The vertex is when x=-b/2a, which is also the line of symmetry.
in this case, b=6, a=3, so x=-6/6=-1
when x=-1. y=3-6-1=-4
another way to do it is to write the equation into vertex form by making a square:
3x²+6x-1
3(x²+2x-1/3)
3(x²+2x+1-1-1/3))
3(x²+2x+1-4/3))
notice the bold part makes a square:
3(x+1)²-4
Either way,
the vertex is (-1, -4)
the axis of symmetry is x=-1
the coefficient of x² is 3, a positive number, so this parabola opens upward. the function has a minimum value of y=-4
the range is all real number larger than -4
Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers on a six-sided die are as shown:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
The even numbers are:
2, 4, 6
The numbers greater than 3 are:
3, 4, 5, 6
Both lists together are:
2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Because 5 out of 6 numbers satisfy these conditions, the probability of satisfying these conditions is 5/6.
16.92 × 8.4 = 142.128
This is called the product
x, -x,-4, |-1.5|, |5|, |-6|
