Consider 𝑔(𝑥)=−(𝑥+6) Identify the vertex.

Question

Complete the table.

x g(x)

-8

-7

-6

-5

-4

Answer 1

g(x) =-(x+6) = -x-6

x g(x)

-8 2

-7 1

-6 0

-5 -1

-4 -2

the y intercept = -6 or the point (0,-6)

the x intercept = -6 or the point (-6,0)

slope =-1

It's a straight line, downward sloping

there is no "vertex"
