The function f is given by f(x) = (x + 3)^2 - 1. 1) Write the coordinates of the vertex of the graph of f.
2) Does the graph open up or down? How do you know?

the coordinate of the vertex is going to be (-3,-1) and it's concave up

Step-by-step explanation:

1.notice this function is in graphing form (x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is your coordinate of the vertex, hence in this problem it's going to be (-3,-1)

2. notice that this function have a parent function of x^2, where it's a parabola that is concave up which in this case is basiclly the same shape it's also concave up

In calculus, we can proof it by finding the first derivatives and find the critical points, then take the second derivative at that critical points to see if that's negative or positive in this case it's positive

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

0.84 dang lotta people are looking for this lol or if you round up its 1 but the overall answer to that is 0.84
