The equation of a parabola is y=x^2–4x+13. Write the equation in vertex form.

Korolek [52]

Answer:

y = (x - 2)² + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the equation in vertex form use the method of completing the square.

Add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 4x

y = x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 - 4 + 13

= (x - 2)² + 9 ← in vertex form

A flying carpet flies 2.4 miles with the wind in the same amount of time it flies 1.4 miles against the wind. The wind speed is

Ainat [17]

Answer:

$15.2~mph$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time flown by the flying carpet be $t$ . Then, we have that $(2.4)/t=(1.4)/t+2*4$ .

We multiply both sides of the equation by $t$ to get $2.4=1.4+8t$ .

We subtract $1.4$ from both sides to get $1=8t$ .

We divide both sides of the equation by $t=1/8$ .

We know that the speed of the flying carpet in still wind is the average of the rates of the speed of the flying carpet with the wind and against the wind.

The speed with wind is $(2.4)/(1/8)=19.2$ mph.
