<h3>Answer:</h3>

y = -3(x -2)² -5

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The equation of a parabola with vertex (h, k) is given by ...

... y = a(x -h)² +k . . . . . . . for some vertical scale factor "a".

We can find the value of "a" by substituting the coordinates of a point that is not the vertex. Here, that point is the y-intercept: (0, -17).

... y = a(x -2)² -5 . . . . . initial form of the equation for the parabola

... -17 = a(-2)² -5 . . . . . substitute y-intercept values

... -12 = 4a . . . . . . . . . . add 5, simplify

... -12/4 = a = -3

The desired equation is ... y = -3(x -2)² -5.

Need help!!! ASAP Please

Answer:

(A) 49

Explanation:

Most of the equation is just explaining what length and width is.

Area = L (length) · W (Width)

Option One:

Length: 9

Width: 5

9 · 5 = 45

There is no option for 45 so we need to check option two.

Option Two:

Length: 7

Width: 7

7 · 7 = 49

There is an option for 49, so that is our answer.

Basically, they are just explaining that Area = L · W, and to check both options to see if there is an answer.
