Find the vertex of the following quadratic function f(x)=x^2+2x+1
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The answer is that the vertex is: (1, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the "Completing the Square Method":

(x - h)^2 - k = 0, the vertex is (h, -k)

Complete the square:

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0

x^2 + 2x = -1

(2/2)^2 = 1, add 1 to both sides of the equation.

x^2 + 2x + 1 = -1 + 1

(x + 1)^2 = 0

(x + 1)^2 - 0 = 0 (Just to put a placeholder in for he -k)

The vertex is (1, 0)

Effectus [21]

Answer:\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Student council has 6 girls and 3 boys

If two person chosen at random

Probability that first officer is girl and second is a boy

=\text{Probability of choosing a girl officer}\times \text{Probability of choosing a boy officer}

=\frac{^6C_1}{^9C_1}\times \frac{^3C_1}{^8C_1}

=\frac{6}{9}\times \frac{3}{8}

=\frac{1}{4}

An angle measures 72° less than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

81 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so if 2 angles are complementary, it means that when they are added together, they equal 90 degrees. So using this, we can make an equation. Let's call one angle x and the other that is 72 less than angle x can be described as x - 72. Now let's make that into an equation.

90 = x + x -72

So in order to solve this, we need to get x by itself. So we need to add 72 on both sides, and the equation should now look like this:

162 = x + x

Now we have to add the x's together.

162 = 2x

Now in order to isolate x, you divide by 2 on both sides.

X = 81

So we now know the larger angle is 81, and the smaller angle which is 72 less, would be 9.
