Answer: The answer is f(x) = - 2x²+12x-22.


Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to write the function describing a parabola with vertex (3, -4)  and passing through the point (5, -12).

We know that the standard form of a parabola with vertex (h, k) is given by

f(x)-k=a(x-h)^2.

Here (h, k) = (3, -4), so we have

f(x)-(-4)=a(x-3)^2\\\\\Rightarrow f(x)+4=a(x-3)^2.~~~~~~~~~~~(I)

Also, the parabola is passing through the point (5, -12), so

-12+4=a(5-3)^2\\\\\Rightarrow -8=a\times 4\\\\\Rightarrow a=-2.

Substituting the value of 'a' above in equation (I), we have

f(x)+4=-2(x-3)^2\\\\\Rightarrow f(x)=-2(x^2-6x+9)-4\\\\\Rightarrow f(x)=-2x^2+12x-22.

Thus, the answer is f(x) = - 2x²+12x-22..

In this case u need to divide 10 1/2 by 14 coz theres 14 ones in 14
so 10 1/2 divided by 14 = 0.75
<em>so theres 0.75 sugar in one ounce of drink ;)</em>

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Josh had $500

Karen had $100

Step-by-step explanation:

          J = 5K

  J - 20 = 6(K - 20)

5K - 20 = 6K - 120

      100 = K

          J = 500

Another question for math. ill give mad points, the question is in attachment
yulyashka [42]
For this case we have the following points:
 y = (- 2, 5)
 z = (1, 3)
 Therefore, the vector yz is given by:
 yz = z - y = (1, 3) - (-2, 5)
 yz = ((1 - (- 2)), (3-5))
 yz = ((1 + 2), -2)
 yz = (3, -2)
 Then, the magnitude is given by:
 lyzl = root ((3) ^ 2 + (-2) ^ 2)
 lyzl = root (9 + 4)
 lyzl = root (13)
 Answer:
 
yz = (3, -2)
 lyzl = root (13)
