What is the vertex of the quadratic function f(x)=(x-8)(x-2)?

Mathematics

Change the function into vertex form:
f(x)=x²-10x+16
make a square by (adding half of -10)², which is 25, then subtract it:
f(x)=x²-10x+25-25+16
f(x)=(x-5)²-9
so the vertex is at (5,-9)

another way to do it: 
f(x)=x²-10x+16
the vertex is when x=-\frac{b}{2a}, b=-10, a=1 in this case.
x=-(-10/2*1)=5
plug x=5 into the quadratic function, you get f(x)=-9

George bought 7.5 cases of pancake mix for his diner. A case contains 12 1.3-pound boxes. How many pounds of pancake mix did Geo
Ilya [14]
In order to get the answer to this problem, first we have to find out how many pounds does one case of pancake mix have. We know that one box has 1.3 pounds of pancake mix. We also know that one case has 12 boxes. So first, we multiply 1.3 to 12.  The answer we will get is 15.6. One case of pancake mix has a total of 15.6 pounds of pancake mix. Now we also know there are 7.5 cases that George bought. So in order to get the total pounds George bought, we multiply 15.6 to 7.5. So all in all, George bought 117 pounds of Pancake Mix.

A rectangle with an area of 8 ft² is dilated by a factor of 4. What is the area of the dilated rectangle?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Option 4) 128\ ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z------> the scale factor

x-----> the area of the dilated rectangle

y----> the area of the original rectangle

so

z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=4

y=8\ ft^{2}

substitute and solve for x

4^{2}=\frac{x}{8}

x=16(8)=128\ ft^{2}
