Answer:

a = 2

y = 2(x-3) ^ 2 +6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic equation in vertex form:

y = a(x-h) ^ 2 + k

Where x = h is the vertex of the parabola.

They give us the vertice:

(3, 6)

So:

h = 3\\k = 6

Therefore the equation is of the form:

y = a(x-3) ^ 2 +6

Now we need to find the value of a.

We have another point that belongs to the equation: (4, 8)

Then we substitute the values in the equation and clear a.

8 = a(4-3) ^ 2 +6\\\\8 - 6 = a\\\\a = 2.

Finally the equation is:

y = 2(x-3) ^ 2 +6

Answer:

a = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form y = a(x - h)^2 + k

Where (h, k) is the vertex.

Given: (h, k) = (3, 6) and point (4, 8)

Now plug in the given values and find the value of "a"

x =4 and y = 8

8 = a(4 - 3)^2 + 6

8 = a(1)^2 + 6

8 = a + 6

a = 8 - 6

a = 2

So the value of a = 2.

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

1. Change x = 4t into x = 3t

4t\cdot\frac{3}{4}=3t so

y=(\frac{3}{4}t)^2-1=\frac{9}{16}t^2-1

Answer A and D are wrong.

2. Change x = 4t into x = 2t

4t\cdot\frac{1}{2}=2t and

y=(\frac{1}{2}t)^2-1=\frac{t^2}{4}-1

Answer b is correct.

3.  Change x = 4t into x = 8t

4t\cdot2=8t and

y=(2t)^2-1=4t^2-1

Answer C. is correct, E. is wrong.
