To tell isf a table is proportional, divide y by x,
if all sets are the same it is proportional.
First table:
3 / -3 = -1
2 / -4 = -2
-1 and -2 are not the same
Table 2:
1/-1 = -1
3/-3 = -1
5/-5 = -1
These are all the same.
Table 2 is correct.
<span>The first part of the quadratic formula, x = - b/2a, is the equation of the axis of symmetry, and the x-coordinate of the vertex. </span>
<span>In standard form: - 2x² + 8x - 5 = 0, a = - 2, b = 8, c = - 5 </span>
<span>The axis of symmetry: x = - 8/2(- 2) = - 8/- 4 = 2 </span>
<span>Go back and solve for y to find the y-coordinate of the vertex. </span>
<span>y = - 2(2)² + 8(2) - 5 </span>
<span>y = - 2(4) + 16 - 5 </span>
<span>y = - 8 + 16 - 5 </span>
<span>y = 3 </span>
<span>Vertex is (2, 3)</span>
