Answer:

3

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) = (2, - 4) , thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 4

To find a substitute (3, - 1 ) into the equation

- 1 = a(3 - 2)² - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )

3 = a

Thus

y = 3(x - 2)2 - 4 ← equation in vertex form

   = 3(x² - 4x + 4) + 4

    = 3x² - 12x + 12 + 4

     = 3x² - 12x + 16 ← equation in standard form

with coefficient of x² term = 3

Answer:

  28°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, so we have ...

  (4x) +(x +18) +112 = 180

  5x = 50 . . . . . . . subtract 130

  x = 10

Then the two acute angles are ...

  (4x)° = (4·10)° = 40°

  (x+18)° = (10+18)° = 28°

The measure of the smallest angle is 28°.

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope equals rise over run, so you go from your first point which is (0,0) and go up to (2,1), so you rise one and then go over 2, which gives you 1/2
