The graph of a function is a parabola that has a minimum at the point (-3,9). Which equation could represent the function?

Well there are no choices listed so it's going to be hard to say which; we'll write an expression for all of them and then give a few instances.

A parabola with a minimum forms a CUP, concave-up positive, meaning the coefficient a on x² must be positive, a>0.  

The general form with vertex (p,q) is

y = a(x-p)² + q

So for us, all our parabolas are of the form

y = a(x- -3)² + 9

y = a(x² + 6x + 9) + 9

y = ax² + 6ax + 9(a+1)

That's the general form for a parabola with vertex (-3,9); a>0 assure the parabola has a minimum at the vertex.

Some instances:

a=1 gives

Answer: y = x²+6x+18

a=4 gives

y = 4x² + 24x + 45

Other positive <em>a</em>s give other possible answers; without the choices it's impossible to know which one they're seeking.

What is the value of x in the solution to the system<br> x+y=10<br> x-y=4
ANEK [815]

Answer:

x = 7; y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the Trial and Error Method and found that x = 7 and y = 3

=> 7 + 3 = 10

=> 10 = 10. ✔

=> 7 - 3 = 4

=> 4 = 4. ✔

Therefore, x = 7 and y = 3

Hoped this helped.

Theresa and Mark are playing cards. Each card is -50 points.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

*Since each card is worth -50 points, you need to remember that a positive times a negative integer gives you a negative integer.*

Part A) Theresa has 5 cards so: 5 x -50 = -250

Theresa has -250 points.

Part B) Mark has 8 cards so: 8 x -50 = -400

Mark has -400 points.

Part C) Theresa has more points because -250 is closer to 0 on a number line.
