What is a solution to the system of equations that includes quadratic function f(x) and linear function g(x)? f(x) = 5x2 x 3

Sagot :

The solutions to the system of equations involving quadratic function f(x) and linear function g(x) are (-1,5) and (4/3,29/3), respectively.

What is a polynomial function?

  • A polynomial function is a relationship in which a dependent variable equals a polynomial expression.
  • A polynomial expression is one that has numbers and variables that are raised to non-negative powers.

To find the solution to the given system of equations:

  • A polynomial expression has the following generic form:
  • a₀ + a₁x + a₂x² + a₃x³ + ... + aₙxⁿ.
  • The degree of the polynomial expression has the greatest power on a variable.
  • When degree = 2, the function is quadratic.
  • When degree = one, the function is linear.

Given quadratic equation: f(x) = 3x^2 + x + 3

  • We must solve the linear equation g(x).
  • Because it is a linear equation, we utilize the two-point approach to solve it.

The two point formula is: y-y₁ = ((y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁))*(x-x₁)

We take the points g(2) = 11, g(1) = 9

g(x) - g(1) = ((g(2)-g(1))/(2-1))*(x-1)

or, g(x) - 9 = ((11-9)/(2-1))*(x-1)

or, g(x) - 9 = 2(x-1)

or, g(x) = 2x - 2 + 9 = 2x + 7

g(x) = 2x +7, is the linear function g(x)

We are asked to solve the system of equations f(x) and g(x).

To get the solution, we must first determine what is the common solution to both f(x) and g(x).

For that, we equate f(x) and g(x).

3x² + x + 3 = 2x + 7

or, 3x² - x - 4 = 0

or, 3x² + 3x - 4x - 4 = 0

or, 3x(x+1) -4(x+1) = 0

or, (3x-4)(x+1) = 0

∴ Either 3x-4=0 ⇒ x = 4/3

or, x+1=0 ⇒ x = -1.

g(-1) = 5 (from the table)

f(-1) = 3(-1)² + (-1) + 3 = 3 - 1 + 3 = 5

g(4/3) = 2(4/3) + 7 = 8/3 + 21/3 = 29/3

f(4/3) = 3*(4/3)² + (4/3) + 3 = 16/3 + 4/3 + 9/3 = 29/3

∴ f(-1) = g(-1) and f(4/3) = g(4/3).

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations that includes quadratic function f(x) and linear function g(x) is (-1,5) and (4/3,29/3).
