Vertex of x^2 + 6x + 17

Mathematics
1 answer:
jekas [21]3 years ago
5 0

We have: f(x)=x^2+6x+17

Method 1.

Use: (*)\ \ \ \ \ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2

and the vertex form f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k

(h, k) - the coordinates of a vertex

x^2+6x+17=x^2+2\cdot x\cdot3+17=\underbrace{x^2+2\cdot x\cdot3+3^2}_{(*)}-3^2+17\\\\=(x+3)^2+8\to h=-3;\ k=8

Answer: (-3, 8)

Method 2.

For f(x)=ax^2+bx+c the coordinates of a vertex (h, k) are equal

h=\dfrac{-b}{2a};\ k=f(h)=\dfrac{-(b^2-4ac)}{4a}

We have: f(x)=x^2+6x+17\to a=1;\ b=6;\ c=17

Substitute:

h=\dfrac{-6}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{-6}{2}=-3\\\\k=f(-3)=(-3)^2+6(-3)+17=9-18+17=8

Answer: (-3, 8)

Find the area of the composite figure in terms of the figure (use 3.14 for pi)​
svp [43]

Answer:

105.12 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find the area of the rectangle.

10\cdot8=80 ft², so the rectangle has an area of 80ft².

To find the area of the semi-circle, we find the area of a whole circle and divide by two.

The formula to find the area of a circle is \pi r^2. The radius is 4, as the diameter is 8.

3.14\cdot4^2

3.14\cdot16

50.24\div2=25.12

Add 80 and 25.12:

80+25.12=105.12

Hope this helped!
