Answers:
- Vertex form: y = -2(x-1)^2 + 8
- Standard form: y = -2x^2 + 4x + 6
Pick whichever form you prefer.
=============================================================
Explanation:
The vertex is the highest point in this case, which is located at (1,8).
In general, the vertex is (h,k). So we have h = 1 and k = 8.
One root of this parabola is (-1,0). So we'll plug x = -1 and y = 0 in as well. As an alternative, you can go for (x,y) = (3,0) instead.
Plug those four values mentioned into the equation below. Solve for 'a'.
y = a(x-h)^2 + k
0 = a(-1-1)^2+8
0 = a(-2)^2+8
0 = 4a+8
4a+8 = 0
4a = -8
a = -8/4
a = -2
The vertex form of this parabola is y = -2(x-1)^2+8
Expanding that out gets us the following
y = -2(x-1)^2+8
y = -2(x^2-2x+1)+8
y = -2x^2+4x-2+8
y = -2x^2+4x+6 .... equation in standard form
It’s the first one
x = -12 or x=2
Answer:y=-2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
(1,-3) and a slope of -2
Use Formula
Y= mx +b to find b. By using the slope and point given .
M is slope
Y is -3
X Is 1
Y=mx+b
-3= -2(1)+b
-3= -2+b
-3+2=b
-1=b
Now create the equation by inputting the slope they gave you which is -2 and answer we solved for b which is -1 .
Y= -2x-1
Answer: Slope: -1/2
Step-by-step explanation: To find slope take 2 points that lie on the line and use this formula to solve: <em> </em>I will use (0, -2) and (2, -3) to solve

y2 - y1 x1 y1 x2 y2
-----------
x2 - x1
So, for this question, substitute the x and y values from the points above to solve.
-3 - (-2)
----------- = - 1/2
2 - 0
Hope this helped. :)
