Formula is y = a(x-h)^2 + k

Where h is 1 and k is 1

f (x) = a(x-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(0-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(1) + 1

-3 - 1 = a

-4 = a

a = -4

A must be equal to -4

y = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

0 = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

4(x^2 - 2x + 1) - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 4 - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 3 = 0

4x^2 - 8x = -3

Divide fpr 4 each term of the equation....x^2 - 2x = -3/4

We must factor the perfect square ax^2 + bx + c which we don't have. We must follow the rule (b/2)^2 where b is -2....(-2/2)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1 and we add up that to both sides

x^2 - 2x + 1 = -3/4 + 1

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 1/4

(x-1)^2 = 1/4

square root both sides x-1 = (+/-) 1/2

x1 = +1/2 + 1 = 3/2

x2 = -1/2 + 1 = 1/2

x-intercepts are 1/2 and 3/2, in form (3/2,0); (1/2,0)

So in this question we are trying to find the two x - intercepts.

y = a(x-h)^2 + k  
is the formula


f (x) = a(x-1)^2 + 1

-3 = a(-1)^2 + 1


-3 = a(1) + 1

-3 - 1 = a

a = -4

So <span>a is -4.

</span>y = -4(x-1)^2 + 1

4(x^2 - 2x + 1) - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 4 - 1 = 0

4x^2 - 8x + 3 = 0

4x^2 - 8x = -3

So our standard form is:
4x^2 - 8x = -3&#10;

( \frac{3}{2} ,0)

and

(\frac{1}{2} ,0)

are you x - intercepts.

Also, in Plato put a comma in-between the intercepts

(x_{1} y_{1}),( x_{2} , y_{2} )<u />

Hope I've helped!

Please help work this equation
Flauer [41]

Hi!

<u>Given these two equations:</u>

x = y + 8

x + 4 = 2(y + 4)

We want to solve using the substitution method. Knowing that x is equal to y + 8, we can simply plug in 'y + 8' in for x in the second equation, like so:

(y+8)+4=2(y+4)

Combine like terms on both sides:

y+12=2y+8

Subtract y from both sides:

12=y+8

Subtract 8 from both sides:

y=4

Now, we can simply plug the y value in to the first equation, and solve for x:

x=4+8

Simplify:

x=12

<h3>Therefore, x is equal to 12 and y is equal to 4.</h3>

Tia types 66 words in 3 minutes. She wants to know how many words she can type in 5 and 10 minutes if she keeps the same rate.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

110 words in 5 min, 220 words in 10 min

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx (there is no intercept because you can't type anything in 0 minutes)

66 = 3m

m = 22

y = 22x

5 minutes:

y = 22(5) = 110 words

10 minutes:

y = 22(10) = 220 words

The table represents a linear function. <br><br> What is the slope of the function?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is given with the formula

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using the first two points, (-2, 8) and (-1, 2), we have

m = (2-8)/(-1--2) = -6/(-1+2) = -6/1 = -6
