What is the equation for the axis of symmetry for this quadratic function

Mathematics

hammer [34]2 years ago

Answer: x = -2

Step-by-step explanation: That axis of symmetry is the

fold line or the line that splits the parabola down the middle.

The line that makes this parabola symmetrical is x = -2.

So our axis of symmetry is x = -2.

An easy way to find it is average the zeros (x-intercepts) and multiply by 1/2.

So here, -4 + 0 is -4 and -4(1/2) is -2.

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

Identify the kind of curve. This is a vertical parabola that opens upwards.

The axis of symmetry is the line that divides the parabola into two identical sections.

This line must be a vertical line that passes through the Vertex.

The Vertex is the lowest point of the parabola.  Vertex = (-2, -4).

Then, the axis of symmetry must be x = -2

Add the markup to the original price

new price = original price + markup

Michelle is 7 years older than her sister Joan, and Joan is 3 years younger than their brother Ryan. If the sum of their ages is
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

(C) 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a systems of equations. Assuming m is Michelle's age, j is Joan's age, and r is Ryan's age, the equations are:

m = j + 7

j = r-3

m+j+r = 64

We can use substitution, since we know the "values" of m and j.

(j+7)+(r-3)+r = 64\\(j+7)+(2r-3)=64\\2r + j + 4 = 64\\2r + j = 60\\\\

r = 21, j = 18

So we know that Joan is 18 years old.

Hope this helped!
