Answer:

(5, - 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (x - 8)(x - 2) ← in factored form

Find the zeros by equating f(x) to zero, that is

(x - 8)(x - 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 8 = 0 ⇒ x = 8

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is located at the midpoint of the zeros, hence

x_{vertex} = \frac{8+2}{2} = 5

Substitute x = 5 into f(x) for corresponding y- coordinate

f(5) = (5 - 8)(5 - 2) = (- 3)(3) = - 9

vertex = (5, - 9)

Answer: (5,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the multiplication indicated:

f(x) = x^2-2x-8x+16

Add the like terms:

f(x) = x^2-10x+16

Now find the x-coordinate of the vertex with this formula:

x=\frac{-b}{2a}

In this case:

b=-10\\a=1

Then:

x=\frac{-(-10)}{2(1)}=5

Rewrite the expression with f(x)=y

y = x^2-10x+16

Now substitute x=5 into the function to find the y-coordinate of the vertex:

y = (5)^2-10(5)+16

y =-9

Therefore, the vertex is:

(5,-9)

a vegetarian sandwich is in the aproximate shape of a cone. the height of the sandwich is 6 inches and the base diameter is 3.5
Olenka [21]

Answer: 19.2inches³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is calculated as:

= 1/3πr²h

where,

π = 3.14

r = radius = diameter/2 = 3.5/2 = 1.75

h = height = 6

Volume = 1/3πr²h

= 1/3 × 3.14 × 1.75² × 6

= 19.2325

= 19.2inches³

Therefore, the volume of the cone-shaped sandwich is 19.2inches³.

The perimeter of the isosceles ?ABC with the base BC is equal to 40 cm. Perimeter of the equilateral ?BCD is 45 cm. Find AB and
Juliette [100K]

Answer: AB = 12.5, BC = 15

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Perimeter of ΔBCD = BC + CD + BD. Since it is an isoceles triangle, then BC = CD = BD. So, Perimeter of ΔBCD = 3BC

3BC = 45

<u>÷3   </u>    <u>÷3 </u>

 BC = 15

Perimeter of ΔABC = AB + BC + AC.  Since it is an isosceles triangle with BC as the base, then AB = AC. So, Perimeter of ΔABC = 2AB + BC

2AB + BC = 40

2AB + 15 = 40

<u>          -15</u>  <u> -15 </u>

2AB       = 25

<u>÷2         </u>   <u>÷2  </u>

      AB  = 12.5

Could you pls teach me this question ​
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

if it's area the area would be the length of the diameter of the semi circle which is the height of the triangle multiplied by the base of the triangle to find the area of the triangle then to find the area of the circle would be pie multiplied by the diameter divided by two squared

\pi \   \times 7 {}^{2}

then the total area would be the area of the triangle plus the area of the half circle
