The vertex form of a quadratic function is:
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k
The coordinate (h, k) represents a parabola's vertex.
In order to convert a quadratic function in standard form to the vertex form, we can complete the square.
y = 2x² - 5x + 13
Move the constant, 13, to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides of the equation.
y - 13 = 2x² - 5x
Factor out 2 on the right side of the equation.
y - 13 = 2(x² - 2.5x)
Add (b/2)² to both sides of the equation, but remember that since we factored 2 out on the right side of the equation we have to multiply (b/2)² by 2 again on the left side.
y - 13 + 2(2.5/2)² = 2(x² - 2.5x + (2.5/2)²)
y - 13 + 3.125 = 2(x² - 2.5x + 1.5625)
Add the constants on the left and factor the expression on the right to a perfect square.
y - 9.875 = 2(x - 1.25)²
Now, we need y to be by itself again so add 9.875 back to both sides of the equation to move it back to the right side.
y = 2(x - 1.25)² + 9.875
Vertex: (1.25, 9.875)
Solution: y = 2(x - 1.25)² + 9.875
Or if you prefer fractions
y = 2(x - 5/4)² + 79/8
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given:

And we want to find:

This is equivalent to:

So, we will evaluate g(-5) first, which yields:

So:

Then:

Therefore:

Answer:
the perimeter of the Pentagon is 2.75cm
Step-by-step explanation:
add each side together in decimal form
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2/5 x - 9/5
when x = -1,
the value of y = 2/5(-1) - 9/5
= -2/5 - 9/5 = -11/5
when x = 0
=> y = 2/5(0) -9/5
= 0-9/5 = -9/5
when x=1
=> y = 2/5(1) - 9/5
= 2/5 - 9/5 = 7/5
