Answer:
D. Minimum at (3, 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can add and subtract the square of half the x-coefficient:
y = x^2 -6x +(-6/2)^2 +16 -(-6/2)^2
y = (x -3)^2 +7 . . . . . simplify to vertex form
Comparing this to the vertex for for vertex (h, k) ...
y = (x -h)^2 +k
We find the vertex to be ...
(3, 7) . . . . vertex
The coefficient of x^2 is positive (+1), so the parabola opens upward and the vertex is a minimum.
Answer:
141, meaning that there will be two real solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant of a quadratic is , which in this case is:
Since the discriminant is positive and not zero, there will be two real solutions to this equation. This is because when the discriminant is negative, and you take the square root of it, you get a negative number. If you take the square root of 0, you get 0, which means that there will only be one solution to the equation.
Hope this helps!
