Answer:
The function has two x-intercepts.
The vertex of the function is (one-quarter, negative 6 and one-eighth).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the vertex is located at (0.25, -6) and the parabola opens up, the function has two x-intercepts.
f(x) = 2x² - x - 6 has the following coefficients:
a = 2
b = -1
c = -6
x-coordinate of the vertex is:
x = -b/(2a)
x = 1/(2*2) = 1/4
y-coordinate of the vertex is:
f(1/4) = 2(1/4)² - 1/4 - 6 = -6 1/8
Y= x + 3
1. Find the gradient(slope)
1 - 7 / - 2 - 4
=1
2. Find the y. Intercept ( c )
Y = x + c
Replace by any of the two coordinates given (4 , 7 )
7 = 4 + c
C= 3
Equation => Y = x + 3
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
• A line sloping upwards from left to right has a positive slope
• A line sloping downwards from left to right has a negative slope
The line shown here slopes downwards from left to right, hence has a negative slope → B
