p72 #1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12, 15, 19, 21, 23  Quadratic Chapter Review

 

1a) The sequence forms an arithmetic sequence because there is a common difference

b) t1 = 4, d = 7

tn = t1 + d(n-1)

tn = 4 + 7(n-1) = 4 + 7n – 7 = 7n – 3

t50 = 7(50) – 3 = 350 – 3 = 347

c) 1000 = 7n – 3

1000 + 3 = 7n

1003/7 = n

143.2 = n

t144 is slightly more than n.

 

3.  There are many possible solutions for this question.  One solution would be {3, 7, 15, 27, 43 }.

 

5. 100 = 3(x + 3x) + 3(y + 2y)

100 = 12 x + 9 y

9y = 100 – 12 x

y = 100/9 – 12/9 x

A= l x w

A = (x + 3x) (y + 2y)

A = (4x)(3y)

A = (4x) 3(100/9 – 12/9 x)

A = (4x)(100/3 – 4x)

A = 400x/3 – 16x2

Use a graphing calculator to find the rest

9.

a) Vertical Stretch: 3

Vertex: (-2, 9)

Axis of Symmetry: x = -2

Minimum Value: 9

 

b) Vertical Stretch: 1/2

Vertex: (1, -1/2)

Axis of Symmetry: x = 1

Minimum Value: -1/2

 

c) Vertical Stretch: -4

Vertex: (-1, 5)

Axis of Symmetry: x = -1

Maximum Value: 5

 

d) Vertical Stretch: -1

Vertex: (-1, 5)

Axis of Symmetry: x = -1

Maximum Value: 5

 

11. 4x + y = 120

y = 120 - 4x

Product = (x)(120 - 4x)

Product = 120x – 4x2

To find the max product we need the vertex.

So the x-coordinate of the vertex tells us the x-value that makes the maximum product.

We still need the y value that will make the maximum product.

y = 120 - 4x

y = 120 – 4(15)

y = 120 – 60 = 60

So x = 15 and y = 60.  The maximum product is 900 (the k value).

 

12.  You know the x-coordinate of the vertex (h) and two points on the parabola (two x and y values).

Create two equations with two unknows (k and a) and solve for k (the y-coordinate of the vertex).

y = 18

a) 2 x-intercepts; 0.67 and 2.25

b) no x-intercepts

c) two x-intercepts; -0.69 and 8.69

d) two x-intercepts; -0.33 and 0.5

e) one x-intercept; -0.25

 

21. At x = 20, the rocket has an altitude 90 m.  It clears the building by 5 m.

 

23. Let x = length of the court

Let y = width of the court

The court is 18.21 m wide by 36.79 m long.
