Answer:
p = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex of the function is (0.5, 30.25 )
Since the roots are (6, 0) and (p, 0) then the axis of symmetry is vertical
with equation x = 0.5
The axis of symmetry passes through the midpoint of the roots, thus
= 0.5 ( multiply both sides by 2 )
6 + p = 1 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
p = - 5
Answer:
(-9.5, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio a:b (a to b) of two segments formed by a point of partition, and the endpoints of the original segment, we can calculate the point of partition using this formula:
.
Given two endpoints of the original segment
→ (-10, -8) [(x₁, y₁)] and (-8, 8) [(x₂, y₂)]
Along with the ratio of the two partitioned segments
→ 1 to 3 = 1:3 [a:b]
Formed by the point that partitions the original segment to create the two partitioned ones
→ (x?, y?)
We can apply this formula and understand how it was derived to figure out where the point of partition is.
Here is the substitution:
x₁ = -10
y₁ = -8
x₂ = -8
y₂ = 8
a = 1
b = 3
