You have a typo in your equation. For this type of quadratic equation, it always starts out with a negative coefficient of the t squared term.
To find the x-coordinate of the vertex, we just need to use the expression: -b/2a.
Then, we have:
-24 / (2(-4))
-24 / -8

Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
6(y2)-6(y1)= 0
2(x2)- -3(x1)=5
0/5=0
X equals 13 and that is the answer

Answer: x = 19.7 (choice C)</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
The reference angle is 24 degrees. Opposite that angle is the side 8 units long. The horizontal portion is unknown and it's the adjacent side.
Also unknown is the value of x which is the hypotenuse.
To summarize:
- opposite = vertical leg = 8
- adjacent = horizontal leg = unknown
- hypotenuse = x
The hypotenuse is always opposite the 90 degree angle.
To tie together the opposite and hypotenuse, we'll use the sine ratio
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(24) = 8/x
x*sin(24) = 8
x = 8/sin(24)
x = 19.6687 approximately
x = 19.7 after rounding to the nearest tenth.
