Answer:
x = - 3 ±
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x² + 24x = 4 ( divide through by 4 )
x² + 6x = 1
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 1 + 9
(x + 3)² = 10 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ± ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ±
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.
