17 = p - 3 - 3p
17 = -2p - 3
17 + 3 = -2p
20 = -2p
-20/2 = p
-10 = p <==

Graph y = x2 + 2. Identify the vertex of the graph. Tell whether it is a minimum or maximum

Leona [35]

Vertex is -b/2a. The variable b=2 and a=2. That finds the x coordinate of the vertex. Then to find the y coordinate you just plug the number you got for x (-1/2) into the equation. Like so:
y = 2x+2
y = 2(-1/2)+2
y = -1+2
y = 1
So your vertex is ( -1/2, 1 )
To graph your vertex you take your x coordinate (-1/2) and find it on the x axis of the graph (horizontal line). Then do the same for y (1) (on the vertical axis.
Now that you have your vertex graphed you can find out if it is minimum or maximum by looking at the direction in which the slope is going. If it goes in the positive direction (up) then it is a minimum since that is the lowest point that the line touches. If it is maximum it is opposite. The line faces down and the highest point the line touches is that point.

The function shown below was created to track the different intervals of speed that an automobile travels over a period of 28 se

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1. The car is slowing down at a rate of 2.5mph/s

2. The greatest acceleration is 10 mph/s.

3. In the interval 4s to 16s the speed remains constant and has magnitude 25 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The deceleration of the car is from 16 seconds to 24 seconds is the slope $m$ of the graph from 16 to 24:
