Reduce each ratio to its minimum expression to find if they are equal.
35:28
10:8
Since both ratios reduce to 5:4, they are equivalent.
Another way to check a:b is equivalent to c:d, is that a*d = b*c
In this case, this will be true if 35 times 8 is equal to 10 times 28:
Since both products are equal, then the ratios are equivalent.
Answer:
vertex = (- 1, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a parabola in standard form
y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
x = -
y = x² + 2x + 2 ← is in standard form
with a = 1 and b = 2 , then
x = - = - 1
substitute x = - 1 into the equation for y- coordinate of vertex
y = (- 1)² + 2(- 1) + 2 = 1 - 2 + 2 = 1
vertex = (- 1, 1 )
