Solve by completing the square: x^2+15=8x

1 answer:

3 0

x^2+15=8x
x^2-8x=-15
x^2 - 2 (x)(4) =-15
adding 16 on both sides
x^2 - 2 (x)(4) +16=-15+16
x^2 - 2 (x)(4) + 4^2= 1

(x-4)^2=1

taking square root on bothsides x-4 = +-1
so x-4=1 or x-4=-1
x-5 or x=3

We can use the vertex form of a quadratic, $y = a(x-h)^{2} + k$ , to find that $g(x) = a x^{2} - 7$ . Plugging $(x,y)$ ordered pairs into g(x), we see that a = 1. For example, for $(3, 2)$ , $2 = a * 3^{2} - 7$ . Solving for a gives 1.

Answer:

(4, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, A (-4, 3) is reflected across the y-axis to obtain point B.

Therefore, y coordinate remains the same, x coordinate flips over the y axis to be positive.

(-4,3) ==>> (4,3)
