A parabola is a quadratic function, and a quadratic can be expressed in vertex form, which is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the vertex (absolute maximum or minimum point of the quadratic)

In this case we are given that (h,k) is (-5,80) so we have so far:

y=a(x--5)^2+80

y=a(x+5)^2+80, we are also told that it passes through the point (0,-45) so:

-45=a(0+5)^2+80

-45=25a+80  subtract 80 from both sides

-125=25a  divide both sides by 25

-5=a, so now we know the complete vertex form is:

y=-5(x+5)^2+80

The x-intercepts occur when y=0 so:

0=-5(x+5)^2+80  add 5(x+5)^2 to both sides

5(x+5)^2=80  divide both sides by 5

(x+5)^2=16  take the square root of both sides

x+5=±√16  which is

x+5=±4  subtract 5 from both sides

x=-5±4 so the x-intercepts are:

x=-1 and -9

A cheetah ran 275 feet in 3.23 seconds. How fast did the cheetah run in miles per hour? Round your answer to the nearest whole m
yawa3891 [41]
First we convert feet into meters, since 1 feet is 0.3048 m: 275 feet * 0.3048 = 83.82m.

Then we do: 83.82m / 3.23s =  <span>25.9504644 m/s.

Then we convert that into miles per hour by </span>2.23694, so we do:

25.9504644 * 2.23694 = <span>58.0496318.

Then we round it to 58 mph.

So the answer is: The cheetah was running at 58 mph.

Hope this helped! c:</span>
