f(x) has vertex = (- 1, - 5 ) and is a minimum
g(x) has vertex = (2, 3 ) and is a maximum
the equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
f(x) = (x + 1)² - 5 is in this form with vertex = (- 1, - 5 ) and minimum
to determine if maximum/ minimum
• if a > 0 then minimum
• if a < 0 then maximum
g(x) = - (x - 2)² + 3 is also in vertex form with a < 0
vertex = (2, 3 ) and is a maximum
Answer:
x = -1 or 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the antilog, you have the quadratic ...
x^2 -x -1 = 1
x^2 -x -2 = 0 . . . . subtract 1
(x -2)(x +1) = 0 . . . factor
The values of x that make these factors zero are the solutions to the equation.
x = 2 or x = -1
