Answer:

(-2,-16)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a function

f(x) =5x^2+20x-16

To find its vertex

We can use completion of squares method

f(x) =5x^2+20x-16

f(x)=5(x^2+4x)-16\\=5(x^2+4x+4)-20-16\\=5(x+2)^2-16

This is in std vertex form of a parabola

From the equation we find that the vertex is

(-2,-16)

Hence vertex is (-2,-16)

Verify:

Derivative of f(x) =f'(x)=10x+20

Equate to 0 to have x=-2

f(-2) = 20-40-16=-36

Thus verified

Answer:

vertex = (- 2, - 36)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form : y = ax² + bx + c : a ≠ 0

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x_{vertex} = - \frac{b}{2a}

f(x) = 5x² + 20x - 16 is in standard form

with a = 5, b = 20 and c = - 16

x_{vertex} = - \frac{20}{10} = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into f(x) for corresponding y- coordinate

f(- 2) = 5(- 2)² +20(- 2) - 16 = 20 - 40 - 16 = - 36

vertex = (- 2, - 36)

Answer:

k = –10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

f(x) = x³ – 6x² – 11x + k

Factor => x + 2

Value of K =?

Next, we shall obtained the value of x from x + 2. This is illustrated below:

x + 2 = 0

Collect like terms

x = 0 – 2

x = –2

Finally, we shall determine the value of k as illustrated below:

f(x) = x³ – 6x² – 11x + k

x = –2

Thus,

f(–2) = 0

x³ – 6x² – 11x + k = 0

(–2)³ – (–2)² – 11(–2) + k = 0

–8 – (4) + 22 + K = 0

–8 – 4 + 22 + K = 0

10 + k = 0

Collect like terms

k = 0 – 10

k = –10

Thus, the value of k is –10
