Answer and Step-by-step explanation: <u>Standard</u> <u>form</u> of a quadratic equation is expressed as: y=ax²+bx+c, while <u>vertex</u> <u>form</u> is written as:
y=a(x-h)²+k.
The similarities between standard and vertex forms is that they show if the graph of the equation has a <u>minimum</u> (when a>0) or <u>maximum</u> (a<0) and it's easier to determine the y-intercept: for standard, the value of c is the intercept; for vertex, the value k is the intercept.
The advantage of standard form is that you can determine the product and sum of the equation's roots, which is a method to determine them.
The advantages of vertex form are: easier to find the vertex of the graph, which is the pair (h,k) and the axis of symmetry, which is the value of h.
The formula of a slope:

We have the points (look at the picture) (0, 1) and (-2, -2). Substitute:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6
To compare 5/8 and 1/2, you will need to create fractions that have the same denominator. 1/2 is the same as 4/8.
5/8 is greater than 4/8, so she had knitted more than 1/2.
