Question 1 (5 points) Find the vertex of the graph of the quadratic function and determine whether it's an
absolute maximum or an absolute minimum: y=-2x2 - 8x - 16.
OA) Vertex:(-8,-2); minimum
B) Vertex:(-8,-2); maximum
C) Vertex: (-2,-8); minimum
OD) Vertex: (-2,-8); maximum

D) Vertex: (-2,-8); maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x² - 8x - 16

The negative on the first term tells us that the vertex will be a maximum

vertex occurs when the derivative is set to zero

y' = -4x - 8

0 = -4x - 8

8 = -4x

x = -2

y = -2(-2)² - 8(-2) - 16

y = -8 + 16 - 16 = -8

step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.
