Because the parabola opens down and the vertex is at (0, 5), we conclude that the correct option is:
y = -(1/8)*x² + 5.
<h3>
Which is the equation of the parabola?</h3>
The relevant information is that we have the vertex at (0, 5), and that the parabola opens downwards.
Remember that the parabola only opens downwards if the leading coefficient is negative. Then we can discard the two middle options.
Now, because the parabola has the point (0, 5), we know that when we evaluate the parabola in x = 0, we should get y = 5.
Then the constant term must be 5.
So the correct option is the first one:
y = -(1/8)*x² + 5.

A proportion is two ratios equivalent to each other
answer:
a. 16.
step-by-step explanation:
32 = 2*2*2*2*2
48 = 2*2*2*2*3
picking out the common factors:
gcf = 2*2*2*2 = 16.
Answer:
JL = 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Since K is the midpoint of JL then JK = KL and
JL = JK + KL = 9x - 1 + 2x + 27 = 11x + 26
solve for x using JK = KL
9x - 1 = 2x + 27 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
7x - 1 = 27 ( add 1 to both sides )
7x = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = 4, hence
JL = 11x + 26 = (11 × 4 ) + 26 = 44 + 26 = 70
