The statements true about the the function f(x) = 2x2 – x – 6 are-
- The vertex of the function is (one-quarter, negative 6 and one-eighth).
- The function has two x-intercepts.
<h3>What is vertex of parabola?</h3>
The vertex of parabola is the point at the intersection of parabola and its line of symmetry.
Now the given function is,
f(x) = 2x^2 – x – 6
Also, it is given that the vertex is located at (0.25, -6) and the parabola opens up, the function has two x-intercepts.
Comparing the given function with standard form,
f(x) = a x^2 bx + c
By comprison we get,
a = 2
b = -1
c = -6
Now, x-coordinate of vertex is given as,
x = -b/2a
put the values we get,
x = -(-1)/2*2
or, x = 1/4
Put the value of x in given function, so y-coordinate of the vertex is given as,
f(1/4) = 2(1/4)² - 1/4 - 6
= -49/6
= -6 1/8
Hence, The statements true about the the function f(x) = 2x2 – x – 6 are-
- The vertex of the function is (one-quarter, negative 6 and one-eighth).
- The function has two x-intercepts.

When stone hits the ground, it's height will be zero, and since we're finding the time that's required for the stone to hit the ground, we can set h = 0 and solve for t.
d1 = 51(t)
d2 = 71(8 - t)
d1 + d2 = 508
and now you just have to solve for t.
I believe that's correct.
If something is to the power of 1/2, it is the same as the square root of that number. So, what's the square root of 49?
