Answer:

Vertex form: f(x) = – (x – 3)² – 1  

vertex: (3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function, f(x) = -x²+ 6x -10:

where a = -1, b = 6, and c = -10

The vertex of a parabola is the point at which the parabola intersects the axis of symmetry. The <u>axis of symmtery</u> occurs at x = h. Therefore, the x-coordinate of the vertex is the same as <em>h. </em>

To find the vertex, (<em>h</em>, <em>k</em>), you need to solve for <em>h </em>by using the formula:  h = \frac{-b}{2a}

Plug in the values into the formula:

h = \frac{-b}{2a}

h = \frac{-6}{2(-1)} = 3

Therefore, h = 3.

Next, to find the <em>k</em><em>, </em>plug in the value of<em> </em><em>h</em> into the original equation:

f(x) = -x²+ 6x -10

f(x) = -(3)²+ 6(3) -10

f(x) = -1

Therefore, the value of h = -1.

The vertex = (3, -1).

Now that you have the value for the vertex, you can plug these values into the vertex form:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

<em>a</em> =  determines whether the graph opens up or down, and makes the parent function wider or narrower.

  • If <em>a</em> is positive, the graph opens <u>up</u>.
  • If<em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em>is negative, the graph opens <u>down</u>.

<em>h</em><em> </em>= determines how far left or right the parent function is translated.

<em>k</em> = determines how far up or down the parent function is translated.

Plug in the vertex, (3, -1) into the vertex form:

f(x) = – (x – 3)² – 1  

This parabola is downward-facing, with its vertex, (3, -1) as its maximum point on the graph.

Mike drank more than half the juice in his glass. what fraction of the juice could Mike have drunk?
maxonik [38]
He drank more than half of his drink... So we need to look for fractions greater than 1/2.

First, lets find equivalents of 1/2

\frac{1}{2}= \frac{2}{4} = \frac{3}{6}= \frac{4}{8}

If all of these fractions are equal to 1/2, then by adding to the numerator of these fractions, we'l have fractions greater than 1/2.

 2 +1 3
__= ___
 4      4

3/4 is greater than 1/2

Mike could have drunken 3/4 of the juice

4/6>1/2 Mike could have drunken 4/6 of the juice

5/8 is greater then 1/2 Mike could have drank 5/8 of the drink.

Answer=3/4, 4/6, 5/8 and many more possible fractions

Which of the following formulas would find the surface area of a right cylinder
Sliva [168]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the surface area is \pi r^2*2\pi rh

BA is the base, so BA + 2\pi rh also works.
