Y=x^2-6x-16 in vertex form

Mathematics

Answer:

y=(x-3)^{2} -25

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is y=ax^{2} +bx+c

The vertex form of a quadratic equation is y=a(x-h)^{2} +k

The vertex of a quadratic is (h,k) which is the maximum or minimum of a quadratic equation. To find the vertex of a quadratic, you can either graph the function and find the vertex, or you can find it algebraically.

To find the h-value of the vertex, you use the following equation:

h=\frac{-b}{2a}

In this case, our quadratic equation is y=x^{2} -6x-16. Our a-value is 1, our b-value is -6, and our c-value is -16. We will only be using the a and b values. To find the h-value, we will plug in these values into the equation shown below.

h=\frac{-b}{2a} ⇒ h=\frac{-(-6)}{2(1)}=\frac{6}{2} =3

Now, that we found our h-value, we need to find our k-value. To find the k-value, you plug in the h-value we found into the given quadratic equation which in this case is y=x^{2} -6x-16

y=x^{2} -6x-16 ⇒ y=(3)^{2} -6(3)-16 ⇒ y=9-18-16 ⇒ y=-25

This y-value that we just found is our k-value.

Next, we are going to set up our equation in vertex form. As a reminder, vertex form is: y=a(x-h)^{2} +k

a: 1

h: 3

k: -25

y=(x-3)^{2} -25

Hope this helps!

What is the factored form of 5x2 − 18x − 8? (5x + 4)(x + 2) (5x + 2)(x − 4) (5x + 1)(x + 8) (5x + 1)(x − 8)
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Hello! So, this question is in the form of ax² - bx - c. First thingd first, let's multiply a and c together. c = -8 and a = 5. -8 * 5 is -40. Now, let's find two factors that have a product of 40, but a sum of 18. If you list the factors, you see that 2 and 20 have a product of 40, but  2 - 20 is -18. The factors we will use are -2 and 20.

How to factor it:

For this question, you can use something called a box method and factor it by finding a factor of each column and row. Just make 4 boxes and put 5x² on the top left and -40 on the bottom left box. Put 2x on the top right box and -20x on the bottom left box. Now, factor out for each row and column. The factors should be 5x + 2 for the top part and x - 4 for the side. It should look like (5x + 2)(x - 4). Let's check it. Solve it by using the FOIL method and you get 5x² - 20x + 2x - 8. Combine like terms and you get 5x² - 18x - 8. There. The answer is B: (5x + 2)(x - 4)

Note: The box method may be challenging at first, but it can be really helpful on problems like these.
