So, we are given the y intercept, and since we know c is the same as the y value of the y intercept, we know that c=15.

From there we can pick any two of the points given to us to find our a and b.

Let's use (4,17) and (8,23) becase they are whole numbers.

17=16a+4b+15\\ 23=64a+8b+15 \implies \\ 2=16a+4b\\ 8=64a+8b \implies\\ 8=64+16b \\ 8=64+8b \implies \\ 0=8b \implies\\ b=0

So, with b=0, we can plug it back into the first equation to get:17=16a+4b+15 \implies\\ 2=16a \implies\\ a=\frac{1}{8}

So our quadratic is \frac{1}{8}x^2+15

Find what h equals please help ASAP THANK YOU!<br><br> 4h-1=3h+2
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
H = 3.

FIRST STEP:
<span>Add 1 to both sides to get rid of the -1 on the left side.
4h-1 = 3h+2
</span><span>4h-1 (+1) = 3h+2 (+1)
</span><span>4h = 3h+3
 
SECOND (FINAL) STEP:
Subtract 3h from both sides to get rid of the 3h on the right side.
</span>4h(-3h) = 3h+3 (-3h)
h = 3
Hope this helps, sorry if it's hard to understand :)
