Answer:

(-4, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to put this in vertex form by completing the square in order to determine the vertex.  Begin by setting the quadratic equal to 0 then moving the 12 over by subtraction:

x^2+8x=-12

The rules are to take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides.  Our linear term is 8.  Half of 8 is 4, and 4 squared is 16.  So we add 16 to both sides:

(x^2+8x+16)=-12+16

During this process we have created a perfect square biomial on the left. We will state that, along with simplifying on the right:

(x+4)^2=4

Now we will move the 4 back over and set it back to equal y:

(x+4)^2-4=y

And from this you can see that the coordinates of the vertex are (-4, -4)

Find the exact length of the curve. x=et+e−t, y=5−2t, 0≤t≤2 For a curve given by parametric equations x=f(t) and y=g(t), arc len
Rama09 [41]

The length of a curve <em>C</em> parameterized by a vector function <em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = <em>x(t)</em> i + <em>y(t)</em> j over an interval <em>a</em> ≤ <em>t</em> ≤ <em>b</em> is

\displaystyle\int_C\mathrm ds = \int_a^b \sqrt{\left(\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2} \,\mathrm dt

In this case, we have

<em>x(t)</em> = exp(<em>t</em> ) + exp(-<em>t</em> )   ==>   d<em>x</em>/d<em>t</em> = exp(<em>t</em> ) - exp(-<em>t</em> )

<em>y(t)</em> = 5 - 2<em>t</em>   ==>   d<em>y</em>/d<em>t</em> = -2

and [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] = [0, 2]. The length of the curve is then

\displaystyle\int_0^2 \sqrt{\left(e^t-e^{-t}\right)^2+(-2)^2} \,\mathrm dt = \int_0^2 \sqrt{e^{2t}-2+e^{-2t}+4}\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\int_0^2 \sqrt{e^{2t}+2+e^{-2t}} \,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\int_0^2\sqrt{\left(e^t+e^{-t}\right)^2} \,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\int_0^2\left(e^t+e^{-t}\right)\,\mathrm dt

=\left(e^t-e^{-t}\right)\bigg|_0^2 = \left(e^2-e^{-2}\right)-\left(e^0-e^{-0}\right) = \boxed{e^2-\frac1{e^2}}

Answer:

g = 61.

Step-by-step explanation:

g + 9 = 70             Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:

g + 9 - 9 = 70 - 9

g = 61.

Can anyone answer this for me?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

y = 2 - x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^{2} results in a parabola (U-shape). Adding a negative in front of it flips the parabola to look like an upside-down U.

The 2 makes it shift up two decimal spots to (0,2).

Can someone help me with this question?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

m<S' = 115

Step-by-step explanation:

A translation is when one shifts the image over on a coordinate plane. A translation doesn't affect the image itself. Hence m<S is the same as m<S'. Therefore m<S' = 115
