<span> first, write the equation of the parabola in the required form: </span>
<span>(y - k) = a·(x - h)² </span>
<span>Here, (h, k) is given as (-1, -16). </span>
<span>So you have: </span>
<span>(y + 16) = a · (x + 1)² </span>
<span>Unfortunately, a is not given. However, you do know one additional point on the parabola: (0, -15): </span>
<span>-15 + 16 = a· (0 + 1)² </span>
<span>.·. a = 1 </span>
<span>.·. the equation of the parabola in vertex form is </span>
<span>y + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>The x-intercepts are the values of x that make y = 0. So, let y = 0: </span>
<span>0 + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>We are trying to solve for x, so take the square root of both sides - but be CAREFUL! </span>
<span>± 4 = x + 1 ...... remember both the positive and negative roots of 16...... </span>
<span>Solving for x: </span>
<span>x = -1 + 4, x = -1 - 4 </span>
<span>x = 3, x = -5. </span>
<span>Or, if you prefer, (3, 0), (-5, 0). </span>
Answer:
47.77778 but really it's just 47
Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
689 - 464 = 225
225 /5 = 45
Answer:
The commutive property used twice, once on each of the two multiplication
The commutive property is where you can be able to switch around the numbers to multiply the problem to get your solution.
<span>4x^2 - 25
= (2x)^2 - 5^2 .................using a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)
= (2x + 5)(2x - 5)</span>
