The general eaquation of a parabola in terms of its vertex is:
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
where the vertex point is (h, k)
therefore, an equation of a parabola with vertex (1, -2) is:
y = 5(x - 1)^2 - 2
Answer:
18 1/3. You add 18 1/3 to cancel out that number.
Step-by-step explanation:
We start with 3: it stays unchanged
3.
then the first decimal place also remains unchanged:
3.6
now the second decimal place:
3.61
does it remain unchanged? No! the number AFTER is is 5 or bigger (it's 7), so we need to round it up. the answer is this:
3.62
The answer is 4 3/8 boxes because 1 3/4 x 2 1/2 = 4 3/8.
