When analyzing the impact of unit price on supply and demand, it's notable that an increase in price typically leads to a decrease in demand. For instance, a local newspaper with 84,000 subscribers at a $30 quarterly charge may lose subscribers if the price is raised.

Using a Quadratic Equation in an Application Involving Area

given an application involving revenue, use a quadratic to find the maximum
Projectile Problems

The height of an object launched upward, ignoring the effects of air resistance, can be modeled with the following formula:

height=−12gt2+v0t+s0

Using function notation, which is more appropriate, we have

With this formula, the height can be calculated at any given time t after the object is launched. The coefficients represent the following:

−12g The letter g represents the acceleration due to gravity.

v0 “ v -naught” represents the initial velocity of the object.

s0 “ s -naught” represents the initial height from which the object is launched

We consider only problems where the acceleration due to gravity can be expressed as g=32 ft/sec 2 . Therefore, in this section time will be measured in seconds and the height in feet. Certainly though, the formula is valid using units other than these.

when working with geometry problems, it is helpful to draw a picture. Below are some area formulas that you are expected to know. (Recall that π≈3.14 .)
Write a quadratic equation for revenue.

Find the vertex of the quadratic equation.

Determine the y -value of the vertex.

finding maximum revenue
example

The unit price of an item affects its supply and demand. That is, if the unit price goes up, the demand for the item will usually decrease. For example, a local newspaper currently has 84,000 subscribers at a quarterly charge of $30. Market research has suggested that if the owners raise the price to $32, they would lose 5,000 subscribers.

Assuming that subscriptions are linearly related to the price, what price should the newspaper charge for a quarterly subscription to maximize their revenue?

we knew the number of subscribers to a newspaper and used that information to find the optimal price for each subscription. What if the price of subscriptions is affected by competition?

Previously, we found a quadratic function that modeled revenue as a function of price. Revenue− 2,500p2+159,000p We found that selling the paper at $31.80 per subscription would maximize revenue. What if your closest competitor sells their paper for $25.00 per subscription? What is the maximum revenue you can make you sell your paper for the same?

Introduction to Quadratic Equations and the Zero Product Property

Quadratic Equations
ust like a linear equation in one variable is an equation that is equivalent to (a linear expression =0 ), a quadratic equation is an equation in one variable, is an equation that is equivalent to ( a quadratic expression =0 ), and the equation isn't equivalent to a linear equation. For example, suppose that the area of a rectangular region with the length 3 feet more than twice its width (in feet) is equal to a square region of the twice the width of the other. We don't know what the width is (let's call it w ) but we can write down this assertion about the width.

So the area of the rectangular region is length times width, which in terms of the unknown w is (2w+3)w or 2w2+3w

Now, this looks like a quadratic equation, at least on the surface, but we need to make sure it isn't a linear equation in disguise so we subtract 4w2 from both sides of the equation to get 0=−2w2+3w.

e will not show this in detail, but an equation of the form 0= (something quadratic) is not a linear equation. This is the assertion about the width in the problem! Whatever w is, it satisfies the equation 0=−2w2+3w. For example, w≠1 since if it were, −2w2+3w=−2(1)2+3(1)=1 which is not 0 as asserted. Our question is then, how do you find the width (so that if you substitute that width in for w the assertion is true! In general we will be interested in finding the solutions to quadratic equations.

If the length of the rectangular region is 3 more than twice its width, then its length is 2w+3

The area of a square region with width w is (2w)2 or, 4x2

Expressions

2x+1 , 0 2x+1=0 (linear equation) x2 x−2 x2=x−2 (quadratic equation) 3x2+5x−1 0 3x2+5x−1=0 (quadratic equation)

A solution to an equation in a variable (lets call it x ) is a number that we can substitute in for x that makes the equation true. Two equations are equivalent if they have the same solutions. A quadratic equation with one variable, say, x , has polynomials on both sides of the equation and can be written in standard form: Ax2+Bx+C=0 where A is not zero, i.e., there is an equivalent equation of the form Ax2+Bx+C=0
The Zero Product Property simply states that if ab=0 , then either a=0 or b=0 (or both). A product of factors is zero if and only if one or more of the factors is zero. This is particularly useful when solving quadratic equations .

