<u>Given</u>:

The graph of the parabola with vertex (-2,-4)

We need to determine the equation of the parabola in vertex form.

<u>Equation in vertex form:</u>

The general form of the equation of the parabola in vertex form is given by

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

where a is the constant and (h,k) is the vertex.

Substituting the vertex (-2,-4) in the above formula, we get;

y=a(x+2)^2-4  -------- (1)

To determine the value of a, let us substitute the point that the parabola passes through.

Hence, substituting the point (0,8) in equation (1), we get;

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

8=a(2)^2-4

8=4a-4

12=4a

3=a

Thus, the value of a is 3.

Substituting the value a = 3 in equation (1), we get;

y=3(x+2)^2-4

Thus, the equation of the parabola in vertex form is y=3(x+2)^2-4

How do i make 1\2x-y=4 into slope intercept form
kari74 [83]
Simple, since you want to find y, in y=mx+b form, move everything to the other side.

1/2x-y=4

Move 1/2x

1/2x-y=4
-1/2x     -1/2x

Making it look like,

-y=4-1/2x

Divide by the negative 1 in front of the y,

-y=4-1/2x
/-1    /-1

y=-4+1/2x

or 

y=1/2x-4

Thus, this written in y=mx+b form, y=1/2x-4.

Someone help, I'm really bad at geometry
jeka94
Use linear pairs to find the measure of angle B and the measure of the angle adjacent to the measured angle 135. Use the vertical angle theorem to find that angle inside the triangle across from B. Then use the triangle angle sum theorem to add up your values to equal 180. Solve for x and then plug that value back into 31 +x.

State whether the relationship between x and y in y=4x-5 is proportional or not
mart [117]
The answer is "No they are not proportional" since the line y = 4x-5 doesn't go through the origin. Put another way, the equation is not in the form y = k*x for some fixed value k.
