<u>Equation of the Quadratic Function</u>
The vertex form of the quadratic function has the following equation:

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola that graphically represents the function, and a is a coefficient different from zero.
The vertex of the required equation is located at (-6,-1)
The parabola passes through (-12,17)
Substituting the coordinates of the vertex, the equation of the function is:

The value of a will be determined by using the given point:

Operating:


Solving:

The equation of the parabola is:

Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure where a is supposed to be in this equation, but I'm going to assume it's supposed to be written as either 3a x 4b = 54, or 304b = 54a. If it's something else, let me know, but I'll just answer these two for now.
1. 3a x 4b
So we know that b is equal to 9. Therefore, we can rewrite

as

To get rid of a multiplier on one side, divide both sides by the number you want gone. I'll use 4(9), which equals 36.

Then we can divide by 3 to get

0.5 isn't a viable answer, so I'll try the second interpretation.
2. 304b = 54a
This one is a bit easier. All we need to do is divide both sides by 54 to get

304 x 9 = 2736
2736/54 = 50.66...
Again, not a viable answer. Please edit your question to include a and I'll give it another shot!
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 80% of Andrew's (former) baseball card collection is 60. Thus, We divide 60 by 80% (equal to 0.8) to obtain
