Answer:

<em>Maximum: (-1,9)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Vertex form of the quadratic function</u>

If the graph of the quadratic function has a vertex at the point (h,k), then the function can be written as:

y=a(x-h)^2+k

Where a is the leading coefficient.

We are given the following function:

y =-2x^2-4x+7

To find the vertex, we need to complete squares. First, factor -2 on the first two terms:

y =-2(x^2+2x)+7

The expression in parentheses must be completed to represent the square of a binomial. Adding 1 and subtracting 1:

y =-2(x^2+2x+1- 1)+7

Taking out the -1:

y =-2(x^2+2x+1)+2+7

Factoring the trinomial and operating:

y =-2(x+1)^2+9

Comparing with the vertex form we have

Vertex (-1,9)

Leading coefficient: -2

Since the leading coefficient is negative, the function has a maximum value at its vertex, i.e.

Maximum: (-1,9)

Gini has a small garden that is 234 yards in length and 1 yard and with she grows roses 1/2 of her garden how many square yards
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

117 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of garden = 234 yards

Breadth of garden = 1 yard

She grows roses 1/2 of her garden.

Question asked:

How many square yards are Gini's garden has roses ?

Solution:

First of all we will find area of rectangular garden.

Area \  of \  rectangle = Length\times breadth

                             =234\times1 =234  \ square \ yards

Then, as here given half of garden, she grows roses, we will find half of the

rectangular garden.

\frac{1}{2} \ of 234\\\frac{1}{2} \times234 =117\ square\ yards

Therefore, 117 square yards of her garden has roses.
