What is the vertex of the absolute value function defined by ƒ(x) = |x + 5| + 7?
Temka [501]
To answer this, you need to know the general form of an absolute value function. the equation for this is f(x<span>) = </span>a|x<span> - </span>h<span>| + </span>k, and in this equation, the vertex is (h, k).

with that information, you can see that your vertex will be (-5, 7). you must take the negative for 5 because the general equation states that your h value is usually subtracted from x. to check your vertex, try plugging it into your general equation:
f(x) = a|x - (-5)| + 7
f(x) = a|x + 5| + 7 ... you see that this matches your given equation. this last part here was just to show why your 5 must be negative; your answer is bolded.

2x^2+7x=15 write in standard then factor the left side of the equation.
Nataly [62]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + 7x = 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

2x² + 7x - 15 = 0 ← in standard form

To factorise the left side

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 2 × - 15 = - 30 and sum = + 7

The factors are + 10 and - 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² + 10x - 3x - 15 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) ← factor out (x + 5) from each term

(x + 5)(2x - 3) ← in factored form
