Answer:
x-intercept (s):
For this case h (x) = 0
x2 - 2x - 8 = 0
(x-4) * (x + 2) = 0
x1 = 4
x2 = -2
y-intercept:
For this case x = 0
h (0) = (0)2 - 2 (0) - 8
h (0) = - 8
vertex:
We derive the equation:
h '(x) = x2 - 2x - 8
h (x) = 2x - 2
We match zero:
2x-2 = 0
x = 2/2
x = 1
We evaluate the function for x = 1
h (1) = (1)2 - 2 (1) - 8
h (1) = 1 - 2 - 8
h (1) = -9
The vertex is:
(1, -9)
axis of symmetry of the function:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
hope it helps
I don't get it, answer what???
Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolating the variable
