2(x-2)=6 Multiply OUT brackets; 2 times X, 2 times -2 2x-4=6 The -4 goes to the other side, therefore becoming +4 2x=6+4 2x=10 The 2 is in its times form, by bringing it to the other side, it becomes a divide. x=10 divided by 2 x=5 to check, substitute 5 into the equation: 2(5-2)=6 2(3)=6 2*3=6

Write the equation of a parabola having the vertex (1, −2) and containing the point (3, 6) in vertex form. Then, rewrite the equ

In-s [12.5K]

PART A

The equation of the parabola in vertex form is given by the formula,

$y - k = a {(x - h)}^{2}$

where

$(h,k)=(1,-2)$

is the vertex of the parabola.

We substitute these values to obtain,

$y + 2 = a {(x - 1)}^{2}$

The point, (3,6) lies on the parabola.

It must therefore satisfy its equation.

$6 + 2 = a {(3 - 1)}^{2}$

$8= a {(2)}^{2}$

$8=4a$

$a = 2$
Hence the equation of the parabola in vertex form is

$y + 2 = 2 {(x - 1)}^{2}$

PART B

To obtain the equation of the parabola in standard form, we expand the vertex form of the equation.

$y + 2 = 2{(x - 1)}^{2}$

This implies that

$y + 2 = 2(x - 1)(x - 1)$

We expand to obtain,

$y + 2 = 2( {x}^{2} - 2x + 1)$

This will give us,

$y + 2 = 2 {x}^{2} - 4x + 2$

$y = {x}^{2} - 4x$

This equation is now in the form,

$y = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$
where

$a=1,b=-4,c=0$

This is the standard form
