Let x represent the worth of the professional basketball player's autograph a year ago. Since his autograph's worth increased by 40% now, $364 is 1.40x.
364 = 1.40x
Solving for x gives x = 260.
Thus, the autograph of the basketball player was worth only $260 last year.

Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k - the vertex form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (h, k)
![f(x) = -16x^2+ 64x + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(x^2- 4x) + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(\underline {x^2-2\cdot2x\cdot2+2^2}-2^2) + 80\\\\f(x) = -16\big[(x-2)^2-4\big] + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(x-2)^2+64 + 80\\\\\bold{f(x)=-16(x-2)^2+124\quad\implies\quad h=2\,,\quad k=124}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%20%3D%20-16x%5E2%2B%2064x%20%2B%2080%5C%5C%5C%5Cf%28x%29%20%3D%20-16%28x%5E2-%204x%29%20%2B%2080%5C%5C%5C%5Cf%28x%29%20%3D%20-16%28%5Cunderline%20%7Bx%5E2-2%5Ccdot2x%5Ccdot2%2B2%5E2%7D-2%5E2%29%20%2B%2080%5C%5C%5C%5Cf%28x%29%20%3D%20-16%5Cbig%5B%28x-2%29%5E2-4%5Cbig%5D%20%2B%2080%5C%5C%5C%5Cf%28x%29%20%3D%20-16%28x-2%29%5E2%2B64%20%2B%2080%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cbold%7Bf%28x%29%3D-16%28x-2%29%5E2%2B124%5Cquad%5Cimplies%5Cquad%20h%3D2%5C%2C%2C%5Cquad%20k%3D124%7D)
<u>The vertex is </u><u>(2, 124)</u>
Answer:
you have to start with you b which in your problem is 5 so put a point at 5 on the y-axis on your graph. then with the M (the fraction numbers) you have to move either up or down depending if there is a negative number. so yours is 1/2 so then you would start at the 5 point and go up 1 and right 2 then you just keep repeating till you get a few points and can make a line then you just do the same thing for the other equation. start at 3 on the y-axis and then go up 3 and right 4 then just keep repeating till you get a few point and can create a line at the end the lines should cross each other like perpendicular lines
