Solve for -(6h+7)+8=-19

1 answer:

8 0

Step One:
Distribute.
-(6h+7)+8=-19
Distribute the negative into the parentheses.
-6h-7+8=-19
Combine any like-terms.
-6h+1=-19
Solve for h. Subtract 1 from both sides.
-6h=-20
Divide by 6 on both sides.
h = 20/6
Simplify the fraction.
h = 10/3

Write the equation of a parabola having the vertex (1, −2) and containing the point (3, 6) in vertex form. Then, rewrite the equ

In-s [12.5K]

PART A

The equation of the parabola in vertex form is given by the formula,

$y - k = a {(x - h)}^{2}$

where

$(h,k)=(1,-2)$

is the vertex of the parabola.

We substitute these values to obtain,

$y + 2 = a {(x - 1)}^{2}$

The point, (3,6) lies on the parabola.

It must therefore satisfy its equation.

$6 + 2 = a {(3 - 1)}^{2}$

$8= a {(2)}^{2}$

$8=4a$

$a = 2$
Hence the equation of the parabola in vertex form is

$y + 2 = 2 {(x - 1)}^{2}$

PART B

To obtain the equation of the parabola in standard form, we expand the vertex form of the equation.

$y + 2 = 2{(x - 1)}^{2}$

This implies that

$y + 2 = 2(x - 1)(x - 1)$

We expand to obtain,

$y + 2 = 2( {x}^{2} - 2x + 1)$

This will give us,

$y + 2 = 2 {x}^{2} - 4x + 2$

$y = {x}^{2} - 4x$

This equation is now in the form,

$y = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$
where

$a=1,b=-4,c=0$

This is the standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Vertical Throw</u>

It refers to a situation where an object is thrown verticaly upwards with some inicial speed v_o and let in free air (no friction) until it completes its movement up and finally returns to the very same point of lauch. The only acting force is gravity

The projectile formula is given as

$h=-16t^2+v_0t$
