As it has a maximum value the coefficient of x^2 will be negative

The vertex will be at (-8,2)  so in vertex form it is

y = a(x + 8)^2 + 2
and as it passes through (-7,-1) we have:

-1  = a(-7+8)^2 + 2

-1 = a + 2  so a = -3

answer is  y = -3(x + 8)^2 + 2

in standard form this is y = -3x^2 -48x  - 190

Point D is on line segment \overline{CE}
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

DE = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Point D is on line segment CE.

DE = x+10, CD=6 and CE=3x

We need to find the length of DE.

ATQ,

CE = CD + DE

Putting all the values,

3x = 6 + x+10

Taking like terms together

3x-x = 16

2x = 16

x = 8

DE = x+10

= 8+10

= 18

Hence, the length of DE is 18.

Abcd is a rectangle if DB=26 and DC=24 find bc
Anettt [7]
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Let's first establish that triangle BCD is a right-angle triangle.

Therefore, we can use Pythagoras theorem to find BC and solve this problem. Pythagoras theorem is displayed below:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Where c = hypotenus of right-angle triangle

Where a and c = other two sides of triangle

Now we can solve the problem by substituting the values from the problem into the Pythagoras theorem as displayed below:

Let a = BC

b = DC = 24

c = DB = 26

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 24^2 = 26^2

a^2 = 26^2 - 24^2

a = square root of ( 26^2 - 24^2 )

a = square root of ( 676 - 576 )

a = square root of ( 100 )

a = 10

Therefore, as a = BC, BC = 10.

If we want to check our answer, we can substitute the value of ( a ) from our answer in conjunction with the values given in the problem into the Pythagoras theorem. If the left-hand side is equivalent to the right-hand side, then the answer must be correct as displayed below:

a = BC = 10

b = DC = 24

c = DB = 26

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2

100 + 576 = 676

676 = 676

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, BC is equivalent to 10.
