To solve the question, we need to follow a methodical approach, step by step:
### Step 1: Depreciation Calculation
We'll first determine the value of the machine at the end of the third year.
#### Calculation of Machine Depreciation:
- Original value of the machine: [tex]\( P \)[/tex]
- Depreciation rate in the first year: [tex]\( 15\% \)[/tex]
- Depreciation rate in the second and subsequent years: [tex]\( 20\% \)[/tex]
After the first year:
[tex]\[ \text{Value after 1st year} = P \times (1 - 0.15) = P \times 0.85 \][/tex]
After the second year:
[tex]\[ \text{Value after 2nd year} = P \times 0.85 \times (1 - 0.20) = P \times 0.85 \times 0.80 \][/tex]
After the third year:
[tex]\[ \text{Value after 3rd year} = P \times 0.85 \times 0.80 \times (1 - 0.20) = P \times 0.85 \times 0.80 \times 0.80 \][/tex]
So, at the end of the third year, the value of the machine will be:
[tex]\[ \text{Value} = P \times 0.85 \times 0.80 \times 0.80 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ = P \times 0.85 \times 0.64 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ = P \times 0.544 \][/tex]
The machine will be worth [tex]\( 54.4\% \)[/tex] of its original value.
### Step 2: Complete the Table for [tex]\( y = 2x - x^2 \)[/tex]
Now, we will compute the [tex]\( y \)[/tex] values for given [tex]\( x \)[/tex] values:
[tex]\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
x & -2 & -1.5 & -1 & -0.5 & 0 & 0.5 & 1 & 1.5 & 2 & 2.5 & 3 & 3.5 & 4 \\
\hline
y & -8 & -5.25 & -3 & -1.25 & 0 & 0.75 & 1 & 0.75 & 0 & -1.25 & -3 & -5.25 & -8 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\][/tex]
### Step 3: Draw the Graph
You need to plot the graph of [tex]\( y = 2x - x^2 \)[/tex] using the given table values. Use a scale of 2 cm for 1 unit on both axes from [tex]\( x = -2 \)[/tex] to [tex]\( x = 4 \)[/tex].
### Step 4: Analyzing the Graph
From the graph, we can answer the specific questions:
(i) Maximum point:
From the completed table of values, we can see the maximum [tex]\( y \)[/tex] value is [tex]\( 1 \)[/tex] when [tex]\( x = 1 \)[/tex]. So, the maximum point is [tex]\( (1, 1) \)[/tex].
(ii) Line of symmetry:
For a quadratic function like [tex]\( y = 2x - x^2 \)[/tex], the line of symmetry is given by the formula:
[tex]\[ x = -\frac{b}{2a} \][/tex]
In our equation, [tex]\( y = -x^2 + 2x \)[/tex], [tex]\( a = -1 \)[/tex] and [tex]\( b = 2 \)[/tex].
So, the line of symmetry is:
[tex]\[ x = -\frac{2}{2 \cdot (-1)} = 1 \][/tex]
(iii) Range of values of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] for which [tex]\( y \geq 0 \)[/tex]:
From the table, the values of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] for which [tex]\( y \geq 0 \)[/tex] are [tex]\( 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 \)[/tex].
So, summarizing:
1. Maximum point: [tex]\( (1, 1) \)[/tex]
2. Line of symmetry: [tex]\( x = 1 \)[/tex]
3. Range of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] values for which [tex]\( y \geq 0 \)[/tex]: [tex]\( [0, 2] \)[/tex]
I hope this detailed solution helps you understand the process and check your work!
