Get into form a(x-h)²+k

complete the square

-3x²-18x-31
group x terms
(-3x²-18x)-31
undistribute the -3
-3(x²+6x)-31
take 1/2 of the linear coefient (6) and squaer it
6/2=3, 3²=9
add positive and negative of it inside parenthasees
-3(x²+6x+9-9)-31
complete the square
-3((x+3)²-9)-31
expand
-3(x+3)²+27-31
-3(x+3)²-4 is vertex form

Consider the function y = -2-3cos (x+pi). What effect does the -2 have on the basic graph

Elenna [48]

ANSWER

-2 shift the graph of the basic function down by 2 units.

EXPLANATION

The given cosine function is:

$y = - 2 - 3 \cos(x + \pi)$

This equation can be rewritten as:

$y = - 3 \cos(x + \pi) + - 2$

We compare this to

$y = a \cos(bx + c) + d$

The effect d has on the graph is that, it shifts the graph up by d units.

If d is negative the graph shifts down by d units.

Since d=-2, the graph will shift down by 2 units.

The equation y – 9 + 9 = –17 + 9 is an example of which property of equality?

frutty [35]

You add 9 to both sides to get:
<span>y – 9 + 9 = –17 + 9
</span>
so it's <span>Addition Property of Equality
