.\\
We know general equation of parabola is :
$$y=a(x-h)^2+k$$
Where $(h,k)$ is vertex of parabola.\\
Therefore, equation of given parabola is:
$$y=a(x-(-3))^2+(-2)=a(x+3)^2-2$$
Evaluating $a$ by putting $(-5,0)$ in above equation:
begin{align*}
0&=a(-5+3)^2-2\
0&=a(-2)^2-2\
-4a&=-2\
a&=dfrac{1}{2}
end{align*}
Hence, the equation of parabola is:
$$y=dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)^2-2$$
textbf{(b)} Evaluating slope of line:
begin{align*}
m&=dfrac{5-0}{0-(-5)}\
&=dfrac{5}{5}\
&=1
intertext{Evaluating equation of line: }
y-0&=1 (x-(-5))+c\
y&=x+5
end{align*}
textbf{(c)} In the given graph it can be observed that $y=x+5$ and $y=dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)^2-2$ intersects at $(-5,0)$ and $(1,6)$\\
Hence, solutions for given equation are $(-5,0)$ and $(1,6)$.\
Step 2
2 of 3
$textbf{(d)}$On equating both equations in system we get, $x+5=dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)^2-2$

As discussed in previous part, solutions for given system are $(-5,0)$ and $(1,6)$.

$textbf{(e)}$ In the given graph it can be observed that $y=x+5$ is less than $y=dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)^2-2$ for $x1$

Hence, solutions for given inequality is $(-infty,-5) cup(1,infty)$.

$textbf{(f)}$ In the given graph it can be observed that $y=dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)^2-2$ intersects $x-$axis at $x=-5$ and $x=-1$

Hence, solutions to given equation are $x=-5$ and $x=-1$

$textbf{(g)}$ In the given graph draw a line $y=4$.

It can be observed that $y=x+5$ intersects $y=4$ at $x=-1$

Hence, solution to given equation is $x=-1$

$textbf{(h)}$ We know slope of parabola is steeper and parabola have a finite minimum value.

Therefore we should move parabola to left so that it moves aways from line and never intersects it as for all the $x$ parabola will have larger $y$.

After moving parabola to left by more than 4.5 units will have no intersection with given line.

Example of a modification is:

$$
y=dfrac{1}{2}(x+3+4.6)^2-2=dfrac{1}{2}(x+7.6)^2-2
$$

a-

$(y-3)^2=2y-10$          (Given)

$y^2-6y+9=2y-10$

$y^2-8y+19=0$

Using quadratic formula to solve the equation,

$x_{1, 2}=dfrac {-b pm sqrt {b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x_{1, 2}=dfrac {8 pm sqrt {(-8)^2-4(1)(19)}}{2}$

$x_{1, 2}=dfrac {8 pm sqrt {64-76}}{2}$

$x_{1, 2}=dfrac {8 pm sqrt {-12}}{2}$

The discriminant $=-12<0$. So, The equation has no real solutions.

b-

$|y-3|=2y-10$          (Given)

There are two cases:

The first case:          $y-3=2y-10$

$2y-y=10-3$

$y=7$

Substituting in the equation:

$|7-3|=2 cdot 7-10$

$4=4$          (7 is a valid solution)

The second case:          $y-3=-(2y-10)$

$y-3=-2y+10$

$2y+y=10+3$

$3y=13$

$y=dfrac {13}{3}$

Substituting in the equation:

$left|dfrac {13}{3}-dfrac {9}{3} right|=2 cdot dfrac {13}{3}-dfrac {30}{3}$

$dfrac {4}{3} neq -dfrac {4}{3}$

$y=dfrac {13}{3}$ is an extraneous solution.

Exercise 114
Step 1
1 of 2
The first part of the equation is a quadratic function whose vertex $(h, k)$ is the point $(2, 0)$ and passes the point $(0, -4)$

The general form of this part is:          $y=a(x-h)^2+k$

$-4=a(0-2)^2+0$

$$
-4=a(1)+0
$$

$a=-4$

The first equation is:          $y=-4(x-2)^2$ for $(x<2)$

The second equation is a line that starts at the point $(2, 4)$ but its y-inytercept could pass the point $(0, 2)$

The slope $m=dfrac {4-2}{2-0}=dfrac {2}{2}=1$

The equation is:          $y=x+2$ for $(x geq 2)$

The piecewise defined function is:

$$
f(x) = begin{cases}
-4(x-2)^2 & x<2\
\
