Answer:

f(x) = -1(x+1)² + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -x² - 2x + 8

This is a down-opening parabola. Put the equation into vertex form. The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum.

factor out the leading coefficient

f(x) = -1(x²+2x) + 8

Complete the square

 coefficient of x term: 2

 divide in half: 1

 square it: 1²

 use 1² to complete the square:

f(x) = -1(x²+2x+1²) + 1² + 8

f(x) = -1(x+1)² + 9

vertex (-1,9)

maximum value of f(x) = 9

Ugo [173]

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is calculated as

Question
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: r = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the point (-2, r) lies on the graph of:

2*x + y = 7.

Then, if we that point is on the graph of the equation, we can replace the values and we will have:

2*(-2) + r = 7

and now we solve this for r-

-4 + r = 7

r = 7 + 4 = 11

r = 11

In 1997 there were 31 laptop computers at Grove High School. Starting in 1998 the school bought 20 more laptop computers at the
Kruka [31]

Using the linear equation, T = 20x + 31, the total number of computers at the end of 2005 is: C. 191.

<h3>How to Use a Linear Equation?</h3>

A linear equation is expressed as y = mx + b, where x is a function of y, m is the rate of change and b is the y-intercept or starting value.

In the scenario stated, we are given the linear equation for total number of laptop computers at the school after 1997 as, T = 20x + 31.

Rate of change = 20

y-intercept/starting value = 31

x = 2005 - 1997 = 8

To find the total number of laptop computers at Grove High School at the end of 2005 (T), substitute x = 8 into the equation, T = 20x + 31.

T = 20(8) + 31

T = 160 + 31

T = 191 computers.

Thus, total number of computers at the end of 2005 is: C. 191.
