Answer:
y = -3/8(x + 2)^2 + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
vertex form is
y = a(x - b)^2 + c where a is a constant and (b,c) is the vertex.
The maximum is at (-2, 8) because x 8 = height and x =-2 is equn. of symmetry
So here we have
y = a(x - (-2))^2 + 8
y = a(x + 2)^2 + 8
Now at the point (-6, 2):
2 = a(-6+2)^2 + 8
2 = 16a + 8
16a = -6
1 = -3/8.
So our equation is y = 3/8(x + 2)^2 + 8
Find the vertex form Y=3(x+3^2-34
Answer:
x = 2.5 inches. Or
x = 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Length: 7 + 2x
Width: 5 + 2x
Note that you have to add x at each end of the picture and onto each part of the width.
The entire area is 120 square inches.
Formula
L*W = Area
(2x + 7)(2x + 5) = 120
Solution
4x^2 + 10x + 14x + 35 = 120 Subtract 120 from both sides. Add xs
4x^2 + 24x + 35 - 120 = 0
4x^2 + 24x - 85 = 0 Factor
(2x + 17)(2x - 5)
2x + 17 has no meaning. It will give - 8.5 which is not possible.
2x - 5 =0
2x = 5 Divide by 2
x = 5/2
x = 2.5
Note: I don't know which one the computer is looking for.
