Find the axis of symmetry y= -2x^2 -8x -15

The squared variable is the "x", therefore is a vertical parabola so its axis of symmetry will come from the vertex's x-coordinate.

now, let's find the vertex of it.

\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}
\\\\
y=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-2}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-8}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-15}
\qquad \qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~  c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
\\\\\\
\left( -\cfrac{-8}{2(-2)}~~,~~\qquad \quad \right)\implies \left( -2~~,~~\qquad  \right)
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{axis of symmetry}}{x=-2}

The diagram shows a triangle.
Basile [38]

Answer:

s=13

Step-by-step explanation:

As\ we\ know\ that,\\"The \ sum\ of\ all\ angles\ of\ a\ triangle\ is\ 180"\\Hence,\\(4s+9)+(3s+1)+(6s+1)=180\\4s+3s+6s+9+1+1=180\\13s+11=180\\13s=180-11\\13s=169\\s=13

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
Alona [7]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder = πr²h

= 33 cubic inches

The volume of a cone = ¹/3 πr²h

If the cylinder and come share the same radius and height then ‘πr²h’ part of the formulas is the same for both;

It means the difference in proportionality is ¹/3 (because even π is the same across board). The volume of the cone is therefore;

¹/3 (33)

= 11

= 11 cubic inches

Hope this helps!
