Answer:

(5, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's multiply the function out:

f(x) = (x-8)(x-2)

f(x)=x^2-2x-8x+16\\f(x)=x^2-10x+16

The vertex is (h, k), where

h = -b/2a

and

k is plugging in h into the equation

  • a is the number before the x^2 term, hence a = 1
  • b is the number before x term, hence b = -10
  • c is the constant , hence c = 16

Plugging these into the formula for h, we get:

h=-\frac{b}{2a}\\=-\frac{-10}{2(1)}\\=5

Now pluggin in 5 into the equation we get:

x^2-10x+16\\(5)^2-10(5)+16\\=-9

Hence, vertex is (5, -9)

Answer: (5,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to apply Distributive property:

f(x) = (x-8)(x-2)\\f(x)=x^2-2x-8x+16\\f(x)=x^2-10x+16

Find the x-coordinate of the vertex with this formula:

x=\frac{-b}{2a}

In this case:

b=-10\\a=1

Then you get:

x=\frac{-(-10)}{2*1}=5

Substitute x=5 into the function to find the y-coordinate:

f(5)=y=5^2-10(5)+16=-9

Therefore the vertex is: (5,-9)

12x - 84 = 4x + 12. What does X equal?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, you have to leave the x alone,

To do so, you have to add 84 on each side

12x = 4x + 96

Then, subtract 4x on each side,

8x = 96

Then divide each side by 8, so

x = 12

Hope it helps!!

Let me know if I'm wrong or you need help on anything else!!

Also, if you're okay with it, can you plz make be brainliest?
