8 1/65
thats the answer to the simple question
Answer:
a = -1 , b = 4 , c = 3 , d = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The general rules of exponent:

===================================================
Given:

The right hand side = (-xy)³ (xz) = (-1)³ x³ y³ x z = (-1) x⁴ y³ z
Comparing the right hand side with the left hand side
∴ a = -1
∴ b = 4
∴ c = 3
∴ d = 1
The coordinates of the vertex are (h,k) so we can write:-
f(x) = a(x -2)^2 - 4
now when f(x) = -7 x = 1 so:-
-7 = a(1-2)^2 - 4
-7 = a - 4
a = -3
so the vertex formula is
f(x) = -3(x - 2)^2 - 4
standard form:-
f(x) = -3(x^2 - 4x + 4) - 4
= -3x^2 + 12x - 16
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation: I honestly couldn't tell you how to do this, I don't understand it. I just took the test and got this question correct. The answer is A, (5-7)^2.
