To solve the problem, substitute the given points for x in the given equation to get

-10=(-1)^2a+(-1)b+c\Rightarrow-10=a-b+c \\ -6=(1)^2a+(1)b+c\Rightarrow-6=a+b+c \\ -13=(2)^2a+(2)b+c\Rightarrow-13=4a+2b+c

Solving the three equations simultaneously, we have:

a = -3, b = 2 and c = -5

Therefore, the required equation is

y=-3x^2+2x-5

Which of the following statements best describes the effect of replacing the graph of y = f(x) with the graph of y = f(x) + 20?
Veronika [31]
The correct answer is the graph is shifted up by 20 units.

When a number is added to or subtracted from f(x), it translates the graph of f(x) either up or down or we can say it moves the graph of f(x) vertically up or down. Addition of a number moves it vertically up and subtraction moves it vertically down.

In this case 20 is being added to f(x), so this will shift the graph of f(x) 20 units up.

What is 2,000,000 x 10,000 x 170 x 10E1146?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

3.4*10^1159

Step-by-step explanation:

2,000,000 x 10,000 x 170 x 10E1146

2,000,000 x 10,000 = 2*10^10

2*10^10*170 =340*10^10

Putting this in proper scientific notation by moving the decimal 2 places to the left, means adding 2 to the exponent

3.4*10 ^ (10+2)

3.4*10^12

10E 1146  means 10*10^1146

This is really 1 * 10^(1146+1)

3.4*10^12 * 10^1147

We add the exponents

3.4*10^(12+1147)

3.4*10^1159
