Vertex is -b/2a. The variable b=2 and a=2. That finds the x coordinate of the vertex. Then to find the y coordinate you just plug the number you got for x (-1/2) into the equation. Like so:
y = 2x+2
y = 2(-1/2)+2
y = -1+2
y = 1
So your vertex is ( -1/2, 1 )
To graph your vertex you take your x coordinate (-1/2) and find it on the x axis of the graph (horizontal line). Then do the same for y (1) (on the vertical axis.
Now that you have your vertex graphed you can find out if it is minimum or maximum by looking at the direction in which the slope is going. If it goes in the positive direction (up) then it is a minimum since that is the lowest point that the line touches. If it is maximum it is opposite. The line faces down and the highest point the line touches is that point.
4 divided by 6 is 0.6666666667
Answer:
E. This polynomial could be factored by using grouping or the perfect squares methods.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 2x + 1
There is no greatest common factor
This is a perfect square
a^2 + 2ab+ b^2 = ( x+1)^2
We can factor this by grouping
x^2 + 2x + 1
(x^2 +x) + (x+1)
x( x+1) + x+1
Factor out x+1
( x+1) ( x+1)
This is not the difference of squares since there is no subtraction
Answer: The answer would be B) 9% Decrease!
275 - 250 = 25.
25/275 = 0.0909090909
0.0909090909 x 100 = 9.09090909091
Finally you'd round it to 9%.
Therefore there was a 9% decrease in the amount of large pizzas.
Hope this helps (: Stay safe.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The y- intercept is at (0, 6) ⇒ c = 6
The x- coordinate of the vertex is at the midpoint of the zeros, that is
m = 
= 
= - 2
Since the zeros are x = - 3 and x = - 1 then the factors are (x + 3), (x + 1) and
f(x) = a(x + 3)(x + 1) = a(x² + 4x + 3)
Comparing with f(x) = ax² + 8x + 6 ⇒ a = 2
Thus
f(x) = 2x² + 8x + 6
Substitute m = - 2 into the equation for value of n
n = 2(- 2)² + 8(- 2) + 6 = 8 - 16 + 6 = - 2
Hence
c = 6, m = - 2, a = 2, n = - 2
