The vertex of this parabola is at (3,5). When the Y value is 6X value is negative one what is the coefficient of the squared ter
1 answer:
We know that equation of a parabola is given by :-
y = a(x-h)² + k
Where (h,k) is the vertex of parabola and (x,y) is any point on its curve.
Given that vertex of parabola is (3,5) and one point (x,y) is (6,-1).
We can plug the given information in the equation of parabola and solve it for value of 'a' :-
-1 = a(6 - 3)² + 5
-1 = a(3)² + 5
-1 = 9a + 5
9a = -1 -5 = -6
a =
a = is the final answer.

Without any calculations it's evident it can't be neither B (both numbers are even, so they're divisible by 2) nor C (the numbers end in 0 and 5, so they're divisible by 5).
A.
Both numbers have a factor of 3, so they're not relatively prime.
That means it must be D. But, let's check it.
Indeed, those two numbers are relatively prime.
