Given: y=x^2-4x-12 A.) determine the roots/zero
(By factoring & setting the answer equal to zero)

B.) use h=-b/2a to get vertex

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x^2-4x-12

Set equal to 0 to find the zeros

0 =x^2-4x-12

Factor.  What 2 numbers multiply to -12 and add to -4

-6*2 = -12  

-6+2 = -4

0= (x-6) (x+2)

Using the zero product property

0=x-6         0 = x+2

x=6            x = -2

zeros: -2,6

Vertex

h = -b/2a = - (-4)/ 2(1) = 4/2 = 2

OR  Average the roots  (-2+6)/2 = 4/2 =2

The y coordinate is found by substituting into the equation

y = (2)^2 -4(2) -12

y = 4-8-12

y =-16

vertex : (2, -16)

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

x = -2, 6

Vertex: (2,-16)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 4x - 12

x² - 6x + 2x - 12

x(x - 6) + 2(x - 6)

(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0

x = -2, 6

h = -(-4)/2

h = 4/2

h = 2

k = 2² - 4(2) - 12

k = 4 - 8 - 12

k = -16

Vertex: (2,-16)

What are a ratio and proportions?

An ordered pair of numbers a and b, represented as a / b, is a ratio if b is not equal to 0. A proportion is an equation that sets two ratios at the same value.

In mathematics, ratios are used to determine the relationship between two numbers it indicates how many times is one number to another number.

It is given that 8 friends share 6 sandwiches equally. The fraction will be calculated as below:-

Fraction = 6/8

Divide the number 6 by 8.

Fraction = 3/4

Therefore, the fraction of a sandwich each friend get is 3 / 4.

What is the median of this data? 48, 60, 22, 84, 36

Answers

He is wrong. You first need to put it in order before getting the middle. Like so:
22, 36, 48, 60, 84
Now cross out 22, then 84, and so on till you're left with one number (the middle number)

THE ANSWER IS 48
22 because the median is just the middle number of a set of data
