The coordinates of the vertex of the graph are (-2, -9).

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The quadratic function is described by the standard equation \boxed{ \ f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c \ }.  The graph of a quadratic function is called a parabola.

We have the quadratic function \boxed{ \ f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 5 \ }.

  • We identify the coefficients a, b, and c. For this equation, \boxed{ \ a = 1, b = 4, and \ c = -5 \ }
  • The axis of symmetry is \boxed{ \ x = h = -\frac{b}{2a} \ }, i.e., \boxed{ \ x = h = -\frac{4}{2(1)} \rightarrow h = -2 \ }. Thus, the statement in the question for the symmetry axis x = -2 is correct.
  • The vertex (or turning point) is \boxed{ \ (h, k) \ }, where \boxed{ \ k = f(h) \ }  or \boxed{ \ k = \frac{b^2 - 4ac}{-4a} \ }
  • The parabola opens upward because a > 0, resulting in a vertex that is a minimum.

Finding the minimum value is as follows:

  • \boxed{ \ k = f (-2) = (-2)^2 + 4(-2) - 5 \rightarrow k = -9 \ }, or
  • \boxed{ \ k = \frac{4^2 - 4(1)(-5)}{-4(1)} = -\frac{36}{4} \rightarrow k = -9 \ }

Therefore, the coordinates of the vertex of the graph are (h, k), i.e., \boxed{\boxed{ \ (-2, -9) \ }}

Other components:

  • The y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) = x² + 4x - 5 is (0, c), i.e., the point \boxed{ \ (0, -5) \ }.
  • The factorization of f (x) = x² + 4x - 5 becomes f(x) = (x + 5)(x - 1). Then we get the x-intercepts at \boxed{ \ (-5, 0) \ and \ (1, 0) \ }

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Some nasty order of operations coming up.

Firstly, deal with that squared:

-12 / 3 * (-8 + 16 - 6) + 2

Simplify the bracket:

-12 / 3 * 2 + 2

Simplify -12 / 3:

-4 * 2 + 2

Simplify -4 * 2:

-8 + 2

Simplify:

-6

Ahat [919]
So 6+3 is 9 right? So let's just say it's 9:37 with a 45 min ride. 60 minutes are in a hour. 60 - 37 = 23. We have 23 minutes left until 10:00. 45- 23 = 22. Therefore it'd be 10:22 p.m.
