The correct answer would be A. There is only a 1/8th percent chance of the spinner landing on 4.
As it has a maximum value the coefficient of x^2 will be negative
The vertex will be at (-8,2) so in vertex form it is
y = a(x + 8)^2 + 2
and as it passes through (-7,-1) we have:
-1 = a(-7+8)^2 + 2
-1 = a + 2 so a = -3
answer is y = -3(x + 8)^2 + 2
in standard form this is y = -3x^2 -48x - 190
ahaha good one
Step-by-step explanation:
...........
Find the minimum point on the parabola, and take the x component of the coordinate. Then, put that number into this equation: x = (whatever the number was) so in this case the axis (or line) of symmetry is x = 1
