Write 4x2 + 16x - 9 in vertex form.

Alexxx [7]3 years ago

We know that the vertex form of any quadratic function is the form:

f (x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

The given quadratic function is f(x) = 4x^2 + 16x - 9

To convert it into the vertex form we will have to complete the square of the quadratic expression given here which may be done as shown below:

f(x) = 4x^2 + 16x - 9 =4(x^2+4x)-9

Thus, f(x)=4(x^2+4x+\mathbf{4})-\boldsymbol{\mathbf{16}}-9 (This is because adding a 4 inside the parentheses to complete the square is equivalent to adding 16 to the whole expression and thus we need to subtract 16 from the overall expression.)

\therefore f(x)=4(x+2)^2-25

The above is the vertex form of the original given function, f(x) = 4x^2 + 16x - 9.

Starting with number 0 on my calculator, I do a calculation in five steps. At each step, I either add 1 or multiply by 2. What i
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

assuming only positive integers, the answer is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the smallest number that you can get by adding is:

  • start with 0
  • then add 1 = 1
  • add another 1 = 2
  • add another 1 = 3
  • add another 1 = 4
  • add another 1 = 5

but you can also multiply, and anything multiplied by 0 is 0:

  • start with 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0
  • multiply by 2 = 0

The question does not say that we need to do any specific calculation, it only gives us 2 options and we can choose them as many times as we want.

What is 2x+1<8x-2 I dont get it please help
rjkz [21]

Answer: x> 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

if 2x+1∠ 8x-2

inequality , treat this problem like any other equation

have the unknown(x) in one side, and the values on the other side

2x-8x < -1-2

-6x< -3  we multiply by -1, do not forget if we multiply by -1 the sign will change

6x>3  divide by 3

2x>1

x>1/2

for the question. 19. Solve this equation: 80 = 3y + 2y + 4 + 1. A. y = 15 B. y = 75 C. y = –15 D. y = 1/5
Scorpion4ik [409]
80 = 3y+ 2y+4+1
Simplfy like terms:
80 = 5y + 5
-5           -5
75 = 5y
5       5
y = 15 
The answer is A. hope this helps
