We have been given graph of a downward opening parabola with vertex at point $(6.5,42.25)$ . We are asked to write equation of the parabola in standard form.

We know that equation of parabola in standard form is $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ .

We will write our equation in vertex form and then convert it into standard form.

Vertex for of parabola is $y=a(x-h)^2+k$ , where point (h,k) represents vertex of parabola and a represents leading coefficient.

Since our parabola is downward opening so leading coefficient will be negative.

Upon substituting coordinates of vertex and point (0,0) in vertex form, we will get:

$0=-a(0-6.5)^2+42.25$

$0=-a(42.25)+42.25$

$-42.25=-a(42.25)+42.25-42.25$

$-42.25=-42.25a$

$a=1$ Divide both sides by $-42.25$

So our equation in vertex form would be $f(x)=-(x-6.5)^2+42.25$ .

Let us convert it in standard from.

$f(x)=-(x^2-13x+42.25)+42.25$

$f(x)=-x^2+13x-42.25+42.25$

$f(x)=-x^2+13x$

Therefore, the equation of function is standard form would be $f(x)=-x^2+13x$ .

frozen [14]

Answer:

11%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Fill out the table with the correct numbers.

2. After you fillout the numbers, you should notice that under the column car and in the first row, there should be the number 18.

3. We know the total number of students under the age of 15 is 165.

4. To find the percent:

18/165 * 100

= 11%

For six you can write 1/4 because there is 4 pennies and 1 represents each penny

for number 5 you can put 2/10 because there is 10 coins and 2 quarters

and for number 7 is that Bradley has 10 coins not 9 so it would be 1/10
