Answer:

C. -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

well the formula for slope is m=(y2-y1/x2-x1). y2 = -5 y1= 3 x2 = 2 x1 = -14. put that all together to get -5-3/2-(-14). well -5 - 3 = -8. the second one is like a multiplication problem so a negative minus a negative is a positive. which give u 2 + 14 = 16. so you get the fraction -8/16 both are divisible by 8 so divide the equation by 8 and you get -1/2.

Use the method of completing the square to write the equation of the given parabola in this form:
siniylev [52]
Formula is y = a(x-h)^2 + k

Where h is 1 and k is 1

f (x) = a(x-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(0-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(1) + 1

-3 - 1 = a

-4 = a

a = -4

A must be equal to -4

y = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

0 = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

4(x^2 - 2x + 1) - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 4 - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 3 = 0

4x^2 - 8x = -3

Divide fpr 4 each term of the equation....x^2 - 2x = -3/4

We must factor the perfect square ax^2 + bx + c which we don't have. We must follow the rule (b/2)^2 where b is -2....(-2/2)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1 and we add up that to both sides

x^2 - 2x + 1 = -3/4 + 1

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 1/4

(x-1)^2 = 1/4

square root both sides x-1 = (+/-) 1/2

x1 = +1/2 + 1 = 3/2

x2 = -1/2 + 1 = 1/2

x-intercepts are 1/2 and 3/2, in form (3/2,0); (1/2,0)

What basic trigonometric identity would you use to verify that (sin2x + cos2x)/cosx=secx
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x) cos(2x) = cos2(x) – sin2(x) = 1 – 2 sin2(x) = 2 cos2(x) – 1. Now I am not sure if this is right but I remember another similar formula. Here is the correct formula cot x = cos x / sin x

2 ) ( sin² x + cos² x ) / cos x = sec x

1/cos x = sec x

sec x = sec x

cos² x + sin² x = 1

How do you verify this trigonometric identity? cos^2 θcot^2 θ = cot^2 θ - cos^2 θ
sattari [20]
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Replace cos^2(θ) with 1-sin^2(θ), and cot(θ) with cos(θ)/sin(θ).

  cos^2(θ)cot^2(θ) = cot^2(θ) - cos^2(θ)

  (1 -sin^2(θ))cot^2(θ) =  . . . . . replace cos^2 with 1-sin^2

  cot^2(θ) -sin^2(θ)·cos^2(θ)/sin^2(θ) = . . . . . replace cot with cos/sin

  cot^2(θ) -cos^2(θ) = cot^2(θ) -cos^2(θ) . . . as desired
