To determine the correct ordered pairs which will agree with the function, we can substitute values to the function and see whether it agree with each other. We do as follows:
<span>(0,1)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^0
</span><span> f(x)=128
</span><span>
(1,64)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^1
</span>f(x) = 64 <--------CORRECT ANSWER<span>
(3,16)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^3
f(x) = 16 <--------CORRECT ANSWER
</span><span>
(8,0.5)
</span><span> f(x)=128(0.5)^8
f(x) = 1/2
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
Hello,
Please, see the attached file.
Thanks.
First off, remember that finding the x-intercepts means setting y equal to zero and solving for the x-values, so this question is really asking you to "Solve 4x2 – 2x – 5 = 0".
Now, let's start the completing-the-square process. To begin, we have the original equation (or, if we had to solve first for "= 0", the "equals zero" form of the equation). In this case, we were asked for the x-intercepts of a quadratic function, which meant that we set the function equal to zero
just divide the number of food you have then go ahead and add the rest
Replace x and solve:
4^2 = 16
4^3 = 64
Now divide the solutions
64/16 = 4
This is an increase of a factor of 4.
ANSWER:
H(x) increases by a factor of 4
