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.

(-5, 4)

You can get this by finding the vertex at -b/2a for x value and plugging in to find the y value.

P(x) = x + 1x² – 34x + 343<br> d(x)= x + 9
Feliz [49]

Answer:

x=\frac{9}{d-1},\:P=\frac{-297d+378}{\left(d-1\right)^2}+343

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us start by isolating x for dx = x + 9.

dx - x = x + 9 - x > dx - x = 9.

Factor out the common term of x > x(d - 1) = 9.

Now divide both sides by d - 1 > \frac{x\left(d-1\right)}{d-1}=\frac{9}{d-1};\quad \:d\ne \:1. Go ahead and simplify.

x=\frac{9}{d-1};\quad \:d\ne \:1.

Now, \mathrm{For\:}P=x+1x^2-34x+343, \mathrm{Subsititute\:}x=\frac{9}{d-1}.

P=\frac{9}{d-1}+1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2-34\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}+343.

Group the like terms... 1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2+\frac{9}{d-1}-34\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}+343.

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:\frac{9}{d-1}-34\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}=-33\cdot \frac{9}{d-1} > 1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2-33\cdot \frac{9}{d-1}+343.

Now for 1\cdot \left(\frac{9}{d-1}\right)^2 > \mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}: \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^c=\frac{a^c}{b^c} > \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2} = 1\cdot \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}.

\mathrm{Multiply:}\:1\cdot \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}=\frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}.

Now for 33\cdot \frac{9}{d-1} > \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}: \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c} > \frac{9\cdot \:33}{d-1} > \frac{297}{d-1}.

Thus we then get \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}-\frac{297}{d-1}+343.

Now we want to combine fractions. \frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}-\frac{297}{d-1}.

\mathrm{Compute\:an\:expression\:comprised\:of\:factors\:that\:appear\:either\:in\:}\left(d-1\right)^2\mathrm{\:or\:}d-1 > This\: is \:the\:LCM > \left(d-1\right)^2

\mathrm{For}\:\frac{297}{d-1}:\:\mathrm{multiply\:the\:denominator\:and\:numerator\:by\:}\:d-1 > \frac{297}{d-1}=\frac{297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)\left(d-1\right)}=\frac{297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2}

\frac{9^2}{\left(d-1\right)^2}-\frac{297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2} > \mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}> \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}

\frac{9^2-297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2} > 9^2=81 > \frac{81-297\left(d-1\right)}{\left(d-1\right)^2}.

Expand 81-297\left(d-1\right) > -297\left(d-1\right) > \mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}: \:a\left(b-c\right)=ab-ac.

-297d-\left(-297\right)\cdot \:1 > \mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules} > -\left(-a\right)=a > -297d+297\cdot \:1.

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:297\cdot \:1=297 > -297d+297 > 81-297d+297 > \mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:81+297=378 > -297d+378 > \frac{-297d+378}{\left(d-1\right)^2}

Therefore P=\frac{-297d+378}{\left(d-1\right)^2}+343.

Hope this helps!
