Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
With the axis of symmetry, think of it as where you would slice this line in half, and both sides would look identical to each other. Since this is a quadratic function, this would be at where the vertex is.
The vertex is the part of the line where it "turns" around and starts going the other way. So vertex of this line is at (-1, 3).
Therefore, the axis of symmetry is at x = -1. This is since the function is pointing either up/down, and any value that is x = _ is a vertical line.
Here u go, u replace x by the number
Answer:
2. B
3. B
4. 2(7k+5h)
5. $325
Step-by-step explanation:
2) "X decreased by the sum of 2x + 5" Decreased means to be lowered, so that means this problem has subtraction in it. It also says x is being decreased BY the sum of 2x + 5 so that means 2x + 5 needs to be solved, which calls for parentheses. B best fits the description.
3) It is B because if you distribute the 8 to 2a and 3b, you'll get 16a and 24b, which is the given expression.
4) The given expression is 10h + 14k and in the equivalent expression, you are given 5h. To get from 10 to 5, you must divide by 2. This tells you that 2 is being distributed, so you put 2 before the parentheses. Since you divided 10 by 2, you want to do the same to 14, which is 7. Therefore, it is 2(7k+5h).
5) You are given the hourly charge, which is $25. This means that they charge $25 per hour/for every hour. You want to find the cost for 13 hours, so you multiply the hourly charge by 13 hours. 25 x 13 = 325.
