Answer:
x^2 - 2x + 5 = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
The (0, 5) is the point where the parabola passes through the y axis (where x = 0), so we can write the equation as
y = ax^2 + bx + 5 where a and b are constants to be found.
Also, since (1, 4) and (2, 5) are points on the curve, substituting, we have the system:
a(1)^2 + 1b + 5 = 4
a(2)^2 + 2b + 5 = 5
Simplify these 2 equations:
a + b = -1 .................(1)
4a + 2b = 0..................(2)
Multiply the first equation by -2:
-2a - 2b = 2 .................(3)
Add (2) + (3):
2a = 2
a = 1.
Substitute a = 1 into (2):-
4*1 + 2b = 0
2b = -4
b = -2.
Answer:
126.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the number of combinations of 4 cards from 9 cards:
= 9C4
= 9! / 4! 5!.
A quick way of calculating this is
9*8*7*6
----------- = 9*2*7 = 126 combinations.
4*3*2*1
1 = 4
a2 = -2(a1) - 1
a2 = -2(4) - 1
a2 = -9
a3 = -2(a2) - 1
a3 = -2(9) - 1
a3 = -19
