A system of equations consists of a quadratic equation and a linear equation. The equations in this system are graphed in the xy-plane above. How many solutions does this system have?
A) 0
B) 1
C) 2
D) 3
▶️ Answer/Explanation
Answer: C
Graph shows a parabola and a line intersecting at two points.
Count intersections: 2 solutions.
In the xy-plane shown, the quadrants are labeled I, II, III, and IV. The graph of \( y = -{(x + h)}^2 + k \), where \( h \) and \( k \) are positive constants, is a parabola. In which quadrant is the vertex of this parabola?
A) Quadrant I
B) Quadrant II
C) Quadrant III
D) Quadrant IV
▶️ Answer/Explanation
Answer: B
Equation: \( y = -{(x + h)}^2 + k \), \( h > 0 \), \( k > 0 \).
Rewrite: \( y = -{(x – (-h))}^2 + k \), vertex at \( (-h, k) \).
\( -h < 0 \), \( k > 0 \), so vertex is in Quadrant II.
Question Medium
What is the graph of the equation \(y=2(3)^{x}\) ?
▶️Answer/Explanation
Ans: A
For $x=0\Rightarrow =2(3)^{0}=2$
For $x=1\Rightarrow =2(3)^{1}=6$
