We know that equation of a parabola is given by :-
y = a(x-h)² + k
Where (h,k) is the vertex of parabola and (x,y) is any point on its curve.
Given that vertex of parabola is (3,5) and one point (x,y) is (6,-1).
We can plug the given information in the equation of parabola and solve it for value of 'a' :-
-1 = a(6 - 3)² + 5
-1 = a(3)² + 5
-1 = 9a + 5
9a = -1 -5 = -6
a =
a = is the final answer.

Given:
One linear function represented by the table.
Another linear function represented by the graph.
To find:
The greater unit rate and greater y-intercept.
Solution:
Formula for slope (unit rate):
From the given table it is clear that the linear function passes through (0,5) and (5,15). The function intersect the y-axis at (0,15), so the y-intercept is 15.
So, the unit rate of first function is 2.
From the given graph it is clear that the linear function passes through (0,6) and (-4,0). The function intersect the y-axis at (0,6), so the y-intercept is 6.
So, the unit rate of first function is .
Now,
And,
Therefore, the greater unit rate of the two functions is 2. The greater y-intercept of the two functions is 15.
