Write the equation in vertex form: Vertex is (1.-3) and passes through the point (-1,5)
boyakko [2]

Answer:

y = 2(x - 1)² - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (1, - 3), thus

y = a(x - 1)² - 3

To find a substitute (- 1, 5) into the equation

5 = a(- 1 - 1)² - 3

5 = (- 2)²a - 3 ( add 3 to both sides )

8 = 4a ( divide both sides by 4 )

a = 2

Thus

y = 2(x - 1)² - 3 ← in vertex form

The base of a regular pyramid is a hexagon. The figure shows a regular hexagon with center C. An apothem is shown as a dashed se
Komok [63]
Answer: The area of the hexagonal base is 96 square roots of 3.

The hexagon is divided into 6 congruent triangles. All we have to do is find the area of one of these shapes and multiply by 6.

The base of each triangle is 8 because the triangles are equilateral and one side is already given. The height is 4 square roots of 3 because it is a 30/6090 triangle.

To find the area, we multiply 8 x 4 square roots of 3 and divide by 2 to get 16 square roots of 3.

Multiply 16 by 6 and you get 96 square roots of 3.

Jeff bicycles 126 miles at the rate of r mph. The same trip would have taken 2 hours longer if he had decreased his speed by 4 m
weqwewe [10]

Given Information:

Distance = 160 miles

Required Information:

Rate = r = ?

Answer:

Rate = r = 20 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the rate is given by

Rate = distance/time

r = \frac{d}{t} \\\\t = \frac{d}{r} \\\\t = \frac{160}{r} \\\\

It is given that the same trip would have taken 2 hours longer if he had decreased his speed by 4 mph.

Mathematically,

\frac{160}{(r-4)} = \frac{160}{r} + 2 \\\\

Simplify the equation

\frac{160}{(r-4)} - \frac{160}{r} = 2 \\\\\frac{160r - 160(r-4)}{r(r-4)} = 2 \\\\\frac{160r - 160r+640)}{r(r-4)} = 2 \\\\160r - 160r+640 = r(r-4) (2) \\\\640 = r(r-4) (2) \\\\640 = (r^2 - 4r) (2) \\\\640 = 2r^2 - 8r \\\\2r^2 - 8r-640 =0 \\\\2(r^2 - 4r-320) =0 \\\\r^2 - 4r-320 =0 \\\\

Now we are left with a quadratic equation.

We may solve the quadratic equation using the factorization method  

r^2 - 4r-320 =0 \\\\r^2-20r+16r-320=0 \\\\r(r-20)+16(r-20)=0 \\\\(r-20) (r+16)=0 \\\\

So,

(r-20) = 0 \\\\r = 20 \\\\

OR

(r+16)=0 \\\\r = -16 \\\\

Since rate cannot be negative, discard the negative value of r

Therefore, the rate is

r = 20 \: mph

Find the slope of the line whose equation is 6x - 3y = 12.
kirill115 [55]
You can find the slope by making the equation into slope-intercept form, in other words, solving it for y.

6x - 3y = 12                   Subtract 6x from both sides
      -3y = -6x + 12          Divide both sides by -3
         y = 2x - 4              

Slope Intercept form is y = mx + b, where m represents slope. M in your equation is 2, so the slope of the line is 2.
