Answer:

a = 1, b = -2, c = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in <u>factored form</u> shows the roots with the "r" and "s" variables. Note that they are written <u>negative "r"</u> and <u>negative "s"</u> in the formula.

y = a(x - r)(x - s)

The <u>vertex is always halfway between the two roots</u>.

<------[root]--------[vertex]--------[root]---->

The vertex is at x = 1, and one root is at x = 3. The other root is at x = -1.

Write the equation in factored form to show the two roots.

y = a(x - 3)(x + 1)

<u>Substitute the vertex (1, -4)</u> into the equation. The point is written (x, y).

-4 = a(1 - 3)(1 + 1)

Solve for "a".

-4 = a(-2)(2)      Simplify within the brackets

-4 = -4a          Multiply -2 and 2. Divide both sides by -4

a = 1             Solved for "a" (and kept the variable on the left side).

<u>Substitute a = 1</u> back into the formula.

y = a(x - 3)(x + 1)

y = 1(x - 3)(x + 1)

We don't have to write multiplied by 1 though, because anything multiplied by 1 is itself.

y = (x - 3)(x + 1)

Since we are looking for "a", "b", and "c", find the equation in <u>standard form</u>.

y = ax² + bx + c

To change factored form into standard form, <u>expand</u> the brackets.

y = (x - 3)(x + 1)

y = x² + x - 3x - 3

y = x² - 2x - 3

Compare the expanded equation to y = ax² + bx + c

∴ a = 1, b = -2, c = -3

To solve this questions, we can turn 2 into a fractions.

2 as a fraction is 2/1 (because 2 divide by 1 is still 2)
We can now use this to get our answer. 

1/3  ÷ 2/1 
=  1/3 × 1/2    (flip the fraction and then multiply)
= 1/6          (1 x 1 / 3 x 6)

Or 0.16666.. as a decimal

Also how would you round 2.59 to the nearest tenths ?
Maslowich

Answer:

<em>2.6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The tenths digit is the 5.

Drop every digit after the 5. You get 2.5

Now you need to see if the 5 stays as it is or if it goes up by 1 to 6.

The first digit after the 5 you dropped is 9. Since 9 is greater than 4, the previous digit goes up by 1, so the 5 becomes a 6.

The final answer is 2.6
