R ---------E

RE = 16mi
DE = 32 mi

DR^2 = DE^2 - RE^2 = (32mi)^2 - (16mi)^2 = 768 mi^2

DR = √(768 mi^2) = 27.7 mi

Given:
                          Dayton
                                             --32 mi--                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                                Richmond  -- 16 mi--           Easton


I can't draw a line but the figure drawn based on the given description is a RIGHT TRIANGLE.

Richmond to Easton is the short leg.
Dayton to Easton is the hypotenuse.
Richmond to Dayton is the long leg.

We are looking for the measure of the long leg. We will use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²
a² + 16² = 32²
a² + 256 = 1,024
a² = 1,025 - 256
a² = 768 mi²
a = √768 mi²
a = 27.71 mi   This is the distance of Dayton from Richmond

Find the equation f(x) = a(x - h)2 + k for a parabola containing point (3, 6) and having (1, -2) as a vertex. What is the standa
nlexa [21]

f(x) = 2 x^{2} -4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given, f(x) = a(x - h)2 + k

Point on the parabola is (3, 6)

Vertex (h,k) = (1,-2)

Step 2:

Substituting the vertex in the equation we have,

f(x) = a(x-1)2 -2

Substituting the point (3,6) in this we have,

6 = a(3-1)2 - 2 => 6 = 4a -2

=>  4a = 8 => a = 2

Step 3 :

Substituting the value for a and the vertex in the given equation we have

f(x) = 2(x-1)2 -2 = 2(x2 - 2x + 1) -2 = 2x2 - 4x

=> f(x) = 2 x^{2} -4x  which is the standard form
