Answer:
f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k
Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.
The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):
x - h = 0
-2 - h = 0
-h = 2
h = -2
So the function ends up looking like:
f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2
Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:
f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
P(5 on one throw) = 1/8
expected number of 5's in 400 throws = 1/8 * 400 = 50
Answer:
-6, 1.8 , 2, 5, 131
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = -2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is given by the point that is on the y-axis. (1)
This means that the answer contains a +1
Then you must find if the slope is positive or negative
In this case the slope is negative because the line goes "downhill" from left to right
Since the slope is negative it means that there will be a negative sign in the beginning of the equation
Next, to find the slope you need to find the rise over run
Since it is a negative slope the rise will be negative and the run will be positive.
To find the slope find two clear points on the graph such as (0,1) and (2,0)
To find the slope, use the slope formula
This would look like: (0-2)/(1-0)
Your slope will be -2x
Piece it all together and you get a final answer of y= -2x+1
Answer:
4.00
Step-by-step explanation:
each one of the eights is 80 cents. the way to figure it out was to just divide it by 3 or in a different place however many fractions you have/need.
