Answer:
-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = –2x^2 + 2x + 3
Subtract 3 from each side
-3 = –2x^2 + 2x
Factor out the -2
-3 =- 2(x^2 -x)
Take the coefficient of x and divide by 2 and square it
-1 /2 = -1/2 ^2 = 1/4
Add it to each side Remember the -2 on the outside so we need to multiply it by -2
-2 *1/4 = -1/2
-3 -1/2= -2(x^2 -x +1/4)
-7/2 = -2(x^2 -x +1/4)
-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2
It is true because
when you separate 2y^2 +9y -18, you are supposed to get the factors
(2y-3)(y+6), when you multiply this it gives you the first equation, we know
this because when we multiply the first term it gives us exactly 2y^2 and if we
multiply the last ones it gives you -18, now here is the tricky part, when we
multiply the middle part we get 12y and -3y, when we add these up we get 9y,
now is that the same middle as in the equation? Yes… then our factors are correct
making this true
Hope this helps
The correct answer is D.) Line AE
Remark
All vertical lines are of the form x = a. The y value only places where the point is on the grid.
For this particular question the x value of the point is where the vertical line is. At x = -2 draw a vertical line. The graph shows what this looks like.
The graph (x = - 2) is in red.
The point (-2,10) is green.
