Answer:

The coordinates of the turning point are (2, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the turning points of the quadratic equation

y = ax² + bx + c, are (h, k), where

  • h = \frac{-b}{2a}
  • k is the value of y at x = h

∵ The equation of the curve is y = x² + bx + c

→ By comparing it with the form above

∴ a = 1

∵ The point (0, -5) lies on the curve

→ Substitute x by 0 and y by -5 in the equation to find the value f c

∵ -5 = (0)² + b(0) + c

∴ -5 = 0 + 0 + c

∴ -5 = c

→ Substitute it in the equatin

∴ y = x² + bx - 5

∵ The point (5, 0) lies on the curve

→ Substitute x by 5 and y by 0 in the equation to find the value f c

∵ 0 = (5)² + b(5) - 5

∴ 0 = 25 + 5b - 5

→ Add the like terms in the right side

∴ 0 = 20 + 5b

→ Subtract 5b from bth sides

∵ 0 - 5b = 20 + 5b - 5b

∴ -5b = 20

→ Divide both sides by -5 to find b

∴ b = -4

→ Substitute it in the equatin

∴ y = x² - 4x - 5

∵ a = 1 and b = -4

→ Substitute them in the rule of h above t find it

∵ h = \frac{-(-4)}{2(1)} = \frac{4}{2}

∴ h = 2

→ To find k, substitute x by 2 and y by k

∵ k = (2)² - 4(2) - 5

∴ k = 4 - 8 - 5

∴ k = -9

∴ The cordinates of the turning point are (2, -9)

2.5 = 2 5/10 as a Mixed fraction

To get a improper fraction, multiply the whole number with the denominator, and then add the numerator to the answer, giving the numerator (keep the denominator number)

2 x 10 = 20
20 + 5 = 25

25/10 is your answer

Two buses leave towns 520 kilometers apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One bus travels 16 km/h slower than th
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

122 km/h

138 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = speed * time

One bus travels 16 km/h slower than the other

(s * 2)  + (s - 16)2 = 520

2s + 2s - 32 = 520

4s = 552

s = 552/4

s = 138 km/h

s - 16 = 122 km/h
