Answer:
The function has a maximum value of 3 that occurs at x = 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, note that the leading coefficient is negative. This means that the parabola will curve downwards. Because of this, the function has a maximum. The maximum value will simply be the vertex.
The formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex is -b/2a.
a=-3, b=6, c=0
Plug in the numbers:
x=-(6)/2(-3)
=-6/-6=1
Now, plug 1 back into the original function:
-3x^2+6x
-3(1)^2+6(1)
=-3(1)+6
=-3+6
=3

Please I need help! Which of the following are true?
Answer:
choices A, B, and D are all true
choice C is false
Step-by-step explanation:
Choice A is true because both functions shown on the graph have exactly one asymptote at about y=1.
Choice B is true because well, the reason Choice C is not true. logarithmic graphs and exponential graphs look very similar. However, exponential graphs get very close to the x-axis but never actually touch it. In this graphing, the blue function crosses the x-axis, so it cannot be an exponential function. The only other function that has graphs that look like this is a logarithmic function, so Choice B is correct and Choice C is not correct.
Once again, Choice C is not correct because the blue graph crosses the x-axis and exponential functions never actually touch the x-axis no matter how close they get to it.
Choice D is correct because the red graph has been reflected over the x-axis and shifted upward, and the blue graph has been reflected across the y-axis and shifted to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:
With the numbers, I can correspond to a series of numbers to one of the 26 letters of the English language. Like the Roman numeral system, a number adds if the next one in the sequence is smaller, and vice versa if it is larger. Combining the structure of the Roman numerals with the numbers 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20 makes it so that you never have to use more than 3 numbers to express a letter.

griffin ordered a pair of sneakers online. he had 16 credit that he applied toward the purchase, and then he used a credit card to pay for the rest of the cost. if the the shoes cost 80, then how much did griffin charge to his credit card when he bought the sneakers? PLEASE ANSWER I BEG Y'ALL
Answer: Griffin charge $79.854 to his credit card when he bought the sneakers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Griffin ordered a pair of sneakers online.
Value of each credit point = 1 cent
Then , value of 16 credit points = 16 cents = $0.16 [1$ = 100 cents]
Cost of shoes = Rs $80
Charge to credit card = (Cost of shoes) - (Value of 16 credit points)
= $(80-0.16)
= $79.84
Hence, Griffin charge $79.854 to his credit card when he bought the sneakers.

Find the value of 2.7 ³ - 1.6 ³ - 1.1 ³ using a suitable identity.
Answer:
14.256
See details below
Step-by-step explanation:
2.7 ³ - 1.6 ³ - 1.1 ³
= (2.7 ³ - 1.1 ³) - 1.6 ³ expand difference of two cubes
= (2.7 - 1.1)*(2.7^2 + 2.7*1.1 + 1.1^2) - 1.6 ³
= 1.6*(2.7^2 + 2.7*1.1 + 1.1^2) - 1.6 ³ factor out 1.6
= 1.6*(2.7^2 - 1.6^2 + 2.7*1.1 + 1.1^2) expand difference of two squares
= 1.6*( (2.7 - 1.6)*(2.7 + 1.6) + 2.7*1.1 + 1.1^2)
= 1.6*( 1.1*4.3 + 2.7*1.1 + 1.1^2) factor out 1.1
= 1.6*1.1* ( 4.3 + 2.7 + 1.1)
= 1.6*1.1*8.1 rearrange
= 1.6 * 8.1 * 1.,1
= 16 * 0.81 * 1.1
= (4*0.9)^2 * 1.1
= 3.6^2 * 1.1
= 12.96 * 1.1 36*36=1296
= 14.256
(to multiply by 1.1, mentally start from the right, add the left digit, carry if necessary)

A particle moves along a straight line. The distance of the particle from the origin at time t is modeled by the equation below. s(t)equals2 sine t plus 3 cosine t Find a value of t between 0 and StartFraction pi Over 2 EndFraction that satisfies the equation s(t)equalsStartFraction 2 plus 3 StartRoot 3 EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction .
Answer:
The value of t that will satisfy the equation is π/6 (which is 30 degrees)
Step-by-step explanation:
The function that models the movement of the particle is given as;
S(t) = 2 sin(t) + 3 cos (t)
Now we want to the value of t between 0 and pi/2 that satisfies the equation;
s(t) = (2+ 3√3)/2 = 1 + 3√3/2
What we do here is simply find that value of t that would ensure that;
2sin(t) + 3cos(t) = 1 + 3√3/2
Without any need for rigorous calculations, this value of t can be gotten by inspection.
From our regular trigonometry, we know that the sin of angle 30 is 1/2 and its cos value is √3/2
We can make a substitution for it in this equation.
We obtain the following;
2 sin(30) + 3cos (30) and that is exactly equal to 1 + 3√3/2
Do not forget however that we have a range. And the range in question is between 0 and π/2
Kindly that π/2 in degrees is 90 degrees
So our range of values here is between 0 and 90 degrees.
So to follow the notation in the question, the value within the range that will satisfy the equation is π/6
Move the center of the circle horizontally to the left and then to the right of the y-axis. How does the equation of the circle change as the center crosses the y-axis?
Answer:
The equation of a circle centered in the point (a, b) and with a radius R.
(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = R^2
Then, if you move the circle to the left, then you are decreasing the value of b.
Where b = 0 means that the center of the circle lies on the y-axis.
When you move the graph to the right you will be increasing the value of b.
Answer:
The variable h changes as the center of the circle moves horizontally. The sign of h is negative when the center is to the left of the y-axis and positive when it is to the right of the y-axis. The sign of the variable h flips when the center moves across the y-axis.

