Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your y= -x2 -10x +1 should be written as y = -x^2 -10x +1.  This is a quadratic function.  Because the coefficient (-1) of the x^2 term is negative, we know immediately that the graph (a parabola) opens down, and thus has a maximum.

loris [4]

Answer: Assume c = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume c = 0

Using the formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex, b can be calculated in terms of a:

B can then be substituted into the quadratic equation, along with the coordinates of the vertex, to solve a:

AND

Substituting into the quadratic equation:

Because a is negative, the parabola opens up.

What is the answer to the equation (x-5)^2=40
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

x^2 -10x - 15 = 0

(don't know how far you want me to go)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 5)^2 = 40

(expand the brackets)

(x - 5)(x - 5) = 40

x^2 -5x -5x + 25 = 40

x^2 -10x + 25 = 40

x^2 -10x - 15 = 0
