Answer:

y = 3x² + 54x + 240

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

here (h, k) = (- 9, - 3), thus

y = a(x + 9)² - 3

To find a substitute either of the roots into the equation

Using (- 8, 0), then

0 = a(- 8 + 9)² - 3

0 = a - 3 ( add 3 to both sides )

a = 3

y = 3(x + 9)² - 3 ← in vertex form

Expand factor and simplify

y = 3(x² + 18x + 81) - 3

= 3x² + 54x + 243 - 3

= 3x² + 54x + 240 ← in standard form

Answer:

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

$1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>

A landscaper needs 3 4/8 pounds of plant food. He has 1 1/4 pounds in his truck, and another 4/6 pound at his shop. How many more pounds of plant food does the landscaper need?

Let

x ----> the additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper

we know that

The additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper plus the pounds in his truck plus the pounds in his shop must be equal to the total pounds of plant food needed

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$x+1\frac{1}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=3\frac{4}{8}$
