Where is the vertex of the parabola?

Mathematics
1 answer:
RideAnS [48]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

ABOVE the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Please use "^" to denote exponentiation:  y = x^2 + 2x + 3

To find the vertex, we must complete the square of y = x^2 + 2x + 3, so that we have an equivalent equation in the form f(x) = (x - h)^2 + k.

Starting with  y = x^2 + 2x + 3,

we identify the coefficient of x (which is 2), take half of that (which gives

us 1),  add 1 and then subtract 1, between "2x" and "3":

y = x^2 + 2x + 1 - 1 + 3

Now rewrite x^2 + 2x + 1 as (x + 1)^2:

y = (x + 1)^2 - 1 + 3, or y = (x + 1)^2 + 2.  Comparing this to f(x) = (x - h)^2 + k, we see that h = 1 and k = 2.  This tells us that the vertex of this parabola is at (h, k):  (1, 2), which is ABOVE the x-axis.

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
Inessa05 [86]

Look in the table at the column that has 1 minute and 4.25 pages. Printer A prints 4.25 pages in 1 minute which is a rate of 4.25 pages per minute. The rate of printing is the slope in the equation. A rate of 4.25 pages per minute is represented by the equation y = 4.25x, where 4.25 ids the slope of the equation.

We are told that Printer A prints faster than Printer B, so Printer B must have a lower rate of printing than Printer A. The equation for Printer B must have a slope less than 4.25.

There are two choices which have a slope less than than 4.25.

Answer: y = 4.2x; y = 4x

Why is 2 the only even prime number
Temka [501]

Answer:

<em>A prime number is a whole number greater than 1 whose only factors are 1 and itself</em>

two is the only even prime number because it is divisible by only two and one. All the other even numbers are not prime because they are all divisible by two.
