Coach Bennet’s high school basketball team has 14 players, consisting of six juniors and eight seniors. Coach Bennet must select three players from the team to participate in a summer basketball clinic.

Part A

[tex]4x^2 -7x-15=0\\\\(4x+5)(x-3)=0\\\\x=-\frac{5}{4}, 3[/tex]

So, the x-intercepts are [tex]\boxed{\left(-\frac{5}{4}, 0 \right), (3,0)}[/tex]

Part B

The vertex will be a minimum because the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] is positive.

The x-coordinate of the vertex is [tex]x=-\frac{-7}{2(4)}=\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Substituting this back into the function, we get [tex]f\left(\frac{7}{8} \right)=4\left(\frac{7}{8} \right)^2 -7\left(\frac{7}{8} \right)^2 -15=-\frac{289}{16}[/tex]

So, the coordinates of the vertex are [tex]\boxed{\left(\frac{7}{8}, -\frac{289}{16} \right)}[/tex]

Part C

Plot the vertex and the x-intercepts and draw a parabola that passes through these three points.

The graph is shown in the attached image.

Answer:

109x

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 109 students in the fourth grade, who each have x cupcakes. In order to find the total amount of cupcakes, we could add all of the cupcakes together to get:

x + x + x + x + .... x

109 times because there are 109 students.

This can be simplified to become 109x.

The value of a = 11

What is complex numbers ?

Let  a + i b = (a,b)

       c + i d = (c , d)

the distance between two points = [tex]\sqrt{( a - c)^{2} + (b -d )^{2} }[/tex]

put values in the formula -

[tex]\sqrt{(a- (-9))^{2} + (3 - 24 )^{2} }[/tex] = 29

square both sides

[tex]{(a + 9)^{2} + (21)^{2} } = 29^{2}[/tex]

(a + 9)² = 841 - 441 ⇒ 400

(a + 9) = √400 = + 20

a =  +20 -9

So,  a = -29  or 11

Therefore, the value of a = 11

The midpoint of PQ is (1, -0.5)

The coordinates of the point 2/3 of the way from p to q are (-0.2, 0.4)

What is the midpoint of a line segment?

the midpoint is the middle point of a line segment. It is equidistant from both endpoints.

The midpoint of PQ

To calculate this, we use the midpoint formula;

(x,y) = {(x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2}

From the question; (x1,y1) = (-5,4) and (x2,y2) = (7,-5)

So (x,y) = (-5+7)/2 , (4-5)/2 = 2/2, -1/2 = (1,-0.5)

The coordinates of the midpoint of PQ are (1,-0.5)

What is the internal division of the line segment?

we will use here the internal division formula of the section formula;

Mathematically the coordinates can be calculated using the formula;

(x,y) = (mx2 + nx1)/m+ n , (my2 + ny1)/m + n

in this case, m = 2 and n = 3

(x1,y1) = (-5,4)

(x2,y2) = (7,-5)

So substituting these values, we have;

(x,y) = (2(7)+ 3(-5))/(2+3) , 2(-5) + 3(4)/(2+3)

(x,y) = (14 -15)/5 , (-10 + 12)/5

= (-1/5, 2/5) = (-0.2, 0.4)

There are 18c4 ways that RSM wants to send 4 of its 18 teachers into a conference. that means there are 3060 ways to send

there are 18 teachers and RSM wants to send 4 mem out of 18

so, we use combinatorics for this

Combinatorics is the branch of Mathematics dealing with the study of finite or countable discrete structures. It includes the enumeration or counting of objects having certain properties. Counting helps us solve several types of problems such as counting the number of available IPv4 or IPv6 addresses.

It is used to find solutions easily for possible ways of a problem

For that we are using the formula for combinatorics

NCr = n!/ (r! (n – r)!)

similarly 18c4 = 18!/ (4! (18 – 4)!)

                       = 3060

The formula for the linear function which is passing the points (0, 5) and (1, 20) is f(x) = 15x + 5.

According to the given question.

The linear form of the function is

f(x) = mx + b

Also, the function is passing through the points (0, 5) and (1, 20).

So, the given points (0, 5) and (1, 20) must satisfy f(x) = mx + b.

Now,

At (0, 5)

f(0) = m(0) + b

⇒ 5 = 0 + b

⇒ b = 5 ..(i)

Also,

at (1, 20)

f(1) = m(1) + b

⇒ 20 = m + 5     (from i)

⇒ m = 20 - 5

⇒ m = 15

Therefore, the formula for the linear function which is passing the points (0, 5) and (1, 20) is given by

f(x) = 15(x) + 5   (on substituting the vale of m and b in f(x) = mx + b).

⇒ f(x) = 15x + 5

Hemce, the formula of the function is f(x) = 15x + 5.

The system of equations to find the value of x, the first number, and y, the second number are;

y = -x + 84

y = x² + 6

The system of equation are equations that contains more than two equation and unknown.

Let the two unknown numbers x and y

If the sum of two numbers is 84, hence;

x +y = 84

y = -x + 84

If the square of the first number is 6 more than the second number, hence;

x² = y + 6

Substitute equation 2 into 2 to have:

x² = y + 6

x² = (-x+84) + 6

x² = -x+84 + 6

x² +x+84 + 6  = 0

The direction of the parabola is determined by the leading coefficient of the polynomial (a > 0 - Upwards, a < 0 - Downwards). The y-intercept of the polynomial is c and the two zeros of the polynomial are x = - b / (2 · a) ± [1 / (2 · a)] · √(b² - 4 · a · c).

Herein we have a quadratic equation of the form f(x) = a · x² + b · x + c. To determine the direction of the parabola, we must transform this expression into its vertex form and looking for the sign of the vertex constant:

f(x) = a · x² + b · x + c

f(x) = a · [x² + (b / a) · x + (c / a)]

f(x) + b² / (4 · a) - c = a · [x² + (b / a) · x + b² / (4 · a²)]

f(x) + b² / (4 · a) - c = a · [x + b / (2 · a)]²

If a > 0, then the direction of the parabola is upwards, but if a < 0, then the direction of the parabola is downwards.

The y-intercept is found by evaluating the quadratic equation at x = 0:

f(0) = a · 0² + b · 0 + c

f(0) = c

And the zeros are determined by the quadratic formula:

x = - b / (2 · a) ± [1 / (2 · a)] · √(b² - 4 · a · c)

The direction of the parabola is determined by the leading coefficient of the polynomial (a > 0 - Upwards, a < 0 - Downwards). The y-intercept of the polynomial is c and the two zeros of the polynomial are x = - b / (2 · a) ± [1 / (2 · a)] · √(b² - 4 · a · c).

Considering the given function in the problem, it is found that:

The function gives the relationship between the number of adult female rabbits F and the number of offspring R as follows:

[tex]R = 3 + \frac{350F}{F + 625}[/tex]

When there are 12 female rabbits, we have that F = 12, hence:

9.6 offspring survive to maturity when there are 12 female rabbits in the population.

For at least 13 offspring, we have that the number of rabbits needed is given as follows:
