The correct question is
<span>What are the vertex and x-intercepts of the graph of the function given below?
y = x</span>²<span>-2x-35
step 1
convert the equation in the vertex form
y+35=x</span>²-2x
y+35=(x²-2x+1-1)
y+35+1=(x²-2x+1)
y+36=(x-1)²------> equation in the vertex form
the vertex is the point (1,-36)
the answer Part a) is
the vertex is the point (1,-36)
Part b) Find the x-intercepts
we know that
the x-intercepts is when y=0
so
y+36=(x-1)²
for y=0
(x-1)²=36
(+/-)(x-1)=√36-------> (+/-)(x-1)=6
(+)(x-1)=6------> x=6+1-----> x=7
(-)(x-1)=6-----> x=1-6-----> x=-5
the x-intercepts are the points
(7,0) and (-5,0)
the answer part b) is
the x-intercepts are the points (7,0) and (-5,0)
the total answer is the option
<span>A. Vertex: (1, -36); x-intercepts: (7, 0) and (-5, 0)</span>
Perimeter is the lengths of the edges added up. And if the shape is a rectangle, there are 4 edges so we divide by 4. 44/4=11. each of the four sides are 11 feet long.
width=11
length=11
area=width*length=121
