Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This quadratic is of the form
where h and k are the coordinates of the vertex. Notice that inside the parenthesis it very specifically follows the format (<u>x -</u> h)². That means that if you have something like what we have here, ( x + 3)^2, it was originally (x - (-3))^2, and the value for h is -3. k is much simpler to determine. Our 2 at the end is a +2, so the k is 2. The vertex then is (-3, 2).
Answer:
<em>3 3/4 feet</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Perimeter of the garden = 20ft
If he wants the length of the garden to be 2 1/2 longer than its width, then;
L = 2 1/2 + W
L is the length
W is the width
Perimeter of the garden = 2(L+W)
P20 = 2(5/2 + W+W)
20 = 5 + 2W+2W
20 - 5 = 4W
15 = 4W
W = 15/4
<em>W = 3 3/4 ft</em>
<em>Hence the width of the garden is 3 3/4 feet</em>
