-12-9(t-3) = 78
Multiply -9 by t and -3 so:
-9(t-3)
-9t + 27
Now add that back to the equation:
-12 -9t +27 = 78
Now combine -12 and 27:
-12-9t +27 =78
15 -9t = 78
Since 15 is positive ( there is no - sign), we need to subtract 78 by 15:
15 -9t = 78
-15 -15
We subtracted and not added because the opposite of addition is subtraction. Now, we have:
-9t = 63
To find t, we need to divide -9t because we are trying to get t to be alone, so:
-9t = 63
————-
-9t -9t
So now, we have:
t= -7
We have a positive t because a negative divided by a negative is equal to a positive.
So, the answer is :
t = -7
Hope this helps, and would you please rank this brainiest?

Find the vertex of the parabola y= x^2-2x-1 vertex (?,?)

SpyIntel [72]

$y=ax^2+bx+c\\\\vertex:(x_v;\ y_v)\\\\x_v=\frac{-b}{2a}\ and\ y_v=f(x_v)$

$y=x^2-2x-1\\\\a=1;\ b=-2;\ c=-1\\\\x_v=\frac{-(-2)}{2\cdot1}=\frac{2}{2}=1\\\\y_v=1^2-2\cdot1-1=1-2-1=-2\\\\Answer:(1;-2)$

What is the vertex of a parabola having the equation y = –2(x – 5)2 + 7? Which direction does the parabola open?

Vika [28.1K]

$y = -2(x-5)^2 + 7$

That's vertex form for a parabola $y=a(x-p)^2+q$ and we read off vertex (p,q) as

Answer: Vertex (5,7)

The negative a tells us this is a downward opening parabola (upside down from the usual $y=x^2$ . I remember CUP - Concave Up Positive; here a is negative so not a cup, instead concave down. The same rule applies to second derivatives in calculus so memorize it now and use it later.

Answer: downward
