Answer:
ax² + bx + c
Step-by-step explanation:
The form of a quadratic equation that is easy to use when finding the maximum or minimum value of the function is ax² + bx + c.
Suppose a quadratic function:
f(x) = 2x² - 8x + 9
Use ( -b/2a , f(-b/2a) ).
-b/2a
a = 2
b = -8
-(-8)/2(2)
8/4
= 2
f(2) = 2(2)² - 8(2) + 9
f(2) = 2(4) - 8(2) + 9
f(2) = 8 - 16 + 9
f(2) = 1
The minimum value of this quadratic function is (2, 1).
It represents a minimum value because a > 0.
Answer:
11/13
Step-by-step explanation:
4 out of the 26 marbles are blue, meaning that the rest of the 22 marbles are not blue. (26-4=22)
This means that out of the total 26, the chance of not picking a blue marble are 22/26=11/13
Point slope formula is y= mx+b. To find the slope, or m, you need to find the "rise over run". rise = y coordinates, run = x coordinates. And the slope equation is y1-y2/x1-x2. So let's say the first point is (x1,y1) and the second is (x2,y2). that would be 35-(-31)/5-(-6)= 66/11 or 6/1 aka up six, across one. That is your slope. So far you have y=6x+b, next plug (5,35) into that equation and solve for b (aka the y intercept). So: 35=6(5)+b. 35-30=b, b=5. So your final equation is y=6x+5.
