Answer:
(-2,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is an upwards opening parabola, the minimum point is at the vertex
We can find the x coordinate of the vertex by
y = 2x^2 +8x +9
where a=2 b =8 and c =9
x = -b/2a
x = -8/(2*2)
= -8/4 = -2
The x coordinate is -2
Now substitute this in to find the y coordinate
y = 2(-2)^2 +8(-2)+9
= 2*4 -16+9
8-16+9
=1
The vertex = (-2,1), which is the minimum point
Answer:
The sum is close to 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 = 7/28
2/7 = 8/28
7/28 + 8/28 = 15/28
14/28 = 1/2 and 15/28 is close to 14/28
The GCF of the numerator and denominator in the following fraction of 21m^2n/28mn^2 is 7mn. 21m^2n/28mn^2 = 7mn*3m/7mn*4n = 3m/4n <span>
