Question

A standard form of a parabola with points through (2, 0) (3, 2) (4, 6)

Answer 1

Answer:

C. y = x^2 - 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(4,6)

6 = 4² - 3(4) + 2

6 = 16 - 12 + 2

6 = 6

2 = 2

(3,2)

2 = 3² - 3(3) + 2

2 = 9 - 9 + 2

2 = 2

(2,0)

0 = 2² - 3(2) + 2

0 = 4 - 6 + 2

0 = 0

Answer 2

The standard form of a parabola with points through (2, 0) (3, 2) (4, 6)

is y = x² - 3x + 2 ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a parabola is y = ax² + bx + c, where a, b , c are constant

To find a , b , c

• You must have 3 points lie on the parabola
• Substitute the coordinates of each point in the equation to make system of equations of a , b and c
• Solve the system of equation to find them

∵ The standard form of a parabola is y = ax² + bx + c

∵ The parabola passes through points (2 , 0) , (3 , 2) , (4 , 6)

- Substitute the coordinates of each point in the equation

Point (2 , 0)

∵ x = 2 and y = 0

∴ 0 = a(2)² + b(2) + c

∴ 0 = 4a + 2b + c

- Switch the two sides

∴ 4a + 2b + c = 0 ⇒ (1)

Point (3 , 2)

∵ x = 3 and 2 = 0

∴ 2 = a(3)² + b(3) + c

∴ 2 = 9a + 3b + c

- Switch the two sides

∴ 9a + 3b + c = 2 ⇒ (2)

Point (4 , 6)

∵ x = 4 and y = 6

∴ 6 = a(4)² + b(4) + c

∴ 6 = 16a + 4b + c

- Switch the two sides

∴ 16a + 4b + c = 6 ⇒ (3)

Subtract equation (1) from equations (2) and (3)

∴ 5a + b = 2 ⇒ (4)

∴ 12a + 2b = 6 ⇒ (5)

- Multiply equation (4) by -2 to eliminate b

∴ -10a - 2b = -4 ⇒ (6)

- Add equations (5) and (6)

∴ 2a = 2

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ a = 1

Substitute the value of a in equation (4) to find b

∵ 5(1) + b = 2

∴ 5 + b = 2

- Subtract 5 from both sides

∴ b = -3

Substitute the value of a and b in equation (1) to find c

∵ 4(1) + 2(-3) + c = 0

∴ 4 - 6 + c = 0

- Add like terms

∴ -2 + c = 0

- Add 2 to both sides

∴ c = 2

Substitute the values of a , b , c in the standard form above

∵ y = ax² + bx + c

∵ a = 1 , b = -3 , c = 2

∴ y = (1)x² + (-3)x + (2)

∴ y = x² - 3x + 2

The standard form of a parabola with points through (2, 0) (3, 2)

(4, 6) is y = x² - 3x + 2

There is another solution you can substitute the x-coordinate of each point in each answer to find the corresponding value of y, if the value of y gives the same value of the y-coordinate of the point for the three points then this answer is the standard form of the parabola
