First, start with the distribution property.
84=8a-24a-28.
next do any possible properties of equality.
84+28=8a-24a
simplify
112=-16a
-112/16=a

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute: 84 = 8a - 24a - 28

Add like terms: 84 = -16a -28

remove -28: 84 + 28 = -16a -28 + 28 ---> 112= -26a

Isolate variable : 112/-16 = -26a/-16

Answer: 7

Please find which quadratic equation matches the graph with work attached
lesya [120]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we know that the function must be negative due to its shape. This means that the answer cannot be B

Next we can use the equation x=\frac{-b}{2a} that is used in order to find the vertex of the parabola.

A)

f(x)=-x^2+6x+7\\a=-1,b=6,c=7\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\x=3

As the vertex is at x=3 on the graph, this one could be a contender.

C)

f(x)=-x^2+6x-7\\a=-1,b=6, c=-7\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\\\x=3

This also could be the equation

D)

f(x)=-x^2-6x-7\\\\a=-1, b=-6, c=-7\\\\x=\frac{6}{-2} \\\\x=-3

This rules option D out.

For this last step, we can look at where the zeroes would be for each equation. (These values are irrational, so we cannot look at specific number)

A)

f(x)=-(x^2-6x-7)

As this equation has a negative value for c, this means that one zero must be positive and the other must be negative.

This means that option A can be ruled out

C)

f(x)=-(x^2-6x+7)

As this equation has a positive value for c, this means that both of the zeroes must be positive. This means that it is the only one that fits all of the criteria.
