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)

You usually buy a 5.4 ounce bottle of lotion. There is a new bottle that says it gives you 20% more free. Write an equation to b
natka813 [3]
20% is 1/5 more so it is 1 1/5 times the size of the smaller one. 1 1/5 is 1.2 as a decimal (also 120% divided by 100).

Let's take the smaller bottle to be y.

x=1.2y
x=1.2*5.4=6.48 ounces.

Let f(x) = 5x^3 -2x and g(x) =3x^3. Find f(x) * g(x) & state the domain
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

f(x) × g(x)  = 15x^6 - 6x^4

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

f(x) = 5x^3 -2x and g(x) =3x^3.

f(x) × g(x)  = 3x^3(5x^3 -2x) = 15x^6 - 6x^4

What is the distance from 3, 5) to 4.-12)?​
enyata [817]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P1 = (3.5,5)  in the form  (x1,y1)

P2 = (3.5,-12) in the form (x2,y2)

dist = sqrt[ (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 ]

dist = sqrt[ (3.5-3.5)^2 + (-12-5)^2 ]

dist = sqrt [ 0  -17^2]

dist = 17
