One possible equation for this quadratic would be 

y=(x-4)²-1.  This is vertex form:  y=a(x-h)²+k, where (h, k) is the vertex.

However, this is not the only possible equation.  There could be multiple values for a, in front of the parentheses, that we don't know about from the information we are given.

We can also write this equation in standard form (y=ax²+bx+c).  First write the squared binomial as the product of two binomials:
y=(x-4)(x-4)-1

Multiply the binomials:
y=x*x-4*x-4*x-4(-4)-1
 = x²-4x-4x--16-1
 = x²-8x+16-1
 = x²-8x+15

Again, this would change depending on what the value of a is in the functoin.

When the product of 6 and the square of a number is increased by 5 times the number, the result is 4.
il63 [147K]

Let x be the unknown number. Its square is x^2. The product of 6 and the square of the number is 6x^2. Increase this by 5 and you get 6x^2+5.

If this has to equal 4, you have 6x^2+5=4

The volume of a triangular prism with base dimensions of 4 cm height and 10 cm base and a prism height of 15 cm is??
jonny [76]
I think you can do this way:
Volume = B*h where B is the area of the base.
B= 4 * 10 = 40
V= 40 * 15
V= 600 cm^3

8x + 5y = 22<br> -8x + y = 14
finlep [7]

Answer:

Y = 6 X=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Add the numbers 8x+-8x=0. 5y+y=6y. 22+14=36
  2. So that means 6y=36. So Y would equal 6
  3. Substitute the values it one of the original equations. 8x + 5(6) =22. 8x+30=22
  4. Minus 22 from both sides.
  5. That would give you 8x=-8
  6. So x would equal - 1
