If two graphs y = px2+ q and y = 2x2 -1 intersect at x = 2, find the value of p in terms q.

A.

(q-8)/7

B.

(7-q)/4

C.

(8-q)/2

D.

(7-q)/8

Correct Answer: (7-q)/4

Explanation

Y = px 2 + q/5 = 2x2 - 1 Right arrow px2 + q = 2x2 - 1\px2 = 2x2 - 1 – q\p = (2x2 - q – 1) / x2 \ Atx = 2\p = [(2(22) – 1 – q)]/ 22 \ p = [(8 – 1- q)]/ 4 \ = ( 7 – q ) / 4

Y = px 2 + q/5 = 2x2 - 1 Right arrow px2 + q = 2x2 - 1\px2 = 2x2 - 1 – q\p = (2x2 - q – 1) / x2 \ Atx = 2\p = [(2(22) – 1 – q)]/ 22 \ p = [(8 – 1- q)]/ 4 \ = ( 7 – q ) / 4
