Applying the completing square method:
f(x) = 2x² - 8x + 6
Dividing by a
f(x) = 2(x² - 4x + 3)
Adding and subtracting the square of b (which is 2 in this case)
f(x) = 2(x² + 2² - 4x -2² + 3)
f(x) = 2(x - 2)² - 2
The vertex is (2, -2) and it is a minimum since the coefficient of x is positive.
The answer is B.
Answer:
The correct answer is -3!

Answer:
infinitely many
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 12-y to both sides of the second equation to put it into standard form like the first equation:
y +(12 -y) = (x -12) +(12 -y)
12 = x - y . . . simplify
x - y = 12 . . . . second equation in standard form
We see this is identical to the first equation. That means every solution of the first equation is also a solution of the second equation. There are infinitely many solutions.
There are 8 because
5³ ⇒ 125
There are 1000 cubic inches.
And 1000 ÷ 125 ⇒ 8
You would divide 1/16 by 3/8
