Answer:
<u>Part 1</u>
<u>Sideways or "horizontal" parabola</u> with a horizontal axis of symmetry.
<u>Part 2</u>
The vertex is the turning point: (-3, 1)
<u>Part 3</u>
Vertex form of a horizontal parabola:
where:
- (h, k) is the vertex
- a is some constant
If a > 0 the parabola opens to the right.
If a < 0 the parabola opens to the left.
Point on the curve: (-1, 2)
Substituting the vertex and the found point into the formula and solving for a:



<u>Part 4</u>
Equation for the given parabola in vertex form:

Equation in standard form:

Answer:
72.5mph
Step-by-step explanation:
There is an easy way to work this. Divide the miles he drove by 2 so that you know how much he drove in 1/5 hours.
29/2= 14.5miles driven in 1/5 hours
Now, just multiply that number by 5 so that you know how many miles he drove in 5/5 hours (one full hour).
14.5*5= 72.5miles
Draw two lines that connect at one point. label where they connect w and the other two ends j
no, 5 is in the thousandths place
