I think the answer is x=10
If the parabola has y = -4 at both x = 2 and x = 3, then since a parabola is symmetric, its axis of symmetry must be between x = 2 and x = 3, or at x = 5/2. Our general equation can then be:
y = a(x - 5/2)^2 + k
Substitute (1, -2): -2 = a(-3/2)^2 + k
-2 = 9a/4 + k
Substitute (2, -4): -4 = a(-1/2)^2 + k
-4 = a/4 + k
Subtracting: 2 = 2a, so a = 1. Substituting back gives k = -17/4.
So the equation is y = (x - 5/2)^2 - 17/4
Expanding: y = x^2 - 5x + 25/4 - 17/4
y = x^2 - 5x + 2 (This is the standard form.)

Answer:
7 students
Step-by-step explanation:
1+2+4=7students
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
(m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis)
For lines to be parallel, they need to have the same slope.
y - 3x = 2 Add 3x on both sides to change the equation to slope-intercept form
y - 3x + 3x = 2 + 3x
y = 3x + 2 The slope is 3, so the parallel line's slope is also 3.
Now that you know the slope, substitute/plug it into the equation
y = mx + b
y = 3x + b To find "b", plug in the point (6, 1) into the equation, then isolate/get the variable "b" by itself
1 = 3(6) + b
1 = 18 + b Subtract 18 on both sides to get "b" by itself
1 - 18 = 18 - 18 + b
-17 = b
y = 3x - 17 Your answer is the 1st option
