Answer: base a=2ft

height hₐ=5ft

Step-by-step explanation:

use equation for area of triengle

A=a*hₐ/2

hₐ-height of tringle

a-base of triangle

hₐ=a+3

A=a(a+3)/2

2A=a²+3a

A=5ft

2*5=a²+3a

a²+3a-10=0

a=(-3±√9+40)/2

a=(-3±7)/2

a=-5ft

a=2 ft

hₐ=2+3=5ft

Write the equation in vertex form of the parabola with the vertex (-4,-4) that goes through the point (-2,-16)

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$- 3(x + 4) {}^{2} - 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form is

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

We know that h and k are both -4. Let x be -2 and y be -16.

$a( - 2 + 4) {}^{2} - 4 = - 16$

$a(2) {}^{2} - 4 = - 16$

$4a - 4 = - 16$

$4a = - 12$

$a = - 3$

So the equation in vertex form is

$- 3(x + 4) {}^{2} - 4$
