Answer:
y=-3/16(x-8)^2+12
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer to the vertex form equation for a parabola:
y=a(x-h)^2+k where (h,k) is the vertex.
Therefore, we have y=a(x-8)^2+12 as our equation so far. If we plug in (16,0) we can find a:
0=a(16-8)^2+12
0=64a+12
-12=64a
-12/64=a
-3/16=a
Therefore, your final equation is y=-3/16(x-8)^2+12

Answer:
- Josh: 32 mph, 64 mi
- Greg: 64 mph, 320 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent Josh's rate of travel in miles per hour. After 2 hours, his distance is ...
distance = speed · time
distance = x · 2 = 2x
Then 2x is Greg's rate of travel After 5 hours, his distance is ...
distance = speed · time
distance = (2x) · 5 = 10x
The distance they are apart is ...
10x -2x = 256
8x = 256
x = 32
__
Josh's rate: 32 miles per hour; Josh's distance = (2 h)(32 mi/h) = 64 miles.
Greg's rate: (32 mi/h)·2 = 64 mi/h; Greg's distance = (5 h)(64 mi/h) = 320 miles.
<em>__</em>
<em>Check</em>: 320 miles - 64 miles = 256 miles . . . . correct separation
