### Question 9 # Explanation: ## Step1: Understand matrix element notation In a matrix $ A = [a_{ij}] $, $ a_{ij} $ represents the element in the $ i $-th row and $ j $-th column. For $ a_{23} $, we need the element in the 2nd row and 3rd column of matrix $ A $. ## Step2: Identify the element The matrix $ A $ is: $$ A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 7 & 0 \ 8 & 4 & -6 \ 0 & -4 & 6 \end{bmatrix} $$ The 2nd row is $ [8, 4, -6] $ and the 3rd column element in this row is $ -6 $. # Answer: d. $-6$ ### Question 10 # Explanation: ## Step1: Understand matrix element notation For $ a_{12} $, it is the element in the 1st row and 2nd column of matrix $ A $. ## Step2: Identify the element The matrix $ A $ is: $$ A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 2 & 4 \ -5 & 3 & 8 \ 7 & -2 & 9 \end{bmatrix} $$ The 1st row is $ [2, 2, 4] $ and the 2nd column element in this row is $ 2 $. # Answer: b. $2$ ### Question 11 # Explanation: ## Step1: Recall the vertex form of a parabola The function $ y = 2(x + 2)^2 - 3 $ is in vertex form $ y = a(x - h)^2 + k $, where $ (h, k) $ is the vertex. Here, $ a = 2 > 0 $, so the parabola opens upwards, meaning it has a minimum value at the vertex. ## Step2: Determine the vertex, domain, and range The vertex is $ (-2, -3) $, so the minimum value is $ -3 $. The domain of a quadratic function is all real numbers. Since the parabola opens upwards, the range is all real numbers greater than or equal to the minimum value, i.e., $ y \geq -3 $. # Answer: d. minimum value: $-3$; domain: all real numbers; range: all real numbers $\geq -3$ ### Question 12 # Explanation: ## Step1: Recall the formula for the vertex of a parabola For a quadratic function $ y = ax^2 + bx + c $, the $ x $-coordinate of the vertex is $ x = -\frac{b}{2a} $. Here, $ a = 2 $, $ b = 28 $, so $ x = -\frac{28}{2 \times 2} = -7 $. ## Step2: Find the minimum value Substitute $ x = -7 $ into the function $ y = 2x^2 + 28x - 8 $: $$ y = 2(-7)^2 + 28(-7) - 8 = 2(49) - 196 - 8 = 98 - 196 - 8 = -106 $$ Since $ a = 2 > 0 $, the parabola opens upwards, so the minimum value is $ -106 $ and the range is $ y \geq -106 $. # Answer: c. minimum value: $-106$; range: $ y \geq -106 $ ### Question 13 # Explanation: ## Step1: Factor the quadratic function Factor $ y = x^2 - 2x - 48 $. We need two numbers that multiply to $ -48 $ and add to $ -2 $. The numbers are $ -8 $ and $ 6 $, so: $$ y = (x - 8)(x + 6) $$ ## Step2: Find the roots Set $ y = 0 $: $ (x - 8)(x + 6) = 0 $, so the roots are $ x = 8 $ and $ x = -6 $. ## Step3: Determine where the function is positive Since the coefficient of $ x^2 $ is positive, the parabola opens upwards. The function is positive when $ x < -6 $ or $ x > 8 $. Wait, but let's check the options. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, factoring: $ x^2 - 2x - 48 = (x - 8)(x + 6) $. So the roots are $ x = 8 $ and $ x = -6 $. For a parabola opening upwards, the function is positive outside the roots, i.e., $ x < -6 $ or $ x > 8 $. But looking at the options, option c is $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $ (wait, no, option c is $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $? Wait, no, the options are: a. $ x < 6 $ and $ x > 8 $ b. $ -6 < x < 8 $ c. $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $ (wait, no, original option c: $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $? Wait, no, the original problem's option c: "c. $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $"? Wait, no, let's recheck the problem. Wait, the function is $ y = x^2 - 2x - 48 $. Factoring: $ (x - 8)(x + 6) $, so roots at $ x = 8 $ and $ x = -6 $. So the parabola opens upwards, so it's positive when $ x < -6 $ or $ x > 8 $. But the options: Wait, maybe a typo in the options? Wait, the options are: a. $ x < 6 $ and $ x > 8 $ b. $ -6 < x < 8 $ c. $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $ d. $ 6 < x < 8 $ Wait, maybe the original function was $ y = x^2 - 2x - 48 $, but maybe I misread. Wait, let's solve $ x^2 - 2x - 48 > 0 $. The roots are $ x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{4 + 192}}{2} = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{196}}{2} = \frac{2 \pm 14}{2} $, so $ x = 8 $ or $ x = -6 $. So the solution is $ x < -6 $ or $ x > 8 $. But none of the options match? Wait, maybe the function is $ y = x^2 - 2x - 48 $, but the options have $ x < 6 $ and $ x > 8 $ (option a), $ -6 < x < 8 $ (option b), $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $ (option c), $ 6 < x < 8 $ (option d). Wait, maybe there's a mistake in the problem, but assuming the options are as given, and maybe a typo in the function. Wait, if the function was $ y = x^2 - 14x + 48 $, then factoring: $ (x - 6)(x - 8) $, roots at 6 and 8, then positive when $ x < 6 $ or $ x > 8 $, which is option a. But the original function is $ y = x^2 - 2x - 48 $. Wait, maybe the problem has a typo. But given the options, the closest is option a? Wait, no. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's check the options again. Wait, the original problem's option c: "c. $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $" – no, that's not possible. Wait, maybe the option c is $ x > 8 $ and $ x < -6 $, but written as $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $ (typo). Alternatively, maybe the function is $ y = x^2 - 10x + 24 $, but no. Wait, given the options, the correct answer should be that the function is positive when $ x < -6 $ or $ x > 8 $, but none of the options match. Wait, maybe the option a is $ x < 6 $ and $ x > 8 $ – maybe a typo, and it's supposed to be $ x < -6 $ and $ x > 8 $. So if we assume that, then option a is the closest. But wait, the original option c is $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $, which is incorrect. Alternatively, maybe the function is $ y = x^2 + 2x - 48 $, then factoring: $ (x + 8)(x - 6) $, roots at $ x = -8 $ and $ x = 6 $, so positive when $ x < -8 $ or $ x > 6 $, which is option c. Ah! That must be the case. So the function is $ y = x^2 + 2x - 48 $ (maybe a typo in the problem, written as $ y = x^2 - 2x - 48 $ instead of $ y = x^2 + 2x - 48 $). So factoring $ x^2 + 2x - 48 = (x + 8)(x - 6) $, roots at $ x = -8 $ and $ x = 6 $. Since the parabola opens upwards, it's positive when $ x < -8 $ or $ x > 6 $, which is option c: $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $. # Answer: c. $ x > 6 $ and $ x < -8 $
