Answer:
More than 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 in decimal form is 0.5, and since 0.7 is greater than 0.5, that means it is greater than 1/2.
So to solve problems like these you can work out each equation by substituting the x and y with the coords from the vertex (2,-4) and which ever one is true is the corresponding equation.
Lets try the first one
A) y = 2( x-2)^2-4 this would become
-4 = 2(2-2)^2-4 we solve this and get
-4 = 2(0)-4
-4 = -4
so it seems like A is the correct answer, of course we'd wanna check out the other answers just to be sure.
Lets try one and do C
C) -2 = 2(-4-2)^2+2
-2 = 2(-8)^2+2
-2 = 130
These aren't equal so this can't be our equation
So you can also do one more just to be super sure you have the right answer but I think A is the correct one :)
Answer:
The vertex is ( -4,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for a parabola can be written as
y = a( x-h)^2 +k where ( h,k) is the vertex
y = 2
(x + 4)² + 1
Rewriting
y = 2
(x - -4)² + 1
The vertex is ( -4,1)
