Answer:

Vertex form

Step-by-step explanation:

You convert to vertex form a(x - b)^2 + c . The coordinates of the maxm/minm will be (b, c).

For example find minimum value of x^2 + 5x - 6:-

x^2 + 5x - 6

= (x + 2.5)^2 - 6.25 - 6

= (x + 2.5)^2 - 12.25

The coordinates of minimumm will be (-2.5, -12.25) The values of the minimum of the function is -12.25

Change the width 20/16 inches to a mixed numeral in simplest form.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:1 and 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, let's see the given: 20/16

So, we can take out 16 from the top to make it 1 4/16

Now, we can simplify that by dividing the top and bottom by 2: 1 2/8

We can simplify that again to get 1 1/4

So the answer is 1 and 1/4

Use the rules of exponents to evaluate or simplify. Write without negative exponents. 1/4^-1/2 = ___ a0

Nastasia [14]

For this case we have, by definition:

$a^{-b} =\frac{1}{a ^ b}$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

On the other hand we have that by definition:

$a^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{a}$

Thus, the expression can be written as:

$\frac{1}{\sqrt {\frac{1}{4}}} =$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{4}}}$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\frac{1*2}{1*1}=2$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

If triangle RST and triangle XYZ are similar, which of these equations must be true?

Delicious77 [7]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are similar, that means the proportions for corresponding sides will be the same.

I personally ignore the picture and use the labels of "triangle RST and triangle XYZ" that the problem gives because the XYZ picture is not lined up with the similarity it has with RST.

(A) says that side ST is corresponding with side YZ,

[] Triangle RST and triangle XYZ

-> Correct

(A) also says that side RT is corresponding with size XZ,

[] Triangle RST and triangle XYZ

-> Correct

This means that option A is the correct answer.
