Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2+4x+5

We need to find the vertex of the above equation.

The above equation represents the parabola.

The slope of parabola can be found by taking derivative of the given equation

dy/dx = 2x+4

The slope of the parabola at the vertex is zero SO,

2x+4 = 0

2x = -4

x = -4/2

x = -2

Putting value of x =-2 to find the value of y

y = x^2+4x+5

y =(-2)^2+4(-2)+5

y = 4-8+5

y =9-8

y = 1

So, the vertex is (-2,1)

Option C is correct.

(-2, 11) & (5,6) What is the slope of the equation between these two points?

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

$m =\dfrac{-5}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

Two points (-2,11) and (5,6) .

And we need to find out the slope of the equation between the two points. The slope of the line passing through two points , is given by ,

$\implies Slope (m) =\dfrac{ y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Here the two points are (-2,11) and (5,6) .So put on the respective values ,

$\implies Slope (m) =\dfrac{ 11 - 6}{-2-5}\\\\\implies Slope = \dfrac{5}{-7} \\\\\implies Slope = \dfrac{-5}{7}$

Hence the slope of the line is -5/7 .

She took 100, the store has - 100
she went back and bough
70 bucks in stuff, the store has - 70

yes, she took the $100 bill and gave it, got back $30, that means she only kept $30 from the original bill.

the store however, lost the original $100 bill plus the $70 in merchandise, so they have -$170.
