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.

Answer:

DB = CA (Proved)

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1.

∠D = ∠C, M is the midpoint of DC and ∠1 = ∠2

Reason 1.  

Given

Statement 2.

Between Δ DBM and Δ CAM,  

(i) DM = CM,

(ii) ∠D = ∠C  and  

(iii) ∠DMB = ∠CMA

Reason 2.

(i) given  

(ii) given and  

(iii) ∠ DMB = ∠1 + ∠AMB and  ∠CMA = ∠2 + ∠AMB

Since ∠1 = ∠2, so, ∠DMB = ∠CMA.

Statement 3.

Δ DBM ≅ Δ CAM

Reason 3.

By angle-side-angle rule.

Statement 4.

DB = CA

Reason 4.

Corresponding sides of two congruent triangles. (Answer)

<h3>Solution :</h3>

\sf \dfrac{6x+4}{3} = \dfrac{5x-5}{8}

By cross multiply, we get

\sf : \implies (6x+4) \times 8 = (5x-5) \times 3

\sf : \implies 48x+32 = 15x-15

\sf : \implies 48x+32 - 15x + 15= 0

\sf : \implies 33x + 47 = 0

\sf : \implies 33x = -47

\sf : \implies x = \dfrac{- 47}{33}

Therefore, answer is \sf x = \dfrac{- 47}{33}
