What is the vertex of the graph of the following equation? y = x^2 + 2x-3
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

vertex = (- 1, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = - \frac{b}{2a}

y = x² + 2x - 3 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 2 , then

x = - \frac{2}{2} = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into the equation for corresponding value of y

y = (- 1)² + 2(- 1) - 3 = 1 - 2 - 3 = - 4

vertex = (- 1, - 4 )

The sum of two numbers is 75. The second number is 3 less than twice the first
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

\large{\textbf{The two numbers are: 26 and 49}.\\}

Step-by-step explanation:

\large{\textup{assume the two numbers are $x$ and $y$.}}\\\large{\textup{The given sentences are written in mathematical terms as follows:}\\$$ x + y =  75  \hspace{25mm} (1)$$ $$ y = 2x - 3 \hspace{25mm} (2) $$  \\\textup{Substituting $(2)$ in $(1)$,}\\\begin{align*} &  \implies x + 2x - 3 = 75  \\& \implies 3x = 78 \\& \implies x = 26\end{align*}\textup{Substituting $x$ in $(1), \hspace{5mm} y = 49$} }

What’s the equation for a line passing through points (-1, 4.5) and (6, 8)?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

<em>Given </em><em>points </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>first </em><em>we </em><em>should </em><em>calculate </em><em>slope </em>

<em>Slope </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>) </em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>y2 </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1</em><em>) </em><em> </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x2</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x1</em><em>) </em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>/</em><em>7</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>Now </em><em>the </em><em>equation </em><em>of </em><em>line </em><em>is </em><em>given </em><em>by </em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1 </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

<em>(</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>y </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>y </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>5</em>
