- Describe the end behavior of each polynomial. (a) y=x38x2+2x15 End behavior: y as x y as x (b) y=2x4+12x+100 End behavior: y as x y as xarrow_forwardGraph the quadratic function f(x)=x2+4x+5 first using the properties as we did in the last section and then graph it using transformations. Which method do you prefer? Why?arrow_forwardFor the following exercises, use the vertex (h, k) and a point on the graph (x, y) to find the general form of the equation of the quadratic function. (h,k)=(2,3),(x,y)=(5,12)arrow_forward
- Put the function Q= (t-2)(t+2) - (t+4)(t-1) in the form Q= it and state the value of karrow_forwardFor an electric car, the number of miles that can be driven powered by only batteries depends on the number of hours of charging the batteries. The function M(h) = 6.2h - 8 gives the number of miles where h is the number of hours on the charger. Compute M(2), M(6), and M(10).arrow_forwardThe small town of Boringville had a population of 5200 in the year 2000. The birth and death rates of the people of Boringville are given by the following functions, where t is given in years after 2000: Birth rate: B(t) = t²e(t+¹)−¹ + 2 Death rate: D(t) = = t5 2t+1 a. What was the population of Boringville at the beginning of the year 2012? Round your answer to the nearest person. b. How many people were born in Boringville between the years 2000 and 2004? Round your answer to the nearest person. C. From the years 2000 to 2012, determine the minimum and maximum population of Boringville. d. At the start of 2007, is the population of Boringville increasing or decreasing?arrow_forward
- A small refreshment stand at the beach sells cans of pop to thirsty people. The number of customers that visit the stand each day is based on the temperature outside. This is modelled by the function C(T) = -0.05(T – 25)² + 30 , where C is the number of customers and T is the temperature (in °C). The average number of beverages that each customer orders, B, is also based on temperature, according to the function B(T) = 1.047. Consider the function A(T) = C(T) × B(T). a) What are the units of A(T)? Explain the meaning of this function.arrow_forwardFind L{t?e-4t - e-2tsin (v2t)}arrow_forwardThe weekly profit P for a widget producer is a function of the number n of widgets sold. The formula is as follows, where P is measured in thousands of dollars, n is measured in thousands of widgets, and the formula is valid up to a level of 12 thousand widgets sold. P = −1 + 2.6n − 0.2n2 Exercise (a) Make a graph of P versus n. Step 1 Because the formula is valid for up to 12 thousand widgets sold, we make the graph using a horizontal span of 0 to . The table of values below led us to choose a vertical span of -2 to 8. The graph is on below. The horizontal axis corresponds to the variable which is thousands of widgets sold, and the vertical axis corresponds to the variable which is weekly profit measured in thousands of dollars. n P 0 -1.00 3.25 5.34 6.50 7.45 9.25 5.94 12.00 1.40 Select the correct graph. Exercise (b) Calculate P(0) and explain in practical terms what your answer means. Exercise (c)…arrow_forward
- Find the indicated function value: a. f(6) for f(x) = 4x + 5 b. g(-5) for g(x) = 3x² – 10 c. h(-4) for h(r) = r² – 7r + 2 d. F(a + h) for F(x) = 6x + 9.arrow_forwardPlease help me with this question.arrow_forwardPart 3. A drug is administered to a patient through an injection. The drug concentration (in milligrams per milliliter) in the 15r²(x+14) ³+150 bloodstream thours after the injection is given by C(1) = a. Use a graphing tool (GeoGebra) to show the graph of C(1) in the context of the situation. The graph should have its independent variable (t) for the horizontal axis with an interval of ten (10) units up to the value one hundred fifty (150), and the drug concentration C(1) for the vertical axis with an interval of five (5) units up to the value forty (40). Place the label of the graph on the upper right hand part of the cartesian plane. b. Construct a table of values to show the drug concentration in the patient's bloodstream for the first day. The value of the independent variable (t) should have one (1) hour as the interval and write or give the value of C() in its exact form along with the numerical value up to five (5) decimal places rounded off. c. What will be the drug…arrow_forward
