Answer:The rate of the slower hiker is 2.2 mph and the rate of the faster hiker is 5.5 mph

Explanation:

One hiker walks 3.3 mph faster than the other.

Suppose, the speed of the slower hiker is  mph.

So, the speed of the faster hiker will be:  

Both hikers are walking toward each other and meet in 10 hours.

We know that,  

So, the distance walked by the slower hiker in 10 hours  miles and the distance walked by the faster hiker in 10 hours

miles.

Given that, they were 77 miles apart in the beginning. So the equation will be

Which equation is y = 9x2 + 9x – 1 rewritten in vertex form?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

y = 9(x +\frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation in the vertex form is written as

y = a (x-h) + k

Where the point (h, k) is the vertex of the equation.

 

For an equation in the form ax ^ 2 + bx + c the x coordinate of the vertex is defined as

x = -\frac{b}{2a}

In this case we have the equation y = 9x^2 + 9x - 1.

Where

a = 9\\\\b = 9\\\\c = -1

Then the x coordinate of the vertex is:

x = -\frac{9}{2(9)}\\\\x = -\frac{9}{18}\\\\x = -\frac{1}{2}

The y coordinate of the vertex is replacing the value of x = -\frac{1}{2} in the function

y = 9 (-0.5) ^ 2 + 9 (-0.5) -1\\\\y = -\frac{13}{4}

Then the vertex is:

(-\frac{1}{2}, -\frac{13}{4})

Therefore The encuacion excrita in the form of vertice is:

y = a(x +\frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

To find the coefficient a we substitute a point that belongs to the function y = 9x^2 + 9x - 1

The point (0, -1) belongs to the function. Thus.

-1 = a(0 + \frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

-1 = a(\frac{1}{4}) -\frac{13}{4}\\\\a = \frac{-1 +\frac{13}{4}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\a = 9

<em>Then the written function in the form of vertice is</em>

y = 9(x +\frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}
