y = -2(x-5)^2 + 7

That's vertex form for a parabola y=a(x-p)^2+q and we read off vertex (p,q) as

Answer: Vertex (5,7)

The negative <em>a</em> tells us this is a downward opening parabola (upside down from the usual y=x^2. I remember CUP - Concave Up Positive; here <em>a </em>is negative so not a cup, instead concave <em>down.</em> The same rule applies to second derivatives in calculus so memorize it now and use it later.

Answer: downward

Keep Change Flip!!!
Keep: the first fraction 5 or 5/1
Change: Division sign to multiplication sign
Flip (reciprocal): the second fraction
So you get 5/1*9/2= 45/2 which simplified to 22 1/2

Solve and check x+6=2x-7
ira [324]

x = 13

subtract x from both sides of the equation

6 = 2x - x - 7

6 = x - 7

add 7 to both sides

6 + 7 = x ⇒ x = 13

As a check

substitute this value into the equation and if both sides are equal then it is the solution

left side = 13 + 6 = 19

right side = (2 × 13) - 7 = 26 - 7 = 19

hence x = 13 is the solution
