Question 148668: Find vertex of quadratic function. f(x)=x^2 - 12x+6
(x squared minus 12x plus 6)
Here is what I have so far:
step one: y=x^2 -12x+6
step two: y-6=x^2 - 12x
Not sure where to go after this!
Thanks!

Question 148715: Give vertex and axis of symmetry for f(x) = x ^2 + 2
(f(x)= x squared plus two
Not sure if the vertex should be (0,2) OR (0,-2) axis is 0.
I solved it by using the formula -b / 2a and then I substituted using the equation a^2 + bx +c.
thanks!

Question 148713: Solve inequality x-6 / x+5 < 0 and graph.
(x minus six divided by x plus five is less than zero.)
I solved the problem but I am not sure which way should be shaded, if that makes any sense.
Solution: (-5, 6)
Just not sure how to shade. (-infin., -5)(6, infinit.) or (-5, 6)

Question 148714: Solve 3 / x-6 < 1 and graph on number line.
(Three divided by x minus six is less than 1)
I obtained the solution set of (6, 9) but I am unsure how to graph and if I should include infinity signs or...I am lost on how to shade.

Question 149338: Suppose a function "f" is defined on an interval around x=c, but possibly not at the point x=c itself. Suppose that as x becomes sufficiently close to c, f(x) becomes as close to a single number "L" as we please. We then say that limit of f(x) as x approches c is "L", and we write
lim f(x)=L
x -> c
apply this definition to the function from above to find lim f(x)
x->2
use the graph to find lim g(x), where g is defined as g(x)= {1, x dose not = 2}
{0, x=2 }

Question 150300: The force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies jointly as the weight of the car and the square of the car's speed, and inversely as the radius of the curve. If a force of 3600 pounds is needed to keep an 1800 pound car traveling at 20 mph from skidding on a curve of radius 600 feet what force would be required to keep the same car from skidding on a curve of radius 570 feet at 50 mph? Round your answer to the nearest pound of force?
I don't know the formular for this one and thus don't know how to solve it.

Question 150310: If an object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 64 ft/sec, its height after t sec is given by h = 64t - 16t2. Find the number of seconds the object is in the air before it hits the ground.
I figure that it would work with d=rt but I don't know how to convert it to this assignment. what throws me off is the h=64t-16t2...
