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

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!

Answer:

a = 4, b = - $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{8-3\sqrt{2} }{2}$ = a + b $\sqrt{2}$ ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

8 - 3 $\sqrt{2}$ = 2a + 2b $\sqrt{2}$

For the 2 sides to be equal , then

2a = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 4

and

2b = - 3 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

b = - $\frac{3}{2}$
