What is the minimum point on a graph of f(x) = (x - 1)² - 3?
1 answer:
Answer:
(1, -3)
First option
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum point on the graph is also the <u>vertex</u>.
The quadratic function equation is given in <u>vertex form</u>, which is
Using this equation, the vertex is (-h, k).
Whatever number you see for "h", find its opposite negative/positive. That will be the x-coordinate of the vertex. The y-coordinate for the vertex is the same as "k", keeping the negative and positive.
In f(x) = (x - 1)² - 3 using (-h, k) is:
h = -1 => -h = 1
k = -3
Therefore the vertex is (1, -3).

<h3>Given</h3>
x + 2 ≥ 6
<h3>Find</h3>the graph for the solution
<h3>Solution</h3>We can solve for x by subtacting 2 from both sides of the inequality.
... x + 2 -2 ≥ 6 -2
... x ≥ 4 . . . . . . . . . . simplify
The answer is read, "x is greater than or equal to 4." This means the solution is those real numbers that are to the right of 4 on the number line, and including 4 on the number line. Numbers to the left of 4 are <em>not included</em>. The inclusion of the number 4 is shown by putting a solid dot there (not an open circle).
The appropriate choice is the 3rd one.
