The vertex form of the equation of a parabola is

                     f(x) = a( x − h)^2 + k

where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola. In this case, we are given that      (h,k) = (5,0). Hence,

                     f(x) = a( x − 5)^2 + 0

                           =a( x − 5)^2

Since we also know the parabola passes through the point (7,−2), we can solve for a because we know that f(7) = −2.

                        a( 7 − 5)^2 = -2

                           a(2)^2 = -2

                              4a = -2

                               a = -1/2

Thus, the given parabola has equation

                      f(x) = -1/2(x − 5)^2

How do you find the constant of variation when y=-(2/3) and x=3
Katyanochek1 [597]
You can't. If you think about the straight line on a graph, those numbers
describe a single point that the line goes through, and they don't tell you
anything about the slope of the line, or where it crosses the x-axis or the
y-axis.  So I don't think you can tell the constant of variation from one point.
