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).

lesya [120]
<h3>Answer:  13/28</h3>

========================================================

The table shows he got 26 heads out of 26+30 = 56 coin flips.

26/56 = (2*13)/(2*28) = 13/28 is the empirical or experimetnal probablity of getting heads.

Side note: 13/28 = 0.4643 = 46.43% approximately which is fairly close to 50%

Is this right? I chose 15.
daser333 [38]

Answer:

Correct, it is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 3 turns into 9, you also want to multiply the other by 3, so you’d do 5x3 to get 15
