Answer:

The value of a is -3

The equation is y=-3(x-1)^{2}+4

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The function of a vertical parabola written in vertex form is equal to

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

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

in this problem we have

(h,k)=(1,4)

substitute in the equation

y=a(x-1)^{2}+4

Find the value of the coefficient a

Substitute the value of x and y of the point (0,1) in the equation

1=a(0-1)^{2}+4

1=a(-1)^{2}+4

1=a+4

a=-3

The equation is equal to

y=-3(x-1)^{2}+4 ----> is a vertical parabola open downward

Vertex is at (1,4)  so h = 1 and  k = 4

so we have  y = a(x - 1)^2 + 4

when x = 0 y = 1 so

1 = a(0-1)^2 + 4

1 =  a + 4

a = -3

Use < >, or = to compare the following decimals.
Contact [7]

Answer:

0.32, 0.45, 0.76.

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you would use your < >,= signs and compare all of them until you have eliminated ALL but one (so 0.91<0.98 this is because 0.98 is close to 1 whole than 0.91) and you would continue this explanation for so on

Emma says the GCF of 16 and 12 is 48. Her friend grace says the answer is right. Who is right? Explain help me plz
Lilit [14]
The GCF is only 12 because 16 can't multiply a number that gives you 48 only 12.

Use the marked parallel lines to find the value of y in the diagram below (1 point)
Inessa [10]
2x + 5 = 3x - 45                    [alternate interior angles]
3x - 2x = 5 + 45
x = 50

4y - 1 + 2x + 5 = 180                [supplementaly angles]
4y + 2(50) + 4 = 180
4y + 100 = 176
4y = 76
y = 19

Does anybody know the correct answer to this?
olganol [36]

Answer:

  • sin(X) = 4/5
  • cos(X) = 3/5
  • tan(X) = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to help you remember the relations between sides and trig functions in a right triangle.

  Sin(X) = Opposite/Hypotenuse = 24/30 = 4/5

  Cos(X) = Adjacent/Hypotenuse = 18/30 = 3/5

  Tan(X) = Opposite/Adjacent = 24/18 = 4/3

_____

You may be expected to leave the trig ratios in the original unreduced form.
