Answer:

-8x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You need to distribute the (-1) from outside the bracket onto all the terms in the bracket, which includes (8x) and (-12). If there is a minus outside the bracket and one minus in the bracket, the operation would be a plus and vice versa. If there is a minus outside the bracket and one plus in the bracket, the operation would be a minus and vice versa.

- (8x - 12) = (-1) × (8x) + (-1) × (-12)

= -8x + (+12)

= -8x + 12

Answer:

Part 1) "a" value is $2$

Part 2) The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

Part 3) The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

Part 4) The vertex is a minimum

Part 5) The quadratic equation in standard form is $y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

$y=a(x-h)^{2}+k$

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

if a > 0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

if a < 0 then the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The equation of the axis of symmetry of a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

so

$x=h$

In this problem we have

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$ -----> this is the equation in vertex form of a vertical parabola

The value of $a=2$

so

a>0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

so

$(h,k)=(1,8)$

The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

The equation of a vertical parabola in standard form is equal to

$y=ax^{2}+bx+c$

Convert vertex form in standard form

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$

$y=2(x^{2}-2x+1)+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+2+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Find the perimeter of a triangle 20cm and 29cm

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Unclear.

To find the perimeter you need all three sides of the triangle. You have only given two.

All you need to do is add up all three sides and you have your perimeter.

Formula: <u>P=a+b+c</u>
