The height of a hill, h(x), in a painting can be written as a function of x, the distance from the left side of the painting. Both h(x) and x are measured in inches.

h(x) = (x)(x – 13)

What is the height of the hill in the painting 3 inches from the left side of the picture?


inches

Answer :

carlosego

For this case we have the following function:

[tex] h (x) = (x) (x - 13)
[/tex]

To answer the question, we must calculate the value of h (x) when x equals 3.

We then have to substitute values:

[tex] h (3) = (3) (3 - 13)
[/tex]

Rewriting the equation we have:

[tex] h (3) = (3) (- 10)

h (3) = -30
[/tex]

Answer:

The height of the hill in the painting 3 inches from the left side of the picture is:

[tex] h (3) = -30
[/tex]

Note: The value of the function is negative. It is recommended to review the function again. The result must be positive.
