As a verb, postulate is usually defined as to ask, demand or claim. In other words: To claim or assume the existence or truth of, especially of a basis for reasoning or arguing.

As a noun, postulate is usually defined as something taken as self-evident or assumed without proof as a basis for reasoning. In other words, a proposition that requires no proof, being self-evident, or that is for a specific purpose assumed true, and this is used in the proof of other propositions, axioms.

find the x-intercepts and the coordinates of the vertex for the parabola Y equals negative X squared plus 8X -12. If there’s mor

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

x = 2, and 6

x = 2 , 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic function to analyze is: $y = -x^2+8x-12$

In order to find where the corresponding parabola intercepts the x axis, we set it equal to zero (y = 0):

$y = -x^2+8x-12\\0 = -x^2+8x-12\\x^2-8x+12=0$

This equation is easy to solve by factoring. We look for a air of integer numbers whose product equals the constant term "12", and whose combinig renders the coefficient of the middle term of the trinomial "-8".

The two such numbers are "-2" and "-6". We use them to split the middle term, and then solve by factoring by grouping:

$x^2-8x+12=0\\x^2-2x-6x+12=0\\(x^2-2x)+(-6x+12)=0\\x(x-2)-6(x-2)=0\\(x-2)(x-6)=0$

For the product of two factors to render zero, we need either one to be a zero.This means that (x-2)=0 (that is x = 2), or (x-6)=0 (that is x = 6).

So, there are two x-intercepts: x= 2, and 6

Which of the following is equivalent to -9-√-36

LenKa [72]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: -9 - 6i

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

$\sqrt{-36} = \sqrt{(-1)(36)} = \sqrt{-1} \sqrt{36} = (6i)$

= - 9 - (6i)

= -9 - 6i
