Answer:
We know that our world is in 3 dimensions i.e. there are three directions and so, three co-ordinates are required.
Now, if we have to find a position of an object lying on a flat surface, this means that there are only two directions and so, two co-ordinates are needed.
So, we can define the domain ( xy-axis ) in such a way that there are two axis - horizontal where right area have positive values & left area has negative values and vertical where upward side have positive values & downward side has negative values.
For e.g. if we want to find the position of a pen on the table. We will make our own xy-axis and see in which quadrant the pen lies.
Let us say that the pen lies at (2,3), this means that the position of pen is in the first quadrant or it is 2 units to the right of y-axis and 3 units up to the x-axis.
This way we can see that two directions are sufficient to find the position of an object placed on a flat surface.
Answer:
(2,-17) should be the minimum.
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum of a quadratic function occurs at 
. If a is positive, the minimum value of the function is 
occurs at
Find the value of
x = 2
evaluate f(2).
replace the variable x with 2 in the expression.
simplify the result.
The final answer is -17
Use the x and y values to find where the minimum occurs.
HOPE THIS HELPS!
Answer: Y = 1/4x - 2
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
M is slope, and b is y intercept
Solving slope:
change in y over change in x is slope
The change in y from (0,-2) and (4,-1) is up one over four.
This can be represented as 1/4
Solving y-intercept:
Y-intercept is when x = 0 or when the line touches the y axis
As you can see on the graph, the y intercept is (0,-2) or -2
Final:
Y = 1/4x - 2
Answer:
( - infinity, 4) thats the range hope it helps.
