The x coordinate of the vertex will be the average of the two zeros, here -3 and 5, so x=(-3+5)/2 = 1, f(1)=(1+3)(1-5) = -16.
Answer: (1, -16)
Let's do it some other ways. How about completing the square to turn f in to vertex form?
f(x) = (x+3)(x-5) = x² - 2x - 15 = (x² - 2x + 1) - 1 - 15 = (x-1)² - 16
and now we can read off (1, -16) as the vertex.
The other method is the vertex is x= - b/2a = - (-2)/2(1) = 1.
Three methods, same answer. Good.
Answer:
8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
5 - 1 = 4 grams
10% of 5 = 0.5 grams per hour
4/0.5 = 8 hours
Answer:
If we are working in a coordinate plane where the endpoints has the coordinates (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) then the midpoint coordinates is found by using the following formula:
midpoint=(x1+x22,y1+y22)
