I got 21/4 hope this helps
Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-1 - 17)/(-8 - (-10)) = -18/(-8 + 10) = -18/2 = -9
To do these, start by looking at the "b" value -6.
divide it by 2
-6/2 = -3
now square this number
(-3)^2 = 9
this is what you need for the "c" value
there is only a 5 for the c value so add 4 to both sides of the equation. ( +4 = +4)
y +4 = x^2 -6x +5 +4
y +4 = x^2 -6x +9
y +4 = (x -3)^2
y = (x -3)^2 - 4
vertex ( 3, -4) upwards facing like a bowl, because the "a" value is positive. So the vertex is the minimum, lowest point on the graph.
Answer:
4 + ( -7 X 2 ) = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Check work:
-7 times 2 is -14.
4 + -14 = -10
