Answer:
-0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'a' value can be found by looking at the difference between the y-value of a point 1 unit from the vertex, and the y-value of the vertex.
Here, that is a negative fraction of a unit. If we assume the value is a rational number that can be accurately determined from this graph, then we can find it by looking for a point where the graph crosses a grid intersection. It looks like such grid points are (-7, 0) and (3, 0). The vertex is apparently (-2, 4), so the vertex form of the equation is ...
y = a(x +2)^2 +4
Using the point (3, 0), we have ...
0 = a(3 +2)^2 +4 . . . . . fill in the values of x and y
-4 = 25a . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4; next, divide by 25
a = -4/25 = -0.16

I just took a test with the same question. Proof of right answer is attached.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex and focus are horizon aligned, so the parabola is horizontal and the directrix is a vertical line.
The vertex is halfway between focus and directrix. Directrix: x = -4
Answer:2 hours 15 mins = 2 1/4 hours
2 1/4 hours = 25 miles
1 hour = 25 ÷ 2 1/4 = 25 ÷ 9/4 = 25 x 4/9 = 11.1 miles
Answer: 11.1 mph