Now, by the zero product property, either x+5=0 or x−4=0 which means either x=−5 or x=4 These are the two solutions of the equation.

You can factor the left side as: (x+5)(x−4)=0

Suppose you want to solve the equation x2+x−20=0

What is Complex Number?

Imaginary Number Rules

Consider the pure quadratic equation: x 2 = a, where ‘a’ is a known value. Its solution may be presented as x = √a. Therefore, the rules for some imaginary numbers

i = √-1 i2 = -1 i3 = -i i4 = +1 i4n = 1 i4n-1= -i

Consider an example, a+bi is a complex number. For a +bi, the conjugate pair is a-bi. The complex roots exist in pairs so that when multiplied, it becomes equations with real coefficients.

Operations on Imaginary Numbers

Subtraction of Numbers Having Imaginary Numbers

When c+di is subtracted from a+bi, the answer is done like in addition. It means, grouping all the real terms separately and imaginary terms separately and doing simplification. Here, (a+bi)-(c+di) = (a-c) +i(b-d).

Addition of Numbers Having Imaginary Numbers

When two numbers, a+bi, and c+di are added, then the real parts are separately added and simplified, and then imaginary parts separately added and simplified. Here, the answer is (a+c) + i(b+d).

Multiplication of Numbers Having Imaginary Numbers

Consider (a+bi)(c+di) It becomes: (a+bi)(c+di) = (a+bi)c + (a+bi)di = ac+bci+adi+bdi2 = (ac-bd)+i(bc+ad)

Division of Numbers Having Imaginary Numbers

Consider the division of one imaginary number by another. (a+bi) / ( c+di) Multiply both the numerator and denominator by its conjugate pair, and make it real. So, it becomes (a+bi) / ( c+di) = (a+bi) (c-di) / ( c+di) (c-di) = [(ac+bd)+ i(bc-ad)] / c2 +d2.

Imaginary Numbers Example

Solve the imaginary number i7

The given imaginary number is i7 Now, split the imaginary number into terms, and it becomes i7 = i2 × i2 × i2 × i i7 = -1 × -1 × -1 × i i7 = -1 × i i7 = – i Therefore, i7 is – i. Keep visiting BYJU’S – The Learning App and also register with it to watch all the interactive videos.

The basic arithmetic operations in Mathematics are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Let us discuss these operations on imaginary numbers. Let us assume the two complex numbers: a + bi and c + di

Complex numbers are the combination of both real numbers and imaginary numbers. The complex number is of the standard form: a + bi Where a and b are real numbers i is an imaginary unit. Real Numbers Examples : 3, 8, -2, 0, 10 Imaginary Number Examples: 3i, 7i, -2i, √i Complex Numbers Examples: 3 + 4 i, 7 – 13.6 i, 0 + 25 i = 25 i, 2 + i.

The imaginary unit or unit imaginary number (i) is a solution to the quadratic equation x2 + 1 = 0. Although there is no real number with this property, i can be used to extend the real numbers to what are called complex numbers, using addition and multiplication. A simple example of the use of i in a complex number is 2 + 3i.

Imaginary numbers are an important mathematical concept;

imaginary numbers are numbers that are not real. We know that the quadratic equation is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0, where the discriminant is b2 – 4ac. Whenever the discriminant is less than 0, finding square root becomes necessary for us. Here, we are going to discuss the definition of imaginary numbers, rules and its basic arithmetic operations

Imaginary Numbers Definition

Imaginary numbers are the numbers when squared it gives the negative result. In other words, imaginary numbers are defined as the square root of the negative numbers where it does not have a definite value. It is mostly written in the form of real numbers multiplied by the imaginary unit called “i”.

Introduction to Quadratic Functions and Vertex Form

Graphing a Parabola Given an Equation in Vertex Form
we have to first find the vertex for the given equation. This can be done by using x=-b/2a and y = f(-b/2a). Plotting the graph, when the quadratic equation is given in the form of f(x) = a(x-h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola, is its vertex form.

