Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for a straight line is
y = mx + b
where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
The line passes through the points (-12, 0) and (0, 6)
(a) Calculate the slope of the line
(b) Write the equation
The y-intercept is at x = -6.
The diagram shows the graph of the line passing through the two intercepts.
max is at vertex
in form
the x value of the vertex is
given,
a=6, b=0
the x value of the vertex is -0/(2*6)=0
the y value is
so vertex is at (0,-1)
since the value of a is positive, the parabola opens up and the vertex is a minimum value of the function
therefore that value is the smallest value the function can be
domain=numbesr you can use for x
range=numbesr you get out of inputting the domain
domain=all real numbers
range is {y | y≥-1} since y=-1 is the minimum
