Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an geometric series.
Common ratio = second number÷ first number
To get the next number, 256 should be divide by (-4)
The three numbers are : -64 , 16 , -4
Answer
y = (1/4)x - 5 or 4y - x + 20 = 0
Explanation
To get the rule required, we interpret the sentence and write it in a mathematical form.
5 less than one fourth of x is y
one fourth of x ⇒ (1/4)x
5 less than one fourth of x is y ⇒ (1/4)x - 5 = y
y = (1/4)x - 5
4y = x - 20
4y - x + 20 = 0
Answer:
Vertex form
y = -4(x + 3)^2 + 10
Standard form;
y = -4x^2-24x - 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, we have the vertex form as
y = a(x-h)^2 + k
(h,k) represents the vertex
We have h as -3 and k as 10
y = a(x+3)^2 + 10
To get a, we substitute any of the points
Let us use (-1,-6)
-6 = a(-1+3)^2 + 10
-6-10 = 4a
4a = -16
a = -16/4
a = -4
So we have the equation as;
y = -4(x+3)^2 + 10
For the standard form;
We expand the vertex form;
y = -4(x + 3)(x + 3) + 10
y = -4(x^2 + 6x + 9) + 10
y = -4x^2 - 24x -36 + 10
y = -4x^2 -24x -26
