Q1:
Show all work to factor x^4 − 5x^2 + 4 completely.
Q2:
Show all work to solve 3x^2 − 5x − 2 = 0.
Q3:
Two functions are given below: f(x) and h(x). State the axis of symmetry for each function and explain how to find it.

f(x) h(x)
f(x) = −4(x − 8)^2 + 3 graph of negative 1 times the quantity of x minus 3 squared, plus 2
Q4:
The functions f(x) = (x + 1)^2 − 2 and g(x) = −(x − 2)^2 + 1 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. Apply your knowledge of functions in vertex form to determine if the vertex for each function is a minimum or a maximum and explain your reasoning.

Carl's candies has determined that a candy bar measuring 3 inches long has a z-score of +1 and a candy bar measuring 3.75 inches long has a z-score of +2. what is the standard deviation of the length of candy bars produced at carl's candies?

In δabc shown below, ∠bac is congruent to ∠bca: triangle abc, where angles a and c are congruent given: base ∠bac and ∠acb are congruent. prove: δabc is an isosceles triangle. when completed (fill in the blanks), the following paragraph proves that line segment ab is congruent to line segment bc making δabc an isosceles triangle. (4 points) construct a perpendicular bisector from point b to line segment ac . label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and line segment ac as point d: m∠bda and m∠bdc is 90° by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. ∠bda is congruent to ∠bdc by the definition of congruent angles. line segment ad is congruent to line segment dc by by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. δbad is congruent to δbcd by the line segment ab is congruent to line segment bc because consequently, δabc is isosceles by definition of an isosceles triangle. 1. corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (cpctc) 2. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 1. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 2. the definition of congruent angles 1. the definition of congruent angles 2. the definition of a perpendicular bisector 1. angle-side-angle (asa) postulate 2. corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (cpctc)
