Answer:
22.05
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest way to find the vertex is to convert this standard form equation into vertex form, which is y = a(x - h)^2 + k.
Firstly, put x^2 - 10x into parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x) + 30
Next, we want to make what's inside the parentheses a perfect square. To do that, we need to divide the x coefficient by 2 and square it. In this case, the result is 25. Add 25 inside the parentheses and subtract 25 outside of the parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x + 25) + 30 - 25
Next, factor what's inside the parentheses and combine like terms outside of the parentheses, and your vertex form is: y = (x - 5)^2 + 5.
Now going back to the formula of the vertex form, y = a(x - h)^2 + k, the vertex is (h,k). Using our vertex equation, we can see that the vertex is (5,5).
Answer:
4x + 17

10x+5-2(3x-6)
10x + 5-6x+12
Answer:
a. S = 3n + 2
b. There while be 62 squares.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the first term of this sequence is 5. To figure out the equation, subtract the following term from the previous. Do you see a common difference?
8 - 5 = 3
11 - 8 = 3
14 - 11 = 3
We're seeing a constant difference of 3 (which makes this an arithmetic sequence), but the first term is 5. That mean something is being added to make the first term 5. Subtract 3 from 5 to get 2. This means 2 is being added to every multiple of 3, which leads us to the equation: S = 3n + 2.
To find the 20th term of this sequence, substitute n for 20 and do the operations.
S = 3(20) + 2
<em>Multiply 3 by 20, then add 2.</em>
S = 62
The 20th term will have 62 squares.
