To write algebraically
following expressions:
the
1. Double an X number.
2. Triple an X number.
3. Double a number x plus 5.
4. The square of the triple of a
number x.
5. Three-quarters of a
number x.

1. 2x

2. 3x

3. 2x+5

4. (3x)^2

5. 3\4(x)

I hope it makes sense

have a great day

if any questions pls ask

if the eqn of the parabola is f(x) = (x-4)(x+2), we need to mult. this out to find the coordinates of the vertex.

then f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8, and f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8.

one way in which you can find the vertex is to calculate x = -b / (2a).   here, that comes to

        )

x = = 1.   f(1) = 1^2 - 2(1) - 8 = - 9.   vertex is at (1, -9).

        2(1) 

find another point on the curve:   let x=0, for which y=-8.   then (0, -8) is on the curve.   plot the vertex and this point and draw a smooth parabola thru both.

hope this
