Because this is a positive parabola, it opens upwards, like a cup, and the vertex dictates what the minimum value of the function is. In order to determine the vertex, I recommend completing the square. Do that by first setting the function equal to 0 and then moving the 9 to the other side by subtraction. So far:

. Now, to complete the square, take half the linear term, square it, and add that number to both sides. Our linear term is 6. Half of 6 is 3 and 3 squared is 9. So add 9 to both sides.

. The right side reduces to 0, and the left side simplifies to the perfect square binomial we created while completing this process.

. Move the 0 back over and the vertex is clear now. It is (-3, 0). Therefore, 0 is the minimum point on your graph. The first choice above is the one you want.
Answer:
3/3, 9/9, 12/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Equivilant fractions are only the ssame number on top of each other OR a number on top of a 1
Answer:
21) 12 cm
22) 5.9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
21) The base is 10, and if the other two sides are congruent and the perimeter is 36, we can figure out with simple algebra that the sides are 13 cm long.
Half of 10 is 5, so we can use the pythagorean theorem.
5^2+x^2=13^2
Rearranging the variables we have 169-25=x^2
144=x^2
x can be plus or minus 12, but since negative length is impossible we find that x is positive 12 cm.
22) We want to use sine, because we have opposite and hypotenuse. A simple and easy way to memorize this is the SohCahToa method. If we have opposite (O) and hypotenuse (H) we have OH. Soh has the letters O and H, and the S means we should use sine.
sine 36=a/10
Plug this into a calculator or desmos scientific calculator to get a=5.9
Graph the point (0,2). From there go up 8 points and right 1 point. Again, from the point (0,2) go down 8 points and left 1 point. Hope this helps!
