Does the graph f(x)=-2x^2 -1 have a maximum or a minimum? Explain.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serga [27]3 years ago

Answer:

It has a maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I think about it is looking at "a" (the leading variable's coefficient, so __x²), if it's negative, the graph is a frown, but if it's positive, it's a smile. In this case, a is -2, so the graph would have the shape of a frown, which has a maximum.

I hope this helped!

In a right triangle PQR,∠Q=90
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

a) PR = 17 cm, b) QR = 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

∠Q=90, so PQ and QR are legs, and PR is hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem PQ² + QR² = PR²

a) PQ² + QR² = PR²

    8² + 15² = PR²

PR² = 289

PR = 17 cm

b) PQ² + QR² = PR²

   8² + QR² = 10²

64 + QR² = 100

QR² = 36

QR = 6 cm

I dont understand this help me :( What is the equation of a line with a slope of ​3​ and a point (3, 1) on the line?
spayn [35]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies 3 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-1=3(x-3) \\\\\\ y-1=3x-9\implies y=3x-8
