We are asked to determine the value of a such that the function f(x) = ax^2 + 5 is fit for the point given (-1,2). In this case, we substitute 2 to y and -1 to x. The result is then 2 = a*(-1)^2 + 5 ; 2 = a + 5; a is then equal to -3
Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
The best explanation is noticing that in order to get from the point R (12, 1) to the point Q (7, 4) we move 5 units to the left and 3 units up. And to go from point Q (7, 4) to point P (2, 7) we do exactly the same: move 5 units to the left and 3 units up. That means that these points are all connected via the same rate of change: - 3/5, which is in fact the slope of the line the three points belong to.
