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)

One spinner has three equally sized sectors numbered 1, 2, and 3. A second spinner has two equally sized sectors labeled Top (T)
SSSSS [86.1K]
I would say, well, if there are 3 sides that are equal on spinner 1. They are equal. But, we are focusing on spinner two that has two sides. If there is only 2 equal sides then, they would have to be straight across from each other. So that is 180. 360 is full circle. take away 180 to get answer. 
360-180=180
I hope this helped. And sorry if it is not the correct answer. But that is how I would of answered it
