Point Q is the center of dilation. Line segment L M is dilated to created line segment L prime M prime. The length of L Q is 4 and the length of Q M is 3. The length of L L prime is 4. Line segment LM is dilated to create L'M' using point Q as the center of dilation and a scale factor of 2. What is the length of segment QM'?

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

do you mean add both of the equations together

because if you do the answer is 10x-5
