Hey there!
- Answer :
- Explanation :
We are given the points . To find the slope
of such a line, we use the slope formula which is the following:
⇢Now, by plugging in our values, we get :
Therefore, the slope of the line is
- Put brackets around the first two terms on the right. y = (-4x^2 - 16x) - 14
- Pull out the common factor in the first two terms. y = -4(x^2 + 4x) - 14
- Divide the middle term by 2. Add that inside the brackets. square y = -4(x^2 +4x +(4/2)^2 - 14
- y = -4(x^2 + 4x + 4) - 14 + 16 This is the step where most people stumble. The point is why is 16 added? It is because what you have done inside the brackets is multiplied 4 by - 4 (on the left). That means you have changed the equation by -16. To counter that, you must add 16 after the - 14. The result is y= -4(x^2 + 4x+4) + 2
- Express the terms inside the brackets as a square. y = - 4(x + 2)^2 + 2
B and D are both wrong. B has +4 outside the brackets. It is - 4
D is wrong because there is no 4 of any kind outside the brackets.
A is incorrectly represented inside the brackets as 16. That's not right
That only leaves C. <<<< Answer
Graphs
Notice that the red parabola and the green one are the same thing.
Red: y = -4x^2 - 16x - 14
Green: y = -4(x + 2)^2 + 2
