Remark
It's asking you to complete the square to find the vertex. 

Solve
y = -2x^2 + x + 3 Put brackets around the first 2 terms.
y = (-2x^2 + x) + 3    Pull out the 2.
y = -2(x^2 - 1/2 x) + 3 Be especially observant of the sign on 1/2x Divide the middle term's number by 2 and square it. 
y = -2(x^2 - 1/2 x + [(1/2) / 2]^2 ) + 3 [1/2 divided by 2 is 1/4. (1/4)^2 = 1/16; 2*(1/16) = 1/8
y = - 2(x^2 - 1/2 x + (1/4)^2 ) + 3 + 1/8
y = -2(x - 1/4)^2 + 3 1/8

Comment
Answer to your question. The maximum value (3 1/8) is above the y axis. That means the graph of the equation crosses the x axis twice. I'm going to include the graph because in answering the question, there is no harm in seeing the graph.

Johnny ran 3/4 of an hour and Angie ran 2/3 of an hour how much more did Johnny run
yawa3891 [41]
3/4 = 9/12
2/3 = 8/12

9/12 - 8/12 = 1/12

So Johnny ran for 1/12 of an hour longer than Angie.

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Both angles are supplementary and will add up to 180°

5x - 5 + 2x + 10 = 180

collect like terms

5x + 2x +10 -5 = 180

7x + 5 = 180

7x = 180 - 5

7x = 175

x = 175/7

x=25

guapka [62]

Step-by-step explanation: The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5

Therefore

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y=f(x)=

to find the f(x) when x=-1 :

That is to find f(-1)

Put x=-1 in the given function f(x)=

Therefore

The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5
