Answer:

Vertex is (-4, -18)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = ax^{2} +bx +c

Let (h, k) be the vertex

An easy way to find h is to use the formula h = -b/2a

In your case where f(x) = x^{2} +8x - 2   a = 2 and b = 8

So, h =  -8/2(1) = -8/2 = -4

Substitue -4 in for x to find k

k = (-4^{2}) + 8(-4) - 2

  = (16) - 32 - 2

  = 16 - 32 - 2

  = -18

Vertex is (-4, -18)

Note:  Another way to find the vertex is to complete the square, but this can really be difficult in some cases

Answer:

x ≈ 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine rule in the triangle, then

\frac{sin34}{x} = \frac{sin27}{11} ( cross- multiply )

x × sin27° = 11 × sin34° ( divide both sides by sin27° )

x = \frac{11sin34}{sin27} ≈ 13.5 ( to the nearest tenth )