The general equation of a parabola is: y = a(x-h)2 + k or x = a(y-k)2 +h, where (h,k) denotes the vertex.

Graphing a Parabola Given its Equation in Standard Form
A quadratic function in standard form looks like this: f(x)=ax^2+bx+c, where a, b, and c are constants. You can also express a quadratic function in standard form as y=ax^2+bx+c (note that we will be using f(x)= and y= interchangeable in this guide). Graphing a parabola on the coordinate plane by using its formula is an important algebra skill
Vertex
Vertex Formula for a parabola, (h,k)=(− 2a b ,− 4aD ), determines the vertex coordinates (h, k) using the coefficients a, b, and c in the equation y=ax 2 +bx+c, where D=b 2 −4ac.

Formula:

The parabola’s Vertex Formula serves to determine the coordinates of the point where the parabola intersects its axis of symmetry, known as the vertex, denoted as (h, k). The standard equation for a parabola is represented as y = ax2 + bx + c. When the coefficient of x2 is positive, the vertex is positioned at the lowest point of the U-shaped curve, whereas a negative coefficient places the vertex at the highest point of the U-shaped curve.

The vertex corresponds to the minimum point when the parabola opens upward or the maximum point when it opens downward, marking the turning point where the parabola changes its direction. Exploring the vertex formula further and working through examples will enhance understanding of its application in solving parabolic equations.

The Vertex Formula is instrumental in determining the coordinates of the vertex for a parabola. The standard parabolic equation is expressed as y = ax2 + bx + c. In the vertex form of the parabola, it’s represented as y = a(x – h)2 + k. The vertex coordinates (h, k) can be found using two methods: (h,k)=(− 2a b ,− 4a D ), where D (the discriminant) = b 2 −4ac (h,k) can be found by setting h=− 2a b and then evaluating y at h to determine the value of

Derivation of Vertex Formulas

tarting with the standard form of a parabola, y = ax2 + bx + c, the conversion to the vertex form y = a(x – h)^2 + k is achieved by completing the square. First, by subtracting c from both sides, we get: y – c = ax2 + bx Factoring out ‘a’: y – c = a(x2 + b/a x) Identifying half of the coefficient of x as b/2a and its square as b2/4a2, we add and subtract this term within the parentheses on the right side: y – c = a(x2 + b/a x + b2/4a2 – b2/4a2)

This expression simplifies to: y – c = a((x + b/2a)2 – b2/4a2) E Expanding and rearranging terms, adding ‘c’ to both sides: y = a(x + b/2a)2 – b2/4a + c y = a(x + b/2a)2 – (b2 – 4ac) / (4a) Comparing this with the vertex form y = a(x – h)2 + k, the following vertex values are derived: h = -b/2a k = -(b2 – 4ac) / (4a)

Deriving the Vertex Formula
the Vertex Formula is derived from the completion of the square method applied to the standard parabolic equation y = ax^2 + bx + c.

This process leads to the vertex form y = a(x - h)^2 + k, where h = -b / (2a) and k = - (b^2 - 4ac) / (4a).

Forms of Quadratic Functions

A quadratic function is a function of degree two. The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola. The general form of a quadratic function is f(x)=ax2+bx+c where a, b and are real numbers and a≠0 The standard form of a quadratic function is f(x)=a(x−h)2+k The vertex (h,k) is located at h=–b2a,k=f(h)=f(−b2a

understanding How the Graphs of Parabolas are Related to Their Quadratic Functions

where a b and c are real numbers and a≠0 If a>0 the parabola opens upward. If a<0 the parabola opens downward. We can use the general form of a parabola to find the equation for the axis of symmetry.

The standard form of a quadratic function presents the function in the form

where (h,k) is the vertex. Because the vertex appears in the standard form of the quadratic function, this form is also known as the vertex form of a quadratic function.

Recognizing Characteristics of Parabolas

Recognizing Basic Functions

Originally identified by Henri Fayol as five elements, there are now four commonly accepted functions of management that encompass these necessary skills: planning, organizing, leading, and controlling
inspects the graph to see if any vertical line drawn would intersect the curve more than once. If there is any such line, the graph does not represent a function. If no vertical line can intersect the curve more than once, the graph does represent a function.

