Notice that the coefficient of x is 0, this always means that the axis of symmetry is the y-axis.
That is, the vertex of the parabola is in the y-axis, so the x-coordinate of the vertex is 0.
for x=0, y=-1. So the vertex is (0, -1)
The coefficient of
Answer: (0, -1) , maximum (none of the choices)
<h2>Answer: y = - ¹/₂ x OR y - 1 = - ¹/₂ (x + 2) </h2><h3>Step-by-step explanation: </h3>
For us to write the equation for this line, we need to (1) find the slope of the line, and (2) use one of the points to write an equation:
The question gives us two points, (-2, 1) and (-8, 4), from which we can find the slope and later the equation of the line.
<u>Finding the Slope </u>
The slope of the line (m) = (y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)
= (4 - 1) ÷ (-8 - (-2))
= - ¹/₂
<u>Finding the Equation</u>
We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:
⇒ y - 1 = - ¹/₂ (x - (-2))
∴ y - 1 = - ¹/₂ (x + 2)
we could also transform this into the slope-intercept form ( y = mx + c)
since y - 1 = - ¹/₂ (x + 2)
⇒ y = - ¹/₂ x
