What is the equation, in standard form, of a parabola that models the values in the table? x~ -1 0 2
Inessa05 [86]
<h2>Steps</h2>
  • Standard Form Equation: f(x) = ax² + bx + c

So firstly, since (0,5) is one of our values we can plug it into the standard form equation to solve for the c variable (since 0 will cancel out the a and b variable):

5=a*0^2+b*0+c\\5=c

Now we know that the value of c is 5. Next, plug in (-1,12) into the standard form equation and simplify (remember to also plug in 5 for the c variable):

12=a*(-1)^2+b*(-1)+5\\12=a-b+5\\7=a-b

Next, plug (2,15) into the standard form equation and simplify:

15=a*2^2+b*2+5\\15=4a+2b+5\\10=4a+2b\\5=2a+b

Now, with our last two simplified equations we will create a system of equations:

7=a-b\\5=2a+b

Now, I will be using the elimination method with this system. With the system, add up the equations together and you will get:

12=3a

From here, we can solve for the a variable. With it, just divide both sides by 3:

4=a

Now that we know the value of a, plug it into either equation to solve for the b variable:

7=4-b\\3=-b\\-3=b\\\\5=2(4)+b\\5=8+b\\-3=b

<h2>Answer</h2>

Putting all of our obtained values together, your final answer is:

f(x)=4x^2-3x+5

Which of the following expressions could be used to estimate the difference between -12.34 and -4.8?
Sveta_85 [38]
-12+5

for -12.34,we take it as -12
for -4.8,we take it as -5

to measure the difference,here's what you need to do

-12-(-5)
=-12+5
thus the ans is -12+5

hope it helps

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Andru [333]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area would be 9 times compared to the area of the original square. To test this, you can let the side of the original square be equal 1. By tripling this side, the side becomes three. Utilizing the area of a square formula, A= s^2, the area of the original square would be 1 after substituting 1 for s. Then, you do the same for the area of the tripled square. With the substitution, the area of the tripled square would be 9. This result displays the area of the tripled square being 9 times as large as the area of the original square. This pattern can be used for other measurements of the square such as:

let s = 2, Original Area= 2^2 = 4 Tripled Area= (2(3))^2 = 6^2= 36. 36/4 = 9

let s = 3, Original Area = 3^2 = 9 Tripled Area - (3(3))^2 = 9^2 =81. 81/9 = 9

let s = 4, Original Area = 4^2 = 16 Tripled Area - (4(3))^2 = 12^2 = 144. 144/16 = 9

let s = 5, Original Area = 5^2 = 25 Tripled Area - (5(3))^2 = 15^2 = 225. 225/25 = 9

let s = 6, Original Area = 6^2 = 36 Tripled Area - (6(3))^2 = 18^2 = 324. 324/36 = 9

let s = 7, Original Area = 7^2 = 49 Tripled Area - (7(3))^2 = 21^2 = 2,401. 2,401/49 = 9

You can continue to increase the length of the square and follow this pattern and it will be consistent.

DochEvi [55]
1 yard = 3 feet
2/3 of a yard would be 2 feet

4.5 yards = 13.5 feet
13.5-2 = 11.5 feet

11.5 feet = 3.83 yards

therefore at least 11.5 feet or 3.83 yards must be purchased
