Since you need the vertex, and knowing the vertex will tell you the axis of symmetry, it is convenient to put the equation in vertex form.
.. -x^2 -4x +1
.. = -(x^2 +4x) +1
.. = -(x^2 +4x +(4/2)^2) +1 -(-(4/2)^2) . . . . complete the square
.. = -(x +2)^2 +5
The vertex is (-2, 5).
The axis of symmetry is x = -2.
Answer:
b) It has a value less than 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides of the inequality by 12 to get
t < 2 so the answer is b)
Answer:55.44

Step-by-step explanation: I have do my work
Answer:
y = -5x +7
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept form of the equation is
y= mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -5x +7
