Which equation is y = –6x^2 + 3x + 2 rewritten in vertex form? y = negative 6 (x minus 1) squared + 8 y = negative 6 (x + one-fo

mart [117]

Answer:

$y = -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2 -\frac{7}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$y = -6x^2 + 3x + 2$

Required

Rewrite in vertex form

The vertex form of an equation is in form of: $y = a(x - h)^2+ k$

Solving: $y = -6x^2 + 3x + 2$

Subtract 2 from both sides

$y - 2 = -6x^2 + 3x + 2 - 2$

$y - 2 = -6x^2 + 3x$

Factorize expression on the right hand side by dividing through by the coefficient of x²

$y - 2 = -6(x^2 + \frac{3x}{-6})$

$y - 2 = -6(x^2 - \frac{3x}{6})$

$y - 2 = -6(x^2 - \frac{x}{2})$

Get a perfect square of coefficient of x; then add to both sides

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<em>Rough work</em>

The coefficient of x is $\frac{-1}{2}$

It's square is $(\frac{-1}{2})^2 = \frac{1}{4}$

Adding inside the bracket of $-6(x^2 - \frac{x}{2})$ to give: $-6(x^2 - \frac{x}{2} + \frac{1}{4})$

To balance the equation, the same expression must be added to the other side of the equation;

Equivalent expression is: $-6(\frac{1}{4})$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The expression becomes

$y - 2 -6(\frac{1}{4})= -6(x^2 - \frac{x}{2} + \frac{1}{4})$

$y - 2 -\frac{6}{4}= -6(x^2 - \frac{x}{2} + \frac{1}{4})$

$y - 2 -\frac{3}{2}= -6(x^2 - \frac{x}{2} + \frac{1}{4})$

Factorize the expression on the right hand side

$y - 2 -\frac{3}{2}= -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2$

$y - (2 +\frac{3}{2})= -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2$

$y - (\frac{4+3}{2})= -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2$

$y - (\frac{7}{2})= -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2$

$y +\frac{7}{2} = -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2$

Make y the subject of formula

$y = -6(x - \frac{1}{2})^2 -\frac{7}{2}$

I'm sorry I'm too lazy to read all of that. However, I did get the main point. The river was going at 3 mph. Since he wanted to travel 10 miles upstream and downstream, you would have to subtract 20 by 3. This would mean he was going at a speed of 17 mph.

It is true, how??Here is explanation:

Consider a quadrilateral ABCD .Join diagnol AC so two triangles ABC & ACD will form.
Sum of interior angles of ABC is 180 and that of ACD is 180 as well.So, the total sum of the interior angles of ABC & ACD is 360 which is the sum of interior angles of quadrilateral itself.

Challenge A movie theater sends out a coupon for 35% off the price of a ticket. Write an equation

Greeley [361]

Answer:

The equation is y= 0,65 x

If x is the price of the ticket without the coupon, and the theater offers a discount if you have a coupon, then having a coupon means that the price a person ultimately pays (y) is the original price (x) minus a 35% of this price: y= x -0.35 x . By association: y= (1-0.35) x and then y= 0.65 x.

The line should be in the first quadrant because the first quadrant allows you to represent a situation in which the dependent variable (y) and the independent variable (x) are both positive. This is the case in this exercise, because both prices, the one without discount (x) and the one with discount (y) are necessary positive (you can not pay a negative price!).

Step-by-step explanation:

The price without discount (or without the coupon) is x.

The price with discount (or with coupon) is y.
y and x are both related: y is a percentage of x, specifically, y is 35% smaller than x. This means that y =0.65 x.
