If I am reading the question correctly it would come out to -6x+42 First do all the addition and squaring, then factor in that negative. You come out to -2x^3 +2x^3-4x-2x+25+5+9+3. The x^3's cancel, the -x's add to -6x, then all that other adds to 42.
Equation of a parabola with vertex at (2, -1) is
y = a(x - 2)^2 - 1
Using the given point: -3 = a(4 - 2)^2 - 1
-2 = a(2)^2
4a = -2
a = -1/2
Therefore, required equation is
y = -1/2(x - 2)^2 - 1
y = -1/2(x^2 - 4x + 4) - 1
y = -1/2x^2 + 2x - 2 - 1
y = -1/2x^2 + 2x - 3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle is given by:

Where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.
The center of the circle is (1, -4).
And the radius is 3.
Substitute:

Simplify. Thus, our equation is:

The answer is 12 1/4. how I got my answer.
Their are 4 quarters to a whole, so that means all I have to do is multiply 4×3=12, then add 1/4+12= 12 1/4.
I hope this helps!
