Answer:
See explanation below to use the vertex form to solve a quadratic equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - h)^2 - k = 0, the vertex is (h, -k)
An example below, taking a quadratic equation and completing the square:
x^2 - 2x - 1 = 0
x^2 - 2x = 1
(-2/-2)^2 = 1, add 1 to both sides of the equation.
x^2 - 2x + 1 = 1 + 1
(x - 1)^2 = 2
(x - 1)^2 - 2 = 0
The vertex is (1, -2)
9/10 of the recommended amount.
s= 18
and,
t= 48
These values makes it correct.
