What are the x and y intercepts of y= -2(x-4)2 +3

x-intercepts are ( 2.775,0) and (5.225,0)

And y-intercept is (0,-29)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given equation is,

For x-intercept, y = 0,

Put y = 0 in the above equation of parabola,

We get,

By solving this equation,

We get, x = 2.775 or x = 5.225

Therefore, x-intercept of the given parabola are (2.775, 0) and (5.225,0)

Now, for y-intercept, x = 0

By putting x = 0 in the given equation of parabola,

We get, y = -29

Thus, y-intercept of the given parabola = (0,-29)

x-3y=4

step-by-step e

step-by-step explanation:

part a. the differences are decreasing, so we know the sequence is not arithmetic. the ratios are constant (=3/4), so we know the sequence is geometric.

part b. from part a, we know the common ratio is 3/4, so each term is 3/4 of the one before. the initial term is the number of gallons at h=1.

g[h] = (3/4)·g[h-1]

g[1] = 384 . . . . initial value required for a recursive definition

part c. the general formula for a geometric sequence is

a[n] = a[1]·r^(n-1)

we have a[1] = 384, r = 3/4, and the term number given by h. the formula that follows is

g[h] = 384·(3/4)^(h-1)

part d. filling in the value and doing the arithmetic, we have

g[12] = 384·(3/4)^11 ≈ 384·0.042235136 ≈ 16.2183 . . gallons

part e. each gallon is 4 quarts, so

16.2183 gal × 4 qt/gal = 64.8732 qt
