Answer:

f(x)=(x-3)^2-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form: f(x) = a(x-h)^2+k

x^2-6x+9+2=f(x)+9

(x-3)^2+2=f(x)+9

f(x)=(x-3)^2-7

Solve the equation. \dfrac32 + b = \dfrac74 2 3 +b= 4 7 start fraction, 3, divided by, 2, end fraction, plus, b, equals, sta

Xelga [282]

Given:

The equation is

$\dfrac{3}{2}+b=\dfrac{7}{4}$

To find:

The value of b.

Solution:

We have,

$\dfrac{3}{2}+b=\dfrac{7}{4}$

Subtracting both sides by $\dfrac{3}{2}$ , we get

$b=\dfrac{7}{4}-\dfrac{3}{2}$

$b=\dfrac{7-2(3)}{4}$

$b=\dfrac{7-6}{4}$

$b=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the value of b is $\dfrac{1}{4}$ .

F(x) = 6x + 5. Work out, simplifying fully: 2f(x) + 6.

Yuki888 [10]

Replace the f(x) in the second equation will 6x + 5 so then it looks like 2(6x + 5) + 6. Then distribute so it’s 12x + 10 + 6 and then simplify to 12x + 16
