Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first parabola has vertex (-1, 0) and y-intercept (0, 1).
We plug these values into the given vertex form equation of a parabola:
y - k = a(x - h)^2 becomes
y - 0 = a(x + 1)^2
Next, we subst. the coordinates of the y-intercept (0, 1) into the above, obtaining:
1 = a(0 + 1)^2, and from this we know that a = 1. Thus, the equation of the first parabola is
y = (x + 1)^2
Second parabola: We follow essentially the same approach. Identify the vertex and the two horizontal intercepts. They are:
vertex: (1, 4)
x-intercepts: (-1, 0) and (3, 0)
Subbing these values into y - k = a(x - h)^2, we obtain:
0 - 4 = a(3 - 1)^2, or
-4 = a(2)². This yields a = -1.
Then the desired equation of the parabola is
y - 4 = -(x - 1)^2
They both have the same rate of change
The answers D, the explanation is that it’s basically common sense just look for the same numbers and make it make sense :)
X + (4x+15) = 180
5x+15=180
5x=165
x=33
4(33)+15=147. (Or you could subtract 33 from 180)
Check answer: 33+147=180 yes
