The x-value of the vertex of the given parabola is x = 5, so the correct option is b.

<h3>How to get the x-value of the vertex?</h3>

If we define the parabola by f(x), by looking at the table, we can read:

  • f(2) = 8
  • f(6) = 2
  • f(8) = 8

So, notice that:

f(2) = f(8).

Then the x-coordinate of the vertex is the midpoint between 2 and 8.

x = (2 + 8)/2 = 5

The x-value of the vertex of the given parabola is x = 5, so the correct option is b.

Write an equation for the line parallel to y= -2x+1 that contains (-2,5)
grin007 [14]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallels line have the same slope, when an equation is in the form y= mx + b, m is the slope. In this problem slope = - 2

Now with the slope what is missing is the y-intercept, the problem says that the line contains the point (-2, 5), replacing that point in the equation you can solve it to find the y-intercept

y = mx + b

5 = (-2)(-2) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 + b

y = - 2x +1

How do I solve this step by step

They are both drawn as right angled triangles so if we can constract them then they should obey pythagoras theorem 

First traingle:- 8^2 = 64   
                       7^2 + 6^2  =  49 + 36  =  85   so this does not obey the theorem and you cant draw it.

Second traingle: 9^2 = 81  and  5^2 + 7^2  =  25 + 49  =  75 so we cant draw that one either.
