For the given quadratic equation convert into vertex form, find the vertex, and find the value for x=6. Show your work.
astraxan [27]
A quadratic equation has the general form of: 
<span>
y=ax² + bx + c
</span><span>
It can be converted to the vertex form in order to determine the vertex of the parabola. It has the standard form of:
</span><span>
y = a(x+h)² - k
</span><span>
where h, k are the vertex points.
</span><span>
y=-2x^2 + 2x+ 2
</span><span>y=-2(x^2 - x) + 2
</span><span>y + 1/4 = -2 (x^2 -x +1/4) + 2
</span><span>y = -2 (x - 1/2)^2 + 7/4
</span><span>
Therefore, the vertex is (-1/2, -7/4)
</span><span>
at x = 6, y = -58</span>

Given the following cross TtYyRr x TtyyRr (T = tall; t = short Y = yellow; y = green R = round; r = wrinkled), what proportion o
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

3/32 ttyyR-  

Explanation:

Cross: Tall, Yellow, Rounded individuals with a tall, green, rounded individual

Parentals) TtYyRr      x      TtyyRr      

Gametes) TYR, TyR, TYr, Tyr, tYR, tyR, tYr, tyr (Parent one)

                 TyR, TyR, Tyr, Tyr, tyR, tyR, tyr, tyr (Parent two)

We need to know what proportion of offspring is expected to be short plants with round, green seeds. So we need to identify the gametes for these traits. The genotypes are:

  • Shot → tt
  • Round → RR or Rr
  • Green → yy

⇒ Parent one can provide gametes tyR and tyr

⇒ Parent two can provide gametes tyR and tyr

(1/8 tyR x 2/8 tyR) + (1/8 tyR x 2/8 tyr) + (1/8 tyr x 2/8 tyR) =

2/64 ttyyRR + 2/64 ttyyRr + 2/64 ttyyRr =

1/32 ttyyRR + 2/32 ttyyRr =

3/32 ttyyR-
