We have been given graph of a downward opening parabola with vertex at point
. We are asked to write equation of the parabola in standard form.
We know that equation of parabola in standard form is
.
We will write our equation in vertex form and then convert it into standard form.
Vertex for of parabola is
, 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:




Divide both sides by 
So our equation in vertex form would be
.
Let us convert it in standard from.



Therefore, the equation of function is standard form would be
.
The company picnic cost $ 1300 for 80 employees
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that cost of a company picnic varies directly as the number of employees attending the picnic
Let "c" be the company picnic cost
Let "n" be the number of employees attending the picnic
Therefore,


Where "k" is the constant of proportionality
c = kn ---------- eqn 1
<em><u>Given that company picnic costs $487.50 for 30 employees</u></em>
Therefore substitute c = 487.50 and n = 30

<em><u>How much does a company picnic cost for 80 employees?</u></em>
Substitute n = 80 and k = 16.25 in eqn 1

Thus $ 1300 is the cost for 80 employees
Answer:
first do:
60mph * 4 hours= 240mi
Let D = the distance the passenger train has to
travel to catch the freight train
Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves
Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet
Equation for freight train:
d-240=60t
Equation for passenger train:
d=100t
all together:
100t-240=60t
we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t
40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6
THEN do:
D= 100mph x 6= 600mi
They will meet 600 mi from the station
to check:
d-240=60t x 6
600-240= 360
60 x 6= 360
360=360
