Answer:

The equation of the quadratic in standard form is:

y=-2x^2-8x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they give us the information about where the vertex of the parabola is located, and one extra points where it passes through, we can use the general form of a quadratic in vertex form:

y-y_v=a\,(x-x_v)^2

where (x_v,y_v) is the location of the vertex (in our case the point (-2,6).

Therefore the equation above becomes:

y-y_v=a\,(x-x_v)^2\\y-6=a\,(x-(-2))^2\\y-6=a\,(x+2)^2

Now,we can use the fact that the point (-4,-2) is also a point of the graph, to find the value of the parameter "a":

y-6=a\,(x+2)^2\\-2-6=a\,(-4+2)^2\\-8=a\,(-2)^2\\-8=a\,*4\\a=-2

Then, the equation of the quadratic with such characteristics becomes:

y-6=-2\,(x+2)^2\\y-6=-2x^2-8x-8\\y=-2x^2-8x-2

which is the equation of the quadratic in standard form.

Answer:

<u>The age of Yessenia's father in terms of y is y + 32</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to answer the question correctly:

Age of Yessenia now = y

Her father is 32 years older

2.  What is the age in terms of y of her father?

If the age of Yessenia now is y, we can find out the age of her father, this way:

y + 32

<u>Therefore, the age of Yessenia's father in terms of y is y + 32</u>
