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.

Arisa [49]

Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(4+5)-2

You can either remove brackets and just do a little addition and subtraction.

4+5-2

9-2\\7

So the answer is 7.

Or just finish things inside the brackets first.

(4+5)-2\\9-2\\7

So the answer is 7.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

$37.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the price is $34.98 and there's an 8.2% tax on that.  To obtain the after-tax amount due, multiply $34.98 by (1 + 0.082), or 1.082, obtaining:

1.082($34.98) = $37.85 (rounded to the nearest cent)

I dont know how to add work for a question like this, however, I know how I'd show work....

Draw a graph and stick a point in the IV quadrant and label it "original". Then next to it, draw another graph and stick a point in the III quadrant and label it "reflection"


TIP: if you do that, make sure the points are in the same location in each quadrant
