For
y=ax²+bx+c
the x value of the axis of symmetry is -b/(2a)
so test them
A., -b/(2a)=-(-8)/(2*-2)=8/-4=-2, yep
B. -b/(2a)=-2/(2*1/2)=-2/1=-2, yep
C. -b/(2a)=-(-16)/(2*4)=16/8=2, nope, need -2
D. -b/(2a)=-12/(2*3)=-12/6=-2, yep
answer is C
3 different ways since there are 3 switches
The slope of the line of the equation given is -2 (by solving for y, you get y = -2x+4).
So, in order to be perpendicular, you must take the negative reciprocal.
The slope would be -1/2.
Answer:
<h2>(x - 6)(x - 4)</h2><h2 />
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 10x + 24 = (x² - 6x) + (24 - 4x) = x(x - 6) + 4(6 - x) = (x - 6)(x - 4)
