Jessica is asked to write a quadratic equation to represent a function that goes through the point (8, –11) and has a vertex at

(6, –3). Her work is shown below.
–11 = a(8 – 6)2 – 3
–11 = a(2)2 – 3
–11 = 4a – 3
–8 = 4a
a = –2

After Jessica gets stuck, she asks Sally to help her finish the problem. Sally states that Jessica needs to write the quadratic equation using the value she found for a, –2, and the point (8, –11).

Evaluate Jessica’s work and Sally’s review to determine which statement is true.

Answer:

Jessica’s work is correct and Sally’s review is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm just assume it's a vertical parabola

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola in vertex for is equal to

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

where

(h,k) is the vertex

In this problem we have

(h,k)=(6,-3)

point (8,-11)

substitute

-11=a(8-6)^{2}-3

-11=a(2)^{2}-3

-11=4a-3

-8=4a

a=-2

To find the equation using the value of a and the vertex point

so

y=-2(x-6)^{2}-3

therefore

Jessica’s work is correct and Sally’s review is incorrect

What is the 32nd term of 311, 305, 299
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

503

Step-by-step explanation:

For an arithmetic sequence, the n-th term is found by

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

To find d (the common difference) we can simply subtract one of the terms by the last, for example:

d = 299 - 305 \\d = -6 \\

The common difference must be the same throughout the entire sequence, so we can do it once more just to be sure:

d = 305 - 311\\d = -6

We also have to know that a_1 stands for the first term of the sequence, which in this case is 311.

Now that we know this, let's find the 32nd term

a_{32} = 311 + (32 - 1)-6\\a_{32} = 311 + 192\\a_{32} = 503

Good luck!
