Answer:

Hope this answers the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring a number: If you use the number 10, for example, you have to find all the factors to factor it. 1, 2, 5, 10.

Factoring a trinomial: If you use the trinomial x^2 + 16 + 64, for example, to factor it you need to first find what numbers multiply up to 64 and also add up to 16. In this case, those numbers are 8, and so you get (x + 8)^2.

Given the quadratic equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20%3D%202%28x%20-1%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%2B%208" id="TexFormula1" tit

Answer:

Part 1) "a" value is $2$

Part 2) The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

Part 3) The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

Part 4) The vertex is a minimum

Part 5) The quadratic equation in standard form is $y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

$y=a(x-h)^{2}+k$

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

if a > 0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

if a < 0 then the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The equation of the axis of symmetry of a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

$x=h$

In this problem we have

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$ -----> this is the equation in vertex form of a vertical parabola

The value of $a=2$

a>0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

$(h,k)=(1,8)$

The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

The equation of a vertical parabola in standard form is equal to

$y=ax^{2}+bx+c$

Convert vertex form in standard form

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$

$y=2(x^{2}-2x+1)+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+2+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

A scale drawing for a rectangular parking lot measures 7 cm by 13. 3 cm. The scale is 1 cm : 25 m. Find the area of the parking

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

58,187.5 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cm : 25 m

7 cm = 25 × 7 m

7 × 25 = 175 m

13.3 × 25 = 332.5 m

area = 332.5 m × 175 m
