-13 and -14

Since -27 is odd, divide it by 2 and ignore the remainder. You'll get -13. So, -27=-13+-14

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = first integer

x + 1 = second integer

x + x + 1 = -27

2x + 1 = -27

2x = -27 - 1

2x = -28

x = -28/2

x = -14

x + 1 = -14 + 1 = -13

so ur 2 numbers are : -13 and -14

Transform the given quadratic function into vertex form f(x) = quadratic function into vertex form f(x) = quadratic function int
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Vertex form: f(x) =(x +\frac{7}{2})^2 -\frac{53}{4}

The vertex is (-\frac{7}{2},-\frac{53}{4})

Step-by-step explanation:

For a general quadratic function the form is:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c

For the function

f(x) = x ^ 2+ 7x -1

The values of the coefficients for the function are the following: a = 1, b =7, c = -1

Take the value of b and divide it by 2. Then, the result obtained squares it.

\frac{b}{2}= \frac{7}{2}

(\frac{b}{2})^2=(\frac{7}{2})^2=\frac{49}{4}

Add and subtract \frac{49}{4}

f(x) = (x ^ 2 +7x +\frac{49}{4}) -\frac{49}{4}- 1

Write the expression of the form

f(x) = (x+\frac{b}{2})^2 +k

f(x) =(x +\frac{7}{2})^2 -\frac{53}{4}

The vertex is (-\frac{7}{2},-\frac{53}{4})

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

30 people

Step-by-step explanation:

100 people to the survey. And the question is practically asking how many people are left. So we have to subtract 60 from 100. And then subtract 10.

1.) 100 - 60 = 40

2.) 40 - 10 = 30

Hope this helps you out! : )