The three major functional operations of an organization include marketing, finance, and operations.

A function is a special type of relation where each x value is related to only one y value. To identify a function from a relation, check to see if any of the x values are repeated - if not, it is a function.
A function is a relation where each input value (x-value) has only one output (y-value). Thus, all functions are relations. But, not all relations are functions because not all will meet the requirement that each unique input creates only one output .

Solving a Polynomial Equations Using Factoring by Grouping

Factoring by Grouping
Factoring by grouping is a means to factor a polynomial by grouping the terms of the polynomial into pairs and factoring from each pair.
Applying the Vertex Formula and Graphing a Parabola
In the equation y=a(x−h)2+k , the point (h,k) is your vertex. It is either the highest or lowest point on your graph, and it is the first thing you need to graph. Secondly, you need to find the direction of the graph. If your a value in the above equation is negative , then the equation opens downwards

General Form of a parabola is y = ax2 + bx + c. In order to find the vertex from this form, you must first find the x-coordinate of the vertex which is x = - b/2a. After you find the x-coordinate of the vertex, you will take this number and substitute for x in the parabola equation.

What is the formula for the vertex form of a parabola?

Vertex Form of Parabola. We know that the standard form of the parabola is y=ax2+bx+c. Thus, the vertex form of a parabola is y = a(x-h)2 + k.

Given the focus (h,k) and the directrix y=mx+b, the equation for a parabola is (y - mx - b)^2 / (m^2 +1) = (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2.

Get the equation in the form y = ax2 + bx + c. Calculate -b / 2a. This is the x-coordinate of the vertex. To find the y-coordinate of the vertex, simply plug the value of -b / 2a into the equation for x and solve for y.

The vertex is the turning point of the graph. We can see that the vertex is at (3,1) ( 3 , 1 ) . The axis of symmetry is the vertical line that intersects the parabola at the vertex.

If you are given factored form you need to take the product of your a and b value. A positive value means the parabola opens up, and a negative value means the parabola opens down.

The axis of symmetry always passes through the vertex of the parabola . The -coordinate of the vertex is the equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola. For a quadratic function in standard form, y = a x 2 + b x + c , the axis of symmetry is a vertical line x = − b 2 a

Subtovertex is the highest or lowest point on a parabola, its y-coordinate is the maximum value or minimum value of the function. The vertex of a parabola lies on the axis of the parabola. So, the graph of the function is increasing on one side of the axis and decreasing on the other sidepic

The zeros of a parabola are the points on the parabola that intersect the line y = 0 (the horizontal x-axis).

The discriminant formula is d=b^2-4ac given the equation of the quadratic is f(x)=ax^2+bx+c.

Introduction to Symmetry

Symmetry with respect to Origin
say that a graph is symmetric with respect to the origin if for every point (a,b) on the graph, there is also a point (−a,−b) on the graph; hence

f(x,y)=f(−x,−y)

Subtopic

Symmetry
say that a graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis if for every point (a,b) on the graph, there is also a point (−a,b) on the graph; hence f(x,y)=f(−x,y)

Visually we have that the y-axis acts as a mirror for the graph. We will demonstrate several functions to test for symmetry graphically using the graphing calculator!

Symmetric with respect to the x-axis

f(x,y)=f(x,−y).

We say that a graph is symmetric with respect to the x axis if for every point (a,b) on the graph, there is also a point (a,−b) on the graph; hence

Intercepts
We define the x intercepts as the points on the graph where the graph crosses the x axis. If a point is on the x axis, then the y coordinate of the point is 0. Hence to find the x intercepts, we set y=0 solve.

Introduction to Even and Odd Functions
A function is said to be an odd function if its graph is symmetric with respect to the origin. Visually, this means that you can rotate the figure about the origin, and it remains unchanged. Another way to visualize origin symmetry is to imagine a reflection about the -axis, followed by a reflection across the -axis. If this leaves the graph of the function unchanged, the graph is symmetric with respect to the origin. For example, the function graphed below is an odd function.

