Answer:
-3, 7, 8
Step-by-step explanation:
You can fill in the boxes from the table values as shown in the attachment.
The leading coefficient is negative because the parabola opens downward. The value of it is the change in y-value as x changes by 1 unit either side of the vertex.
The vertex is identified by the fact that the y-values are symmetrical either side of the vertex.
The question is a scientific inquiry. The explanation does not fit any of the four.
Ok, first group x terms
f(x)=(x²+4x)-8
factor out quadratic coefient (no need but that's the step)
f(x)=1(x²+4x)-8
take 1/2 of the linear coefient and square it
4/2=2, (2)²=4
add positive and negative of it insides the parenthasees
f(x)=1(x²+4x+4-4)-8
factor perfect square
f(x)=1((x+2)²-4)-8
distribute
f(x)=1(x+2)²-4-8
f(x)=1(x+2)²-12
and, now if we wanted to find the x intercepts where f(x)=0 then
0=1(x+2)²-12
12=(x+2)²
+/-2√3=x+2
-2+/-2√3=x
x=-2+2√3 or -2-2√3
that is where the x intercept are
and completed square form is
f(x)=(x+2)²-12
Well, easy . all u need 2 do is add one pitcher (6/6) with the remains of the other pitcher (2/6) = 8/6 which turns into 1 and 2/6 which is 1 and 1/3
