First let's get the vertex of the function

( \frac{-b}{2a},f( \frac{-b}{2a}))

(-1,25) is the vertex

so the maximum height is 25 feet

Examine this system of linear<br> equations.<br> y – 3x=-2,<br> y = 4
Verdich [7]

Answer:

2, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so for this you have to substitute. y=4 so you put a 4 where the y is. This becomes

4 - 3x = -2 We can already rule out (2,2) and (4,2) Why? Because the y is not a 4. So it’s gonna be either (0,4) or (2,4). Now, we have to find x. We have to isolate it. You do this by subtracting 4 from both sides.

4 - 4 - 3x = -2 - 4 Now Simplify

-3x = -6 Why -6? Because you can’t subtract a positive from a negative so it becomes -2 + -4. Since they are both negatives, you just add them together, then put the negative sign.

Now divide -3 from both sides. Which becomes

x = 2

Given h of x equals negative 2 times the square root of x minus 3 end root, which of the following statements describes h(x)?
Yuliya22 [10]

Using translation concepts, it is found that the correct option regarding the function is:

The function h(x) is decreasing on the interval (3, ∞).

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.

The parent function is given by:

f(x) = \sqrt{x}

Which increases on (0, ∞).

The translated function is given by:

g(x) = -2\sqrt{x - 3}

With the translation, the domain is now (-3, ∞), and the function is decreasing, hence the correct option is given by:

The function h(x) is decreasing on the interval (3, ∞).
