Answer:

Minimum at (-4, -10)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 8x + 6

The coefficient of x² is positive, so the parabola opens upward, and the vertex is a minimum.

Subtract the constant from each side

x² + 8x = -6

Square half the coefficient of x

(8/2)² = 4² = 16

Add it to each side of the equation

x² + 8x + 16 = 10

Write the left-hand side as the square of a binomial

(x + 4)² = 10

Subtract 10 from each side of the equation

(x+ 4)² -10 = 0

This is the vertex form of the parabola:

(x - h)² + k = 0,

where (h, k) is the vertex.

h = -4 and k = -10, so the vertex is at (-4, -10).

The Figure below shows your parabola with a minimum at (-4, -10).

What is the greatest common factor of the terms 14c to the second power D and 42 C to the third power d
irina [24]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

To find the GCF we factor all the given terms and then find the Greatest Common Factor from both ,


So , The given two terms can be given by

14c^2d = 2.7.c.c.d\\42c^3d =2.3.7.c.c.c.d\\

Here common numbers that are in both are

2.7.c.c.d

so GCF= 14c^2d

Can someone please write an equation to model this scenario which relates to the first two questions. I need it ASAP!
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

y = 50x + 200

Step-by-step explanation:

the 200 is the y intercept because it is where his pay starts, so even if Matt doesnt make any sales he will still get 200 that week

the slope (50) is determined because that is what will change

if he makes 2 sales he will make 100 + 200 that week, and if he makes 4 sales he will make 200 + 200 that week and so on
