Answer:1.55?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 2(x + 3)² - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
Using the method of completing the square
y = 2x² + 12x + 14 ← factor out 2 from the first 2 terms
= 2(x² + 6x) + 14
To complete the square
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² + 6x
y = 2(x² + 2(3)x + 9 - 9 ) + 14
= 2(x + 3)² - 18 + 14
= 2(x + 3)² - 4 ← in vertex form
Answer:
6 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
b - 3a / 9 = a /3
Cross multiply
3(b - 3a) = 9a
Expand
3b - 9a = 9a
Add 9a to both sides
3b = 9a + 9a
3b = 18a
Divide both sides by 3
b = 6a
Ratio of a : b
6 : 1
