-b / 2a = 12 / -4 = -3;
-Δ / 4a = - ( 144 - 184 ) / -8 = 40 / -8 = -5

y=-2x^2-12x-23 \\ \\a=-2 ,\ b=12,\ c=-23 \\ \\ vertex(h, k) \ is \ given \ by: \\ \\h = \frac{-b}{2a} , \ \ k = \frac {-\Delta }{4a }

\Delta =b^2-4ac = 12^2-4\cdot(-2) \cdot (-23)=144-184=-40

h=\frac{ 12}{2\cdot (-2)}=\frac{12}{-4}=-3 \\ \\k=\frac{40}{4\cdot (-2)}=\frac{40}{-8}=-5 \\ \\Answer : \ vertex \ \ (-3,-5)

What is the value of x in the equation 2x+7=1
Lesechka [4]
First....we need to do inverse operation

Subtract 7 from both sides.

2x+7=1
    -7   -7

2x=-6

Now, we need to divide 2 by both sides to isolate x.

2x=-6
2x/2=-6/2
x=-3

Our final answer is that x= -3

What is the value of a?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Actually, the answer is not A, if you're saying A is the first choice above.  That's incorrect.  You will need to use the Geometric mean for right triangles here to figure out what the value of a is.  We will use this form: \frac{YZ}{WZ} = \frac{WZ}{XZ}.  We have a value for YZ of 3; side a is XZ.  That means in order to solve this we need WZ, which we can find using pythagorean's theorem.  3^2 + 4^2 = c^2 and 9 + 16 = c^2 and c = 5.  Now we fill in accordingly: \frac{3}{5}= \frac{5}{XZ}.  Cross-multiply to get 3XZ=25 and side XZ is \frac{25}{3}.  XZ is 25/3 and YZ is 3, so 25/3 - 3 = XY.  That means that XY (side a) = 16/3 or 5 1/3, choice B, or the second one down.
