Answer:
vertex = (- 5, - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic in standard form : ax² + bx + c = 0 : a ≠ 0
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
= - 
Given x² + 10x = - 17 ( add 17 to both sides )
x² + 10x + 17 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 1, b = 10, c = 17, then
= -
= - 5
Substitute x = - 5 into the quadratic for the corresponding value of y
y = (- 5)² + 10(- 5) + 17 = 25 - 50 + 17 = - 8
Hence vertex = (- 5, - 8)
Answer: 6 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 miles wide * 1 inch / 0.25 miles = 6 inches :D
5x-10x+ 2(3y-2)= 10y-5x + 4
Multiply 2 x 3y and by -2
5x-10x+6y-4=10y-5x+4
You get 6y-4
-5x+6y-4=10y-5x+4
Subtract 10x from 5x to get -5x
6y-4=10y+4
Add 5x to the -5x
6y=10y+8
Add 4 to the other side to get 8
-4y=8
Subtract 6y-10y to get -4y
-4y/-4=8/-4
Divide -4y and 8 by -4 to get y by itself and -2
Y=-2
