Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 integers be x and x + 1

2(x + 1) + 186 = x

2x + 188 = x

x = -188

therefore the 2 integers are -188 and -187

Find vertex of: y=(x-4)(x+8)

ki77a [65]

Answer:

(-2,-36)

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=(x-4)(x+8)$

1) Find the zeros of the parabola

The zero-product property states that any value, when multiplied by 0 will equal 0. Therefore, to make y=0, either (x-4)=0 OR (x+8)=0.

Therefore, x=4 and x=-8.

2) Find the x-coordinate of the vertex

To do this, we take the average of our zeros.

$\frac{4+(-8)}{2} \\=\frac{-4}{2} \\=-2$

Therefore, the x-coordinate of the vertex is -2.

3) Find the y-coordinate of the vertex

Plug the x-coordinate back into the original equation

$y=(-2-4)(-2+8)\\y=(-6)(6)\\y=-36$

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the vertex is -36.

Therefore, the vertex of the parabola is (-2,-36).

I hope this helps!

If angle 0 is in quadrant I, what is the value of

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

$the \: answer \: is \: c \: = - \frac{ \sqrt{14} }{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin^{2}0 + ( \frac{ \sqrt{11} }{5} ) ^{2} = 1( \sin^{2}0 + \cos^{2} 0 = 1)$

${ \sin }^{2}0 + \frac{11}{25} = 1 \\ { \sin }^{2}0 = \frac{14}{25}$

$\sin0_{1} = - \frac{ \sqrt{14}}{5} while \sin0_{2} = \frac{ \sqrt{14} }{5}$

Therfore theta is QI
Therfore sin theta >0
$therefore \: \sin0 = \frac{ \sqrt{14} }{5}$
