A parabola is a quadratic function, and a quadratic can be expressed in vertex form, which is:
y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the vertex (absolute maximum or minimum point of the quadratic)
In this case we are given that (h,k) is (-5,80) so we have so far:
y=a(x--5)^2+80
y=a(x+5)^2+80, we are also told that it passes through the point (0,-45) so:
-45=a(0+5)^2+80
-45=25a+80 subtract 80 from both sides
-125=25a divide both sides by 25
-5=a, so now we know the complete vertex form is:
y=-5(x+5)^2+80
The x-intercepts occur when y=0 so:
0=-5(x+5)^2+80 add 5(x+5)^2 to both sides
5(x+5)^2=80 divide both sides by 5
(x+5)^2=16 take the square root of both sides
x+5=±√16 which is
x+5=±4 subtract 5 from both sides
x=-5±4 so the x-intercepts are:
x=-1 and -9
1/4 (6 + s)
One-fourth (1/4) of the sum (+) of: 6 and s (6 + s)
First you have to find a common denominator which would be 24.
5/6 = 20/24
7/8 = 21/24
5/8 = 15/24
So your final answer would be 7 over 8.
Answer:
I believe it is A
Step-by-step explanation:
I dont quite remember the formula, but I belive that 30 would be correct because if im remembering correctly the formulas are "a + b = c" and "c - (a/b) = (a/b)
a/b = a or b, depending what they give you
