The vertex form:

The axis of symetry is x = h.

We have

Substitute:

<h3>Answer: x = 3</h3>
Given the quadratic function, to get the roots we factorize:
3x²-4x-7=0
3x²+3x-7x-7=0
3x(x+1)-7(x+1)=0
(3x-7)(x+1)=0
thus the roots are
x=-1 or x=3/7
thus the sum of the roots will be:
-1+3/7
=-4/7
Parallel lines have the same slope
Y = -8x + 8
The slope will be -8
Therefore: y = -8x + b
Plug in the point
7 = -8(9) + b
7 = -72 + b, b = 79
Solution: y = -8x + 79
The opposite of -3.4 would be positive 3.4
