Vertex form of a parabola
<span>y = a (x - h)^2 + k </span>
<span>where (h, k) is the vertex </span>
Substituting the values of h and k.
we get,
<span>y = a(x + 4)^2 + 2 </span>
<span>substituting in the point (0, -30) for x and y
</span><span>-30 = a (0 + 4)^2 + 2
</span>solve for a,
<span>-30 = 16 a + 2 </span>
<span>-32 = 16 a </span>
<span>-2 = a </span>
<span>y = -2(x + 4)^2 + 2 </span>
<span>Put y = 0 </span>
<span>-2 x^2 - 16 x - 30 = 0 </span>
<span>-2(x^2 + 8 x + 15) = 0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 8 x + 15 = 0 </span>
<span>(x + 3)(x + 5) = 0 </span>
<span>x = -3
x = -5</span>
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
54/12=4.5 then move the decimal once
K = Kevin's age
D = Daniel's age
K = 3D
K - 4 = 5(D - 4)
Plug in 3D for the K values in the second equation.
3D - 4 = 5(D - 4) Use the Distributive Property
3D - 4 = 5D - 20 Add 4 to both sides
3D = 5D - 16 Subtract 5D from both sides
-2D = -16 Divide both sides by -2
D = 8
Now, plug that D value into the original equation.
K = 3D Plug in the D value
K = 3(8) Multiply
K = 24
Finally, you can double check your math.
4 years ago, Daniel would've been 4 and Kevin would be 20, so Kevin would've been 5 times as old as Daniel. And 8 x 3 = 24.
So, Kevin is 24.
Answer:
So you pretty much just solved your math by yourself :)
