Gradient of line= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Gradient of line= (10-(-6))/(8-4)
Gradient of line= 16/4
Gradient of line= 4
Y-intercept
Y=4x+c
When x=8, y=10
10=32+c
c= -22
Equation of line
Y=4x-22
When x=b, y=2b
Y=4x-22
2b=4b-22
22=2b
b=11
We have that
y = 3x²<span>+ 2x + 1
step 1</span>
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation
y -1= (3x²+ 2x)
step 2
Factor the leading coefficient
y -1= 3*(x²+ 2/3x)
step 3
Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side
y -1+(1/3)= 3*(x²+ (2/3)x+(4/36))
y-2/3=3*(x+2/6)²
the vertex is the point (-2/6, 2/3)------> (-0.33,0.67)
the answer is
(-0.33,0.67)
