If the axis of symmetry is x=-1, the vertex will have x-coordinate -1.
The point (0, 5) cannot be the vertex. The friend is not correct.
_____
If the point (1, 5) is on the graph so is the image of that point when it is reflected across the axis of symmetry. That image point is (-3, 5). A parabola that goes through points (1, 5) and (-3, 5) will not go through point (0, 5).
Answer:
20 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure shows a triangle whose;
- Base AC is 8 units
- Height is 5 units
We are supposed to get its area;
Area of a triangle is given by the formula;
Area = 0.5×b×h
Thus;
Area = 0.5 × 8 units × 5 units
= 20 square units
Hence, the area of the figure is 20 square units
An example of the difference of squares would be: a^2-b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)
X = -2.5 because:
-7.6+5.1= -2.5
