I don’t see a picture is there one anyway
It is always negative. For example, -1 times 2 is -2
For x intercepts, plug in 0 for y.
0 = (x^2) - 2x - 35
*factoring* = (x-7)(x+5)
x intercepts = 7,-5
As for the vertex, you can use the equation -b/2a for the x-coordinate of the vertex
so,
x = -b/2a = -(-2)/2 = 1
then just find the y value by plugging it back in to the equation.
y = ((1)^2) - 2(1) - 35
= -36
so, vertex is at (1,-36)
If you would like to simplify (3 * x + 5) + (2 * x - 9) - (4 * x + 3), you can do this using the following steps:
(3 * x + 5) + (2 * x - 9) - (4 * x + 3) = 3 * x + 2 * x - 4 * x + 5 - 9 - 3 = 1 * x - 7 = x - 7
The correct result would be x - 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
You should always use the least number of significant figures. The exception is exact numbers or constants.
For example, there are 60 minutes in an hour. Even though this number has one significant figure, it is an exact number. So 15 minutes converted to hours would be 0.25 hr.
