Which inequality in standard form represents the region greater than the quadratic function with zeros –3 and 6 and includes the point (–2, –16) on the boundary line?

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

y > 2x² - 6x - 36 is the inequality in standard form represents the region greater than the quadratic function with zeros –3 and 6 and includes the point (–2, –16) on the boundary line. This can be obtained by finding zeroes of each inequality to check whether the zeroes are –3 and 6 and then substituting (–2, –16) in the inequality.

Find the required inequality:

To find the zeroes of the inequality we use the formula,

x = (-b ± √b² - 4ac)/ 2a, where a, b and c are the coefficients of x², x and constant respectively.

  • Option 1 : y > 1/2 x² - 3/2x - 9                          

Find the zeroes,

x = (3/2 ± √9/4 + 18)

x = 3/2 ± 9/2

⇒ x = 12/2 = 6, x = -6/2 = - 3

Putting x = –2 in the inequality we get,

1/2 x² - 3/2x - 9 = 1/2 (-2)² - 3/2(-2) - 9

                         = 2 + 3 - 9 = - 4 ≠ -16

Therefore option 1 is incorrect

       

  • Option 2 : y > 2 x² + 6x - 36

Find the zeroes,  

x = (-6 ± √36 + 288) / 4

x = (-6 ± 18) / 4

⇒ x = 12/4 = 3, x = -24/4 = - 6

Therefore option 2 is incorrect

  • Option 3 : y > 2 x² - 6x - 36

Find the zeroes,  

x = (6 ± √36 + 288) / 4

x = (6 ± 18) / 4

⇒ x = 24/4 = 6, x = -12/4 = - 3

Also , Putting x = –2 in the inequality we get,

2 x² - 6x - 36 = 2 (-2)² - 6(-2) - 36

                     = 8 + 12 -36

                     = - 16

The inequality includes the point (–2, –16) on the boundary line.

Hence y > 2x² - 6x - 36 is the inequality in standard form represents the region greater than the quadratic function with zeros –3 and 6 and includes the point (–2, –16) on the boundary line.
