Answer:

Ok so this concept is kind of hard to explain, but basically the two equations are equal because you are adding 9/4 and then subtracting 9/4, so you just end up with 0. The reason you do that is so you can make the (x + 3/2)^2 part, which you wouldn't be able to do without the 9/4/

When changing something to Vertex form you have the, in this case, coefficient to 3x which is 3 then square it. So you half it to 3/2 then square the fraction which becomes 9/4. Because you are adding the 9/4 in order to make this a perfect square you have to subtract it on the outside too leaving you with the answer provided.

In short:

When changing to stand form you need to half and square the X term to get the x intercept.

Answer:

The answer is a). 5/24.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polygon is shown on the graph:
iren [92.7K]

so translation means that the points are moving on the graph

so the shape is moving down three then left two

it doesn’t change the shape in any way it just moves the shape

so all the sides and angles are the same

so the polygon is completely congruent with the premise and image since the shape didn’t change
