Find the vertex of this parabola: y = -x2 + 6x – 15

Mathematics

Orlov [11]2 years ago

y =  - x {}^{2}  + 6x - 15

y {}^{  \gamma  }  =  - 2x + 6

y {}^{ \gamma }  = 0

- 2x + 6 = 0

- 2x =  - 6

2x = 6

x = 3

<h3>Substitute x=3 in y=-x²+6x-15</h3>

y =  - (3) {}^{2}  + 6(3) - 15

y =  - 9 + 18 - 15

y =  - 9 + 3

y =  - 6

<h3>hello!</h3>

==============================

In order to find the vertex of a parabola, we use the following formula:

\mathfrak{\displaystyle\frac{-b}{2a} }

Please remember that a parabola looks like this:

\tt{y=ax^2+bx+c}

Now you know what a and b stand for.

In this case, a = -1, and b is 6:

\mathfrak{\displaystyle\frac{-6}{2(-1)} }

Simplify:

\mathfrak{\displaystyle\frac{-6}{-2}}

\mathfrak{3}\\=======================================

The current in a stream moves at a speed of 4 mph. A boat travels 5 miles upstream and 13 miles downstream in a total time of 2
Dimas [21]
I believe it is 4.5mph because traveling upstream and the stream moves at a speed of 4mph would knock off 4 of the original number so if you add 4miles to the given 5 miles you get 9

The same is with the boat going downstream it is adding 4 miles to the original number so you subtract 13 and 4 and you get 9

If it took 2 hours to do that then you divide 9 by 2 and get 4.5

Ally collects stickers as a hobby. She gives her sisters of her stickers.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

\frac{16}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

Ally gives her sister = 1/5 stickers

Ally gives her cousin = 1/5 of the remainder stickers

Assume Number of sticker Ali has = 1

Remainder after giving stickers to her sister = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5

Number of stickers she gave her sister = \frac{1}{5}\times\frac{4}{5}

         =\frac{4}{25}

Sticker she has = 1-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{4}{25}

=\frac{25-5-4}{25}

=\frac{16}{25}

Sticker left with Ally is equal to \frac{16}{25}.

A group of hikers walked 2 1/4 km in 3/4 hour.The distance here varies directly with time. What is the constant of variation?
telo118 [61]

The distance depends on the time.

So now we need to find the constant of variation or the constant of proportionality.

To do so we must find y(the dependent variable) and x(the independent variable).

To find the constant(k) we must find y/x

Since y/x=k

Then 2.25/.75=k

k=3
