Given:  <span>y = x^2 + 6x - 5.  Then a = 1, b = 6 and c = -5.

The x-coord. of the vertex is given by x = -b / (2a), which here is x = -6 / (2*1) = -3.

Use the given formula </span><span>y = x^2 + 6x - 5 to find the value of y when x = -3:

y = (-3)^2 + 6(-3) - 5 = 9 - 18 - 5 = -14

Then the vertex is (-3, -14).</span>

What is the quadratic formula in vertex form?
telo118 [61]

Answer:

See explanation below to use the vertex form to solve a quadratic equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - h)^2 - k = 0, the vertex is (h, -k)

An example below, taking a quadratic equation and completing the square:

x^2 - 2x - 1 = 0

x^2 - 2x = 1

(-2/-2)^2 = 1, add 1 to both sides of the equation.

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 1 + 1

(x - 1)^2 = 2

(x - 1)^2 - 2 = 0

The vertex is (1, -2)

Simplify the radical completely.
Sonja [21]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

But basically, one by one you try moving the terms out of the radical.

75 is also 25 * 3 and since 25 has a perfect square root of 5 that goes out and 3 stays inside the radical.

x^3 is also x^2 * x and since x^2 has a perfect square root which is just x that goes outside while the remaining x stays inside.

y^9 is also y^8 * y and since we move variables out the radical in twos y^ goes outside the radical and y stays inside alone.

Finally, z is just z it can't be taken out so it stays inside the radical.

Hope that helps!

saul85 [17]

Answer:

B - the graph of the function does not form a straight line

Step-by-step explanation:

linear functions have to form a straight line, and that function in the question is a quadratic because x is to the power of 2.
