Answer:
- 7
Step-by-step explanation:
6(- x - 3) = 24
-6x - 18 = 24
-6x = 24 + 18
-6x = 42
x = 42 ÷ - 6
x = - 7
Answer:
1.256, 1.265, and 1.268
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D. Minimum at (3, 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can add and subtract the square of half the x-coefficient:
y = x^2 -6x +(-6/2)^2 +16 -(-6/2)^2
y = (x -3)^2 +7 . . . . . simplify to vertex form
Comparing this to the vertex for for vertex (h, k) ...
y = (x -h)^2 +k
We find the vertex to be ...
(3, 7) . . . . vertex
The coefficient of x^2 is positive (+1), so the parabola opens upward and the vertex is a minimum.
