In (4, 1) 4 represents x, and 1 represents y
y = 3x + 1
1 = 3(4)+1
1 = 12 + 1
1 ≠ 13 ← sides are not equal so (4, 1) is not a solution to y=3x+1
You find the x coordinates using x = -b/2a = -6/2(-1) = 3
Substitute 3 in the equation and find y
y = -(3^2) + 6(3) - 12 = -9 + 18 - 12 = -3
Vertex (3,-3)
<span>A) y = 3x because the slope (rate of change) is 3. The y-intercept is 0 so we don't necessarily need to add anything else.

So i think here you would FOIL. so -5x^2+10x-5x+10 and then combine like terms :)
<span>f(x)= -2x +1 for f(3)
f(3) = -2(3) + 1 = -5
