The path is in the shape of a parabola, the horizontal length is 24, so the middle point is at x=12, the symmetry line is x=12, the highest point (the vertex) is at (12,6)
the equation in vertex form is y=a(x-12)²+6
next, find a by using either one of the two points, the starting point (0,0) or the end point (0,24). obviously (0,0) is easier to calculate:
0=a(0-12)² +6
a=-1/24
so the quadratic equation is y=-
Answer
x=3 or (3,0) and if you need it y=-2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not very good at explaining things, sorry
In science, rate is a<span> quantity measured with respect to another measured quantity. For the data given, we get the rate of each by calculating the slope. We do as follows:
Megan's rate = 12 - 4.5 / 4 -1 = 2.5 inches per week
Suzanne's rate = 11 - 5 / 4-1 = 0.5 inches per week
Therefore, the plant that grew at a faster rate would be </span><span>Megan’s at 2.5 inches per week.</span>
m<JKL=45°
