We know that equation of a parabola is given by :-
y = a(x-h)² + k
Where (h,k) is the vertex of parabola and (x,y) is any point on its curve.
Given that vertex of parabola is (3,5) and one point (x,y) is (6,-1).
We can plug the given information in the equation of parabola and solve it for value of 'a' :-
-1 = a(6 - 3)² + 5
-1 = a(3)² + 5
-1 = 9a + 5
9a = -1 -5 = -6
a =
a =
is the final answer.
Answer:
A. y = 3x.
Step-by-step explanation:Relation 2 is a straight line that does not pass through the origin, so it is a partial variation.
Someone is answering the question.
If x^2+bx+16 has at least one real root, then the equation x^2+bx+16=0 has at least one solution. The discriminant of a quadratic equation is b^2-4ac and it determines the nature of the roots. If the discriminant is zero, there is exactly one distinct real root. If the discriminant is positive, there are exactly two roots. The discriminant of <span>x^2+bx+16=0 is b^2-4(1)(16). The inequality here gives the values of b where the discriminant will be positive or zero:
b^2-4(1)(16) ≥ 0
</span><span>b^2-64 ≥ 0
(b+8)(b-8) </span><span>≥ 0
The answer is that all possible values of b are in the interval (-inf, -8]∪[8,inf) because those are the intervals where </span>(b+8)(b-8) is positive.
