You have shared the situation (problem), except for the directions: What are you supposed to do here? I can only make a educated guesses. See below:
Note that if <span>ax^2+bx+5=0 then it appears that c = 5 (a rational number).
Note that for simplicity's sake, we need to assume that the "two distinct zeros" are real numbers, not imaginary or complex numbers. If this is the case, then the discriminant, b^2 - 4(a)(c), must be positive. Since c = 5,
b^2 - 4(a)(5) > 0, or b^2 - 20a > 0.
Note that if the quadratic has two distinct zeros, which we'll call "d" and "e," then
(x-d) and (x-e) are factors of ax^2 + bx + 5 = 0, and that because of this fact,
- b plus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
d = ------------------------------------
2a
and
</span> - b minus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
e = ------------------------------------
2a
Some (or perhaps all) of these facts may help us find the values of "a" and "b." Before going into that, however, I'm asking you to share the rest of the problem statement. What, specificallyi, were you asked to do here?
Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.
Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
h = −16(x − 2)² + 72
= −16((x − 2)(x − 2)) + 72 expand the square (x - 2)² = (x - 2)(x - x)
= -16 ((x)(x) + (x)(-2) + (-2)(x) + (-2)(-2)) + 72
= -16 (x² + (-2x) + (-2x) + (4) ) + 72
= -16 (x² + (-4x) + (4) ) + 72
= -16 (x² - 4x + 4 ) + 72
= (-16)(x²) + (-16)(-4x) +(-16)(4) + 72
= -16x² + 64x - 64 + 72
= -16x² + 64x + 8 My guess is D ; 72 ???
I have no clue what the ; 72 means after the given answer. It must be a standard form thing I never learned.
