Find the equation for the parabola that passes through the point (-2,-4), with vertex at (3,1) and a vertical axis

Mathematics
1 answer:
Igoryamba3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

see explanation

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) = (3, 1), hence

y = a(x - 3)² + 1

To find a substitute (- 2, - 4) into the equation

- 4 = a(- 2 - 3)² + 1

- 4 = 25a + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

25a = - 5 ( divide both sides by 25 )

a = - \frac{5}{25} = - \frac{1}{5}

y = - \frac{1}{5} (x - 3)² + 1 ← in vertex form

Suppose that the local sales tax rate is 6.25% and you purchased a used car for $16,800. What is the car’s total cost?
Tanzania [10]
Total= Car Cost + (Car Cost * Tax %)

Total= $16,800 + ($16,800 * 6.25%)
convert % to decimal form; divide % by 100

Total= $16,800 + ($16,800 * 0.0625)
multiply inside parentheses

Total= $16,800 + $1,050

Total= $17,850


ANSWER: The total cost for the used car with tax is $17,850.

Hopd this helps! :)

Write the equation of the line that passes through (3, 4) and (2, −1) in slope-intercept form. (2 points) a y = 3x − 7 b y = 3x
sashaice [31]

Answer: y = 5x − 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis represent

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The line passes through (3,4) and (2, -1),

y2 = - 1

y1 = 4

x2 = 2

x1 = 3

Slope,m = (- 1 - 4)/(2 - 3) = - 5/- 1 = 5

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute x = 3, y = 4 and m= 5 into

y = mx + c. It becomes

4 = 5 × 3 + c

4 = 15 + c

c = 4 - 15 = - 11

The equation becomes

y = 5x - 11

What is the total amount that Matthew's bank will receive after lending him $8,000 for four years at an interest rate of 6 perce
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Total amount that Matthew's bank will receive is $10099.81.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the amount Matthew's bank will receive after lending him $8,000 for four years at an interest rate of 6 percent, compounded annually.

The formula for compound interest is:

A=P(1+r)^n

Where A = future value

P= Principal Amount

r = interest rate

and n= time

So in the question we are given:

P= $8000

r = 6% or 0.06

t = 4 (since 4 yeras compounded annually)

A= 8000*(1+0.06)^4

A= 8000*(1.06)^4

A= 10099.81

So, total amount that Matthew's bank will receive is $10099.81.