Determining Whether a Function is Even, Odd, or Neither

even functions are symmetrical about the y-axis: f(x)=f(-x). Odd functions are symmetrical about the x- and y-axis: f(x)=-f(-x).

Determine whether the function satisfies f(x)=f(−x) f ( x ) = f ( − x ) . If it does, it is even. Determine whether the function satisfies f(x)=−f(−x) f ( x ) = − f ( − x ) . If it does, it is odd. If the function does not satisfy either rule, it is neither even nor odd.

Evaluating Piecewise Function

piecewise-defined function is one which is defined not by a single equation, but by two or more.

A piecewise function is a function built from pieces of different functions over different intervals. For example, we can make a piecewise function f(x) where f(x) = -9 when -9 < x ≤ -5, f(x) = 6 when -5 < x ≤ -1, and f(x) = -7 when -1.

The basic idea behind piecewise linear regression is that if the data follow different linear trends over different regions of the data then we should model the regression function in "pieces."

summary. A piecewise function is a function where more than one formula is used to define the output over different pieces of the domain.

A piecewise function is a function that is defined on a sequence of intervals. A common example is the absolute value

How to graph the given piecewise-defined function?

The method for graphing piecewise functions involves first identifying the intervals the describe each of the subdomains. Then, correlate each subfunction with each of these intervals. Next, graph each of the subfunctions on their subdomains omitting any points that are not in the interval.

piecewise function is the absolute value function. The absolute value function can be written as f ( x ) = | x | . This function has three different pieces, x for all values less than 1, x 2 for all values between 1 and 3 (including 1 and 3) and finally, x + 3 for all values greater than three.

Increasing and Decreasing Functions

Decreasing Function - A function f(x) is said to be decreasing on an interval I if for any two numbers x and y in I such that x < y, we have f(x) ≥ f(y).

Increasing Function - A function f(x) is said to be increasing on an interval I if for any two numbers x and y in I such that x < y, we have f(x) ≤ f(y).

For each piece of the domain, graph on that interval using the corresponding equation pertaining to that piece.

Given a piecewise function, sketch a graph. Indicate on the x− axis the boundaries defined by the intervals on each piece of the domain.

To evaluate a piecewise function at any given input, first, see which of the given intervals (or inequalities) the given input belongs to. Then just substitute the given input in the function definition corresponding to that particular interval.

algebraic definition

Algebraically, a function is even if for all possible values. For example, for the even function below, notice how the -axis symmetry ensures that for all

Algebraically, a function is odd if for all possible values. For example, for the odd function below, notice how the function's symmetry ensures that f(-x) is always the opposite of f(x)

A function is said to be an even function if its graph is symmetric with respect to the -axis.
Origin Symmetry
Example

For y=x3 we replace with (−y)=(−x)3 so that −y=−x3 or y=x3 Hence y=x3 is symmetric with respect to the origin.

x-axis Symmetry
To test algebraically if a graph is symmetric with respect to the x-axis, we replace all the y 's with −y and see if we get an equivalent expression.

Example

x−2y=5

we replace with

x−2(−y)=5

Which is not equivalent to the original expression. So

Is not symmetric with respect to the x-axis.

How do you explain increasing and decreasing functions?

Function f is increasing in [p, q] if f′(x) > 0 for each x ∈ (p, q). Function f is decreasing in [p, q] if f′(x) < 0 for each x ∈.

Determining the Intervals over Which a Function Increases, Decreases, or Constant with Closed Intervals

So if we want to find the intervals where a function increases or decreases, we take its derivative an analyze it to find where it's positive or negative

How can we tell if a function is increasing or decreasing?

If f′(x)<0 on an open interval, then f is decreasing on the interval.

a function is increasing on an interval if the function values increase as the input values increase within that interval.

Determining the Intervals over Which a Function Increases, Decreases, or is Constant with Open Intervals

The intervals where a function is increasing (or decreasing) correspond to the intervals where its derivative is positive (or negative). So if we want to find the intervals where a function increases or decreases, we take its derivative an analyze it to find where it's positive or negative

If f′(x)>0 on an open interval, then f is increasing on the interval.

The intervals where a function is increasing (or decreasing) correspond to the intervals where its derivative is positive (or negative).