Jonathan was laying on the ground and enjoying the shade but now the sun is shining
on him. He knows he is 10 yards away from the building that was shading the sun and
that the building is 8 yards high. At what angle does the sunlight hit the ground? Write
only the number rounded to the nearest degree.
Answer:
38.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the height of the building is 8 yard and the distance between Jonathan and the building is 10 yards.
The sun is at the top of the building, let the distance between Jonathan laying on the ground and the top of the building be x. Using Pythagoras:
x² = 10² + 8²
x² = 100 + 64
x² = 164
x = √164 = 12.86 yards

The graph for the equation y = x minus 4 is shown below. On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, negative 4) and (4, 0). Which equation, when graphed with the given equation, will form a system that has an infinite number of solutions? y minus x = negative 4 y minus x = negative 2 y minus 4 = x y + 4 x = 1 Brainliest reward
Answer:
The correct option is;
y minus x = negative 4
(y - x = -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the line y = x - 4 of the graph passes through the points (0, -4) and (4, 0)
Comparing with the general equation of a straight line, y = m·x + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept gives;
The slope of the equation y = x - 4 = 1
The y-intercept of the equation y = x - 4 = -4
Two equations will have an infinite number of solutions when they are on the same line, that is having the same slope and intercept, we check for the slope and the intercept of the given options as follows;
For y - x = -4, we have;
y = x - 4 which is the same as the given equation and both equations will have an infinite number of solutions
For y - x = -2 we have;
y = x - 2
The slope is the same as the given equation but the intercept is different giving no solution
For y - 4 = x, we have;
y = x + 4
The slope is the same as the given equation but the intercept is different giving no solution
For y + 4x = 1, we have;
y = 1 - 4x
The slope and intercept are different giving one solution.
Answer:
y - x = -4

A set of five integers has unique mode 7, median 9, and arithmetic mean 11. What is the greatest possible value in the set?
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the mean of the set is 11, the sum of the integers in the set must be 11 * 5 = 55. The median must be the 3rd integer, therefore the 3rd integer is 9. Since 9 > 7 and there are only 2 integers less than the median, the 1st and 2nd integers must be 7 and 7 because 7 is the mode. This leaves the last two integers to have a sum of 55 - (9 + 7 + 7) = 32. In order for the last integer (the greatest one) to have the largest value, the fourth integer must be as small as possible. Therefore, the fourth integer is 10 (it can't be 9 because 7 is the only mode) which makes the answer 32 - 10 = 22.

A game has an expected value to you of $1200. It costs $1200 to play, but if you win, you receive $100,000 (including your $1200 bet) for a net gain of $98 comma 800. What is the probability of winning? Would you play this game? Discuss the factors that would influence your decision.
Answer:
A) the probability of winning is 0.24%.
B) Yes i will play the game
C) Despite the fact that the probability of winning is very low, one should play the game because the expected value of the game is positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value of X is denoted by;
E(X) = x1•p1 + x2•p2 +..... xn•pn
Where;
xi is the observation and pi is the probability of xi
Now, let's make p the probability of the winning bet and 1 - p be the probability of losing the game
If the bet is win, the net gain is $98,800 and if the bet is lose, the loss is -$1200.
Hence the probability distribution will be;
For xi = $98,800, pi = p
For xi = -$1,200, pi = 1 - p
So;
E(X) = Σxi.pi
Thus;
1200 = 98800p - 1200(1 - p)
1200 = 98800p - 1200 + 1200p
1200 + 1200 = 100000p
2400 = 100000p
p = 2400/100000
p = 0.024
Thus, the probability of winning is 0.24%.
Despite the fact that the probability of winning is very low, one should play the game because the expected value of the game is positive.
Instructions: Find the measure of the indicated angle to the
nearest degree
Answer:
? = 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
tan ? = opp/ adj
tan ? = 3/7
take the inverse tan of each side
tan ^-1 tan ? = tan ^-1 ( 3/7)
? = 23.19859051
To the nearest degree
? = 23
