Answer:
a) Upwards
b) x = -1
c) (-1,-9)
d) x intercepts; (2,0) and (-4,0)
y intercept is (0,-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) As we can see, the parabola faces upwards
b) To find the axis of symmetry equation, we look at the plot of the graph and see the point through the vertex of the parabola that exactly divides the parabola into two equal parts
The x-value that the line passes through here is the point x = -1 and that is the equation of the axis of symmetry
c) The vertex represents the lowest point of the circle here,
As we can see, this is the point through which the axis of symmetry passes through to make a symmetrical division of the parabola
We have the coordinates of this point as
(-1,-9)
d) The intercepts
The x-intercept are the two points in which the parabola crosses the x-axis
We have this point as 2 and -4
The x-intercepts are at the points (2,0) and (-4,0)
For the y-intercept; it is the y-coordinate of the point at which the parabola crosses the y-axis and this is the point (0,-8)
Answer:
x² - 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the FOIL method here where
F = first
O = outer
I = inner
L = last
F = x * x = x²
O = -4 * x = -4x
I = 4 * x = 4x
L = -4 * 4 = -16
Combine the terms to get x² - 16.
C
If you plug in the values in that equation, it works.
I just finished this test and the correct answer is "4x + 6y < 120" or "B"
